Study: 3 thousand hazardous substances leaking to the human body due to food packaging
The results of a new study published in Journal of Exposition Science, performed by a group of international scientists, have shown that more than 3,000 chemicals are likely to be harmful to the human body due to food packaging, without being linked to cancer or other diseases. The researchers found traces of blood and hair samples and even breast milk, and the discovered materials include: flying metals and organic compounds, Birfloro limeille and phthalates, and many other substances known to disable the endocrine glands and cause cancer or other diseases. The study did not directly investigate the link with these diseases, but some researchers believe that their stock can help chemicals in future research on health risks. Human exposure to artificial chemicals has become common in daily life, whether through food, medicine or home and personal products, as well as pollution of the environment, and exposure to some of these substances is related to an increase in the spread of non -infective diseases, such as cancer and endocrine diseases. Among these sources, food packaging material and other products that come into contact with food are an excellent source of these chemicals, as the chemicals used in the production of these products are transferred to food and then consumed. Over the years, the effect of some chemicals such as “bisphenol” and “vikalat” has been extensively studied, as it has been proven to be transferred from food packaging materials to the foods we consume, taking into account the existence of other exposure sources to these substances. Although ‘Bishenol’ is known as BPA in some uses, such as children’s bottles, this substance is still measured in many packaging products in many parts of the world. The European Commission is currently proposing a complete ban on food packaging. But the problem is not just limited to ‘pisfenol’; Hundreds of other chemicals transferred from food packaging material to food have been detected, with more than 12,000 harmful chemicals that are deliberately used for the manufacture of these substances, in addition to other chemicals that may unintentionally exist as a result of manufacturing or use processes. Many of these chemicals pose a danger to human health; Due to its harmful properties, such as causing cancer, genetic mutations, or affecting the reproductive capacity, as well as hormonal effects, is the ability to build biologically and remain in the environment for long periods. Chemical compounds associated with food indicate the extensive evidence mentioned in that study that the presence of chemical compounds associated with food in human samples, after 3601 chemical compounds from 14402 known compounds with 25%. Among these vehicles, 194 compounds were discovered through biomedical supervision programs, 3528 connections were listed in databases, with 184 general connections between both categories, and 63 out of 175 boats were also traced as a priority to detect in scientific studies. This analysis shows that 23% of vehicles listed in the harmful material database and 41% of vehicles in the base of chemical vehicles leaking in the area; Their presence was recorded in humans, while the vehicles that appeared in both rules indicate that 67% of them were found in human samples. The study also indicates that 75% of the well -known food associations associated with well -known foods are not included in any of the important monitoring programs or databases. Of the 175 priority, scientific evidence was found to confirm the presence of 63 of them in human samples, and these compounds were observed in samples of urine (28 compounds), blood serum (20 compounds), blood (13 compounds), plasma (12 compounds) and chemical compounds were found in human milk (13 compounds), samples of the cord of the cord of the cord of the Umbilian cord of the cord placenta (6) vehicles). Food and human health packaging under the chemicals has discovered fluorine compounds, volatile organic compounds and other vehicles used in food packaging and plastic products. The risk of these compounds differs according to their chemical properties and its potential effects for human health; Volatile organic vehicles such as “steer” are considered a source of healthy anxiety, as many studies have classified these materials as carcinogens. Because of its toxic effects on health. PFOA (PFOA) is one of the prominent examples of the materials discovered in this study, and is classified as a potential carcinogen. These compounds not only affect the liver and kidneys, but can contribute to endocrine disorders, leading to health problems associated with birth, and the effects of these substances extend to future generations, as research indicates the possibility of their negative impact on growth and reproductive functions. Plastic alternative arouses special concerns when it comes to reproductive health, and it can cause infertility, and some of them are classified as carcinogens or toxic substances affecting the childbirth as it is associated with negative hormonal effects leading to disorders in growth and reproduction, as these substances play a role in the disruption in the body, which contributes Health problems, especially sexual and sexual and sexual problems with sexual problems with sexual problems. The researchers have also discovered the presence of some substances that also pose a major threat to public health, and these compounds are related to the hormonal system in the body, leading to an increased risk of serious illnesses, including cancer, and the effect of these substances extends to many vital systems in the body, causing them one of the factors that cause many hormones. The researchers also discovered the presence of ‘dioxin’, which also poses a threat to public health, as it occurs in many plastic products and foods, and they are considered toxic to organs and have carcinogenic properties, making it exposure to risks in the long run. Previous research states that eating or inhaling these