PFAS Exposure Lawsuits

What Is PFAS?

PFAS is a toxic chemical that is resistant to grease, oil, water, and heat, making it ideal for use in a variety of products such as carpeting, cleaning products, and firefighting foams, according to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration.

Since PFAS is so effective in fighting flammable liquid fires, such as oil and fuel fires, it has been widely used on military installations, ships, airplanes, airports, and elsewhere.

PFAS persists in the environment, particularly in water and soil. It also persists and can build up in fish, animals, and humans. Many of us have come into contact with various products containing PFAS, such as non-stick cookware or cleaning products. Others possibly endured exposure through working in PFAS manufacturing industries.

What Does PFAS Do to Your Body?

Once someone has come into contact with PFAS, particularly when ingested, it can potentially remain in the body for years and accumulate over time.

Further research is still needed on all the effects that these toxic chemicals can have on our bodies. According to the CDC, animal studies indicate that PFAS can cause changes in the function of the liver, thyroid, pancreas, and hormone levels.

While animals and humans may process toxic chemicals differently, there could be some similarities to what PFAS does to human bodies. The CDC found that exposure to PFAS in humans may also interfere with several functions of the body and could lead to cancer.

The study concluded that elevated PFOA blood levels may be associated with several cancers, such as:

Bladder Cancer
Blood Cancer (any leukemia, lymphoma, or myeloma)
Breast Cancer
Kidney Cancer
Liver Cancer
Pancreatic Cancer
Prostate Cancer
Testicular Cancer
Thyroid Cancer

There may also be links to other serious illnesses, such as:

Preeclampsia
Hypo and Hyperthyroidism
Ulcerative Colitis
