Organophosphate Esters and Thyroid Disease Risk
Published 2 years, 3 months ago
Description
A recent study published in Frontiers in Endocrinology has uncovered a link between Organophosphate Esters and increased thyroid disease.
Organophosphate esters are commonly found in products such as flame retardants for furniture and textiles, plasticizers in polymers, hydraulic fluids, and some pesticides. I discuss how our health is being impacted and what we can do to reduce the risk of thyroid disease.