compounds can lead to multiple health problems, including respiratory and digestive diseases. In this study, it was emphasized that the exposure to humans is linked to some chemical compounds to food packaging and other foods. According to the study, people are likely to be exposed to more of these compounds; It has been reported. This study contributes to the bridging of gaps associated with knowledge associated with the health effects caused by chemicals in contact with foods, by creating a new database that includes the chemicals monitored in humans, and helps this data to better understand the effects of these compounds on human health. Among the important points discussed in this study are; The issue of comparing the maternal compounds with molitors- a material is produced or used when the body analyzes food, medication or chemicals- caused by chemical transformation within the human body. The talkers are usually monitored instead of the mother connections, because the latter provides a series of chemical reactions that change their nature, but there are still challenges to predict the potential of potential of many complex chemical compounds, and in many cases the Molitors have not been analyzed, which increases the lack of scientific certainty about the impact of these substances on human health. The study also contains chemical compounds that work in materials such as covers and adhesives, and despite the presence of these compounds in food packaging material, studies that are looking for their presence in human samples are still rare. However, there is evidence that some of these substances can have serious effects on health, such as the ‘benzovinon’ connection, which is presumably carcinogenic, and that it can cause hormonal disorders. Data deficit and an unknown level of risk, but the biggest challenge lies in the lack of data associated with the safety of many of these materials, which is difficult to assess its safe use. The study indicates that there are large gaps on many of these compounds, especially with regard to long -term effects for health, although there are some evidence that some compounds can be transferred by M to the human body, food packaging Valley, but the danger level you can cause is still completely unknown. There are also other chemicals such as the “members” arising from polymerization tillage, which can have toxic effects; But the study of its presence in humans is still very limited; Due to the problems of analyzing human monsters. Among the other vehicles discussed in the study are those associated with polymerizing reactions in food packaging material, and these compounds can be toxic and have hormone -stalled consequences, or cause genetic mutations, but the information available about their toxicity and its impact on human health is still limited. With the increasing dependence on artificial materials in the food industries and packaging materials, many concerns about the health effects of these materials have emerged when transferred from packaging materials to foods that people consume, but the lack of adequate data on the safety of these materials makes it difficult to evaluate the exact safety of it. Although some materials have undergone extensive studies on their health effects; However, the problem lies in the presence of thousands of other chemicals that are unintentional in manufacturing processes, or those that are indirectly added to food; It is known as ‘unintended materials’ that are difficult to evaluate their safety; Due to the lack of adequate data on its chemical properties and its impact on human health. Without reliable scientific data, it becomes very difficult to determine the safe levels of using these materials, or even determine whether some materials should be prohibited or limited to use, which makes almost impossible to make comprehensive risk evaluation, which is necessary to ensure consumer safety. Due to the lack of adequate data on many of these chemicals, lawmakers have major challenges in developing regulatory laws aimed at protecting consumers. In many countries, current legislation requires to provide extensive data on the safety of materials used in the food industry, but if this data is not available, organizational authorities cannot make decisions based on a solid scientific basis. Some chemicals known for their danger, such as BPA, are banned in some products such as children’s bottles in different countries, but there are still hundreds of other materials that are widely used without adequate reviews on its impact on human health. The problem is exacerbated by sluggish progress in scientific research related to these subjects; Compared to the rapid rate of the development of food industries and packaging materials. The new study has succeeded in creating a database known as the ‘chemical monitoring of chemical database in human torque material’, which provides information on the chemicals discovered in human samples through biological monitoring programs and scientific research. The purpose of this study is to give a scientific guide that contributes to improving the regulation of chemicals associated with food packaging at a global level, and to safely Ids assessments to improve these materials, and the study discussed challenges related to the interpretation of data due to the various sources on which were relied on. Although there are strict biological monitoring programs, a limited number of chemicals are regularly monitored, making it difficult to determine the health effects of all used chemical compounds, in addition to these databases associated with the volatile, the thousands of materials collected in different ways, which increase the challenge of verifying the accuracy of this data. The study emphasizes the need to take more striking regulatory measures for the use of dangerous chemical compounds in food packaging and other foods in contact with foods, saying that the authorities should fill the gaps in data associated with the risk of these materials about health, especially those that are clearly found in human samples.
