Researchers from the University of California, Riverside, confirmed that exposure to plastic materials has a role in high cholesterol, and thus cardiovascular disease.
The research team concluded that substances such as "Bisphenol A" and phthalates may increase the risk of heart disease in humans.
The team conducted a study, considered the first of its kind, to determine the relationship between exposure to DCHP, high cholesterol levels, and heart disease.
The scientists explained that their study provides a new understanding of the impact of chemicals associated with plastic on high cholesterol and the risk of cardiovascular disease.
The importance of this study comes from the fact that it highlights another serious threat related to plastics, which increases the focus on environmental and health issues.
