What, what do we-- What's the thumbnail? What do we need to know about how these chemicals affect our health? What are they doing to our bodies?

Good question.

Um, so they do a lot of things to our bodies, which is why there's a lot in those paragraphs.

Um, but I-- And I will say the science on how PFAS impact health and toxicology has increased dramatically in the last twenty-five to thirty-fi- thirty years.

Um, we're talking thousands of studies, an almost exponential increase, um, since the early two thousands.

And what we have really good information on at this point is that PFAS can impact our metabolism, so the way that we process glucose or sugar, the way that we process fat or lipids, um, and that has consequences for our metabolic and digestive, uh, concerns, things like, um, uh, liver damage, uh, fatty liver disease, um, high cholesterol.

Uh, gestational diabetes is something that we have a lot of information on now.

Is the science making its way into those, uh, legislative decisions, or is- are you frustrated that it's not finding its way into those discussions? What-w- how does it look from your perspective?
