Answer:

They can lead to health problems such as liver damage, thyroid disease, obesity, fertility issues and cancer

Step-by-step explanation:

PFAS are man-made chemicals that have been used in industry and consumer products worldwide since the 1940s. They have been used to make nonstick cookware, water-repellent clothing, stain resistant fabrics and carpets, some cosmetics, some firefighting foams, and products that resist grease, water, and oil.
