How are People Exposed to Endocrine Disruptors?
People may be exposed to endocrine disruptors through the food and beverages they consume, medicine they take, and cosmetics they use. So, exposures may be through the diet, air, and skin. Some environmental endocrine disrupting chemicals, such as DDT, are highly persistent and slow to degrade in the environment making them potentially hazardous over an extended period of time.
