Environmental Working Group (EWG) 6d ago

From hundreds of chemicals found in umbilical cord blood to the crisis of contamination of drinking water with the “forever chemicals” known as PFAS, EWG has been sounding the alarm on chemicals found in human bodies for decades. In the latest episode, Ken is joined by Dr. Jabeen Taiba, author of a recent study titled "Exploring the Joint Association Between Agrichemical Mixtures and Pediatric Cancer." Dr. Taiba is a postdoctoral research associate with the University of Nebraska's Water, Climate and Health program, trained as a multidisciplinary researcher with a background in epidemiology and experience in clinical research, public health, and large data sets. She and Ken discuss why assessing chemicals individually, rather than as real-world mixtures, can overlook serious health effects. #pesticides #enviromentalworkinggroup #cancerresearch #foreverchemicals #pfas
