Thousands of chemicals from food packaging and utensils have been detected in human bodies, including some known to be hazardous to health, according to a new study published in the Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology.
Out of the more than 14,000 chemicals currently tracked for potential health risks, 3,601 were found in human bodies. This is roughly 25 percent of the total, raising concerns about potential links to non-communicable diseases and reproductive issues, the authors found.
