PFAS are called “forever chemicals” because they can persist in the environment and build up over time.
These chemicals have been used in nonstick cookware, grease-resistant food packaging, stain-resistant materials, water-resistant products, and other everyday items. Long-term PFAS exposure has been associated with health concerns involving cholesterol, liver enzymes, immune response, pregnancy-related effects, and certain cancers.
Your kitchen may be one of the places where avoidable exposure happens most often.
Simple steps you can take today:
Reduce greasy takeout foods served in coated packaging.
Avoid scratched or damaged nonstick cookware.
Use stainless steel, cast iron, or safer cookware alternatives.
Consider water filtration if PFAS is a concern in your area.
At INMUHEALTH, prevention starts with education and routine checkups, including wellness monitoring, lifestyle risk reviews, lab work when needed, and referrals for specialized care.
