Description

Sergio Gómez-Olarte and six co-authors review how everyday chemical mixes may affect health and fertility through the immune system, in a 2024 paper. The chemicals in question can disturb hormone signals in the body. They are found widely in the environment. Links have been drawn to brain growth problems, weight and sugar issues, and some cancers.

Most past studies looked at single chemicals, the authors note. Real life exposes people to complex mixes. A large funded project, ENDOMIX, aims to close that gap. It blends human group data with cell and animal tests. The review sets out what is known about fertility and immune tolerance. It then shows how the project plans to test mix effects as a whole, rather than one chemical at a time.
