113: PFAS Exposure and Adolescent Bone Mineral Density Susceptibility Periods
from Listen, Learn, Adapt · host Anthony Novello
This episode dissects a clinical research article that investigates the impact of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on the bone mineral density of children as they enter adolescence. By tracking 218 participants from birth to age 12, researchers evaluated how exposure to these "forever chemicals" at different developmental stages correlates with skeletal health.
