Toxic ‘forever chemicals’ linked to low birth weight, reduced sperm counts and infertility
Several brands of condoms and lubricants contain alarming levels of toxic PFAS “forever chemicals”, including styles of Trojan and K-Y Jelly, new research finds.
The testing conducted by the Mamavation consumer advocacy blog comes just as researchers found human skin absorbs the chemicals at much higher levels than previously thought.
Penis and vagina skin is thin and the organs have a high level of blood vessels, which makes them particularly dangerous organs to expose to PFAS, Linda Birnbaum, a science adviser for Mamavation who previously ran the Environmental Protection Agency’s toxicology program, wrote in the report.
Thanks for sharing!
Why in all that’s holy do they link to Amazon??? If these things are clearly bad for me, why are you making me buy it?
I fucking hate this timeline
NEVER buy anything you put in your body, or anything topical, or anything you would normally buy from a pharmacy or grocery store, from Amazon. They should NOT be allowed to EVER sell anything food or drug related AT ALL, especially if it’s from some third-party seller from who-knows-fuck-where.
