What are endocrine disruptors? How do they work? Why have we heard so much about them recently? To what extent can they affect our health, and that of our children? Are companies, institutions and governments doing enough to prevent our continued exposure to them? What can we do to prevent them and protect our health and that of our families?
Dr. Nicolás Olea, Professor of Radiology and Physical Medicine at the University of Granada, leads a multidisciplinary group that studies the environment and health, paying special attention to the relationship between endocrine disruptors and cancer. Dr. Olea is one of the world's leading authorities on the subject. In this book he offers guidelines for identifying chemical pollutants, understanding how they act and knowing how to avoid them, and helps to debunk false myths and misleading advertising about them. As a practical guide, it provides recommendations aimed at eliminating these pollutants from our daily lives.
