Concentration is usually the biggest concern- "the dose makes the poison", so to speak. Unfortunately, the "forever" moniker is earned because these chemicals don't readily break down. Bio-accumulation is inevitable, which makes it that much harder to determine what a "safe" level of exposure is. Even so, I don't think the jury is out yet on what the effects of exposure to many of them even are, though several seem to influence hormone levels at least.

  Hmm, I suppose that the jury isn't out yet would imply that the trial is ongoing.

    I appreciate the defense, but idioms are not something I am great at, and definitely goofed this one.
