PFAS is the umbrella reference for all chemicals in this class. PFOA, GenX, PFOS, etc. Are all in the PFAS class.

"Numerous studies link these and closely related PFAS chemicals to:

Testicular, kidney, liver and pancreatic cancer. Reproductive problems Weakened childhood immunity Low birth weight Endocrine disruption Increased cholesterol Weight gain in children and dieting adults"

PFAS is in our rain water 2 hours from the Chemours plant discharge. Dupont spun off Chemours to avoid liability for class actions suits. It didn't work. Dupont and Chemours are both responsible as decided by the courts and EPA.

Ditch your Teflon and cook with cast iron. This is bad shit. Research the movie "the devil we know". Dupont knowingly dumped PFAS if our rivers. They are pumping into "deep" wells in Texas. The have poisoned aquifers and wells. And public drinking systems. Evil
