DESCRIPTION: Foods of animal origin (especially fish) appear to be the most important source of human exposure to industrial pollutants such as alkylphenol xenoestrogens.

See my last video Alkylphenol Endocrine Disruptors and Allergies (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/alkyl...) for background on this class of xenoestrogens.

Endocrine disruptors have also been linked to conditions such as male infertility (Male Fertility and Diet, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/male-... and Xenoestrogens and Sperm Counts, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/xenoe...) and early onset of puberty (Protein, Puberty, and Pollutants, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/prote... and Xenoestrogens and Early Puberty, http://nutritionfacts.org/video/xenoe...).

What other industrial pollutants build up in the aquatic fish chain? See, for example:

• Fukushima and Radioactivity in Seafood (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/fukus...)
• Fish Intake Associated With Brain Shrinkage (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/fish-...)
• Mercury vs. Omega 3s for Brain Development (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/mercu...)
• Food Sources of PCB Chemical Pollutants (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/food-...)
• Food Sources of Perfluorochemicals (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/food-...)
• Obesity Causing Pollutants in Food (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/obesi...)
• The Problem with Organic Salmon (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-p...)
• Food Sources of Flame Retardant Chemicals (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/food-...)
• Dioxins in the Food Supply (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/dioxi...)

Farmed Fish vs. Wild Caught (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/farme...). Which is worse?

Breast feeding is one way to offload toxins, but it is The Wrong Way to Detox (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-w...).
