📊 Infographics & Fact Sheets on Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals

Complex science can feel overwhelming, but visuals make it easier to understand. That is why we have developed a series of fact sheets and infographics that translate technical research into clear, accessible formats.

Whether you are a student learning the basics, a professor teaching endocrine disruption, a policy advocate, or simply someone concerned about the health of your family and community, these resources are designed to help you. Each PDF offers accurate, concise, and compelling illustrations and knowledge that highlight key findings and practical takeaways.

By combining scientific rigor with visual clarity, our goal is to make knowledge about endocrine-disrupting chemicals and related topics available to everyone, empowering informed choices and meaningful conversations.

Where EDCs Come From?

EDCs are ubiquitous in modern life. They are found in plastics, pesticides, flame retardants, food packaging, personal care products, and cleaning supplies. Many of these chemicals trace their origins to petroleum-based manufacturing processes. Even seemingly innocuous items, such as, receipt paper, non-stick cookware, and fragranced products can contain EDCs. 

Routes of Exposure to EDCs

EDCs can enter our bodies through everyday pathways, and understanding these routes is essential for awareness and prevention.

This infographic shows where EDCs come from,  where we encounter them, and the routes they enter our body. Download An Introduction to EDCs Fact Sheet.

Introduction to Parabens Fact Sheet

Parabens are a group of synthetic preservatives widely used in cosmetics, personal care products, and even some pharmaceuticals. They help prevent the growth of bacteria and mould, extending shelf life, but their ability to mimic oestrogen, albeit thousands to millions of times weaker than natural hormones, has raised concerns about potential endocrine-disrupting effects. 

This fact sheet breaks down the complex science behind parabens into clear visuals and concise explanations. Download Parabens Fact Sheet.
