PFAS, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are a group of man-made chemicals that have become ubiquitous in our environment and our bodies. They are often referred to as "forever chemicals" because they do not break down easily and can persist in the environment and living organisms for very long periods.
Origins of PFAS
PFAS chemicals have been manufactured and used in a wide range of industrial and consumer products since the 1940s. Their unique properties, such as water and grease resistance, have made them valuable in numerous applications. Common sources include:
- Non-stick cookware
- Food packaging
- Stain-resistant carpets and upholstery
- Waterproof clothing
- Firefighting foam
- Industrial processes and manufacturing
Pathways of Ingestion
Due to their widespread use and persistence, PFAS can enter our bodies through several pathways:
- Contaminated Food: PFAS can leach from food packaging into the food itself. They can also be present in food grown in contaminated soil or water, or from animals that have been exposed to PFAS.
- Contaminated Water: PFAS are commonly found in drinking water sources, especially near industrial sites, airports, and military bases where firefighting foam has been used.
- Household Dust: PFAS can be released from consumer products into indoor dust, which can then be inhaled or ingested.
- Consumer Products: Direct contact with products containing PFAS, such as certain cosmetics or clothing, can lead to exposure.
The Harmful Impact of PFAS
The persistence of PFAS in the body means they can accumulate over time, leading to a range of potential health concerns. Research has linked PFAS exposure to:
- Immune system suppression, potentially reducing vaccine effectiveness
- Increased risk of certain cancers, including kidney and testicular cancer
- Liver damage
- Thyroid disease
- Increased cholesterol levels
- Reproductive and developmental issues
- Reduced fertility
- Increased risk of obesity
The exact mechanisms by which PFAS cause harm are still being researched, but it is understood that they can interfere with the body's endocrine system and immune functions.
How Do I Know If I Have PFAS in My System?
The reality is, due to their widespread presence in consumer goods and the environment, virtually everyone has been exposed to PFAS. The pervasive nature of these chemicals means that even with careful choices, significant exposure is almost unavoidable. Many people discover the extent of their PFAS exposure through specialized testing, such as DNA testing, which can reveal levels of these persistent chemicals in the body. This can be a truly eye-opening experience, especially when one believes they are making healthy choices regarding diet and cooking.
We are often unknowingly exposed through everyday items we take for granted. Non-stick cookware, food storage containers, and even the packaging that wraps our meats and other foods can leach these "forever chemicals" into our system. It's a stark realization that what we believe to be safe and healthy can, in fact, be contributing to our toxic load. So, what, if anything, can we do about it?
Strategies for Purging Toxins and Supporting the Body
While completely eliminating PFAS exposure is challenging given their pervasiveness, several strategies can help minimize intake and support the body's natural detoxification processes. These include:
- Grow as much of your own fresh food as possible, or go to a local farmers market, just make sure to ask questions about how those farmers grow their food.
- Choosing fresh, whole foods over processed foods, especially those with potentially contaminated packaging.
- Using water filters certified to remove PFAS.
- Avoiding non-stick cookware.
- Wiping down household surfaces regularly to reduce dust.
The body's natural detoxification systems, particularly the liver and kidneys, work to eliminate toxins. However, these systems can be overwhelmed, especially by persistent chemicals like PFAS. Supporting these organs and enhancing the body's ability to neutralize and eliminate harmful substances is crucial.
How These 3 products can help: GRW/ AIR/ ALT
The Acumullit SA® technology used in APLGO products creates highly bioavailable micro-particles that are designed to be easily absorbed by the body. While these products are not designed to "purge" specific toxins like PFAS right away, they can offer supportive benefits through their nutrient profiles and the properties of their natural ingredients, particularly related to immune support and cellular health.
GRW
GRW is formulated with ingredients that are known to support the body's natural immune response and promote overall well-being. Ingredients like Astragalus Root and Echinacea Root are recognized for their immune-modulating properties. Ashwagandha and Black Currant are included, which can contribute to cellular health and antioxidant support. By strengthening the body's overall defenses and promoting cellular health, GRW can indirectly aid the body in managing the stress caused by environmental toxins.
AIR
AIR is designed to support a healthy immune system and the body's natural ability to remove toxins. Ingredients like Cranberry and Goji Berries are rich in antioxidants, which can help combat oxidative stress that may be exacerbated by toxin exposure. Vitamin C and Zinc are well-known for their roles in immune function. The inclusion of African White Aloe and Rosa Majalis can contribute to cellular renewal. AIR's support for detoxification pathways can be beneficial in assisting the body's natural processes.
ALT
ALT focuses on supporting the body's natural defenses against environmental factors and promoting a healthy immune response. Green Tea and Grape Seeds are potent sources of antioxidants and bioflavonoids, which can help neutralize free radicals. Scutellaria and Astragalus Root are traditionally used to support immune function. By bolstering these systems, ALT can help the body become more resilient to the damaging effects of various environmental stressors, including those from PFAS.
While Acumullit SA® products can contribute to a stronger, more resilient system. The highly absorbable nutrients and botanical compounds in GRW, AIR, and ALT can support the body's natural detoxification mechanisms, enhance immune function, and promote cellular health, thereby assisting the body in its efforts to manage and mitigate the impacts of environmental toxins.
