[Audio] #MedicalPlastic Linked to #BreastCancer Relapse

Air Date: Week of December 10, 2021

"Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among women worldwide, and #endocrine disrupting chemicals are partly to blame. One such chemical is #DEHP, a #phthalate chemical commonly used in plastic hospital #IntravenousBags and #MedicalTubing, and a recent study finds that it’s interfering with breast cancer treatment and augmenting the odds of relapse. Pete Myers, the founder and chief scientist of Environmental Health Sciences, talks with Host Steve Curwood about the study findings and how to protect patients from harm caused by endocrine disrupting chemicals."
