'Forever' chemicals in cookware linked to liver cancer in first human study - New York Post

A new study that examined the correlation between liver cancer and the presence of these chemicals in humans found that people with the highest levels of exposure have 350% greater odds of eventually developing the disease.

The current study, published in JHEP Reports, is the first to show a clear association between any PFAS and nonviral hepatocellular carcinoma (the most common type of liver cancer) in humans, too.

“Liver cancer is one of the most serious endpoints in liver disease and this is the first study in humans to show that PFAS are associated with this disease.”.

They reportedly found several types of PFAS among participants, with PFOS appearing most prominently among those in the group with liver cancer.

That’s why many scientists agree it’s no coincidence that the advent and widespread use of “forever” chemicals correlates with a rise in liver disease, cancer and other illnesses.
