PFAS exposure has been linked to various serious health issues, including certain cancers, reproductive and developmental harm, and immune system damage. The U.S. Department of Defense updated its requirements for firefighting foam in January 2023, but the harm caused by PFAS persists. These chemicals remain in the body for years and can continue to develop into health problems. Scientific studies have connected PFAS exposure to the following conditions:
Kidney cancer
Liver cancer
Testicular cancer
Thyroid disease and thyroid cancer
Ulcerative colitis
