I haven't heard of PFAS before but the findings kind of sounds straightforward? If something that can be synthesised by the body gets contaminated by external pollutants, it should get purer by removing part of the contaminated material since it's going to be replaced by newly synthesised supplies and result in dilution of the pollutant.
In other words, dilution is solution of pollution[0]

- gremlinsinc 5y agoPFAS is teflon. If you ever cooked w/ teflon pans you probably ingested some PFAS directly from that. It's called 'forever chemicals' because it doesn't degrade, it's literally there forever (or nearly), very hard to get rid of. There's a really good documentary called Dark Waters about a lawyer for the Chemical industry who switches sides after his home town has a lot of people get sick from Dupont poisoining people and he's been fighting a crusade against them ever since. It stars Anne Hathaway and Mark Ruffalo.
