Household Chemicals
Cleaning products, fragrances, pesticides, and off-gassing materials.
Why it matters
Endocrine disruptors (phthalates, parabens, BPA) are common in household products. Cumulative low-dose exposure may affect hormone signaling.
What is known
Individual chemical effects are documented. Cumulative 'chemical load' in real-world mixtures is harder to study. Simple swaps (fragrance-free, glass storage, HEPA filtration) reduce exposure.
