Phthalates Safety on CBS 60 Minutes
CBS Show 60 Minutes covered a feature about Phthalates – a family of chemicals used in everyday plastics. Phthalates are used on soft and flexible things like shower curtains and also in shampoos and carpeting.
Recently the Environmental Protection Agency, EPA, put phthalates on a list of chemicals that “may present a risk” to the environment or human health. That’s because they disrupt hormone activity and some preliminary studies show that they may be causing a slow and steady demasculinizing of men.
