HUNTINGTON, N.Y., Feb. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Why is PFAS bad?
One common characteristic of concern of PFAS is that many break down very slowly and build up in people, animals, and the environment over time. Current peer-reviewed scientific studies show that exposure to PFAS leads to:
- Interference with the body's natural hormones
- Increased cholesterol levels and risk of obesity
- Reproductive effects such as decreased fertility and increased high blood pressure in pregnant women
- Developmental effects in children including low birth weight, accelerated puberty, bone variations
- Increased risk of cancer
- Weakens immune system
- Reduces antibody response to vaccines
Emerald's line of tree-free plates, bowls, clamshells, cups, and food containers are just a small sample of our products that feature no added PFAS and are compliant with newly adopted New York and California PFAS Laws. Similar laws have already been introduced and have passed in other states.
