Fast Food Identified as a Significant Source of Hormone-Disrupting Chemicals

Story at-a-glance -

People who got at least 35 percent of their calories from fast food in a 24-hour period had nearly 24 percent higher levels of DEHP and 39 percent higher DiNP in their urine than those who had not consumed any fast food
Animal studies show exposure to the phthalate metabolite DEHP can damage the liver, kidneys, lungs, and reproductive system, particularly the developing testes of prenatal and neonatal males
Recent research has linked both DEHP and DiNP to increased insulin resistance in adolescents
