Abstract

Abstract Exposure to endocrine disruptors such as bisphenols (BPs), for example, bisphenol A, bisphenol S and bisphenol F in early life may contribute to obesity. BPs are man-made chemicals found in lots of household products including food packaging, drink containers, lotions, toys, plastic PVC flooring and water pipes. Human exposure to these chemicals has been linked to serious adverse health outcomes including cardiovascular disease, abnormal sperm morphology/sperm DNA damage, miscarriage, early puberty, diabetes and obesity.
