    Abstract Environmental toxicant exposure, according to many researchers in the field, is the leading cause of chronic disease and premature death globally. For the purposes of this review, we will use obesity and type 2 diabetes as examples of toxicant-induced chronic diseases. Endocrine Disrupting chemicals (EDCs) such as phthalates and bisphenols, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) have been linked to increased risk for obesity and type 2 diabetes in both animal and large epidemiologic studies. These two conditions are well-documented examples of evidence for mechanisms of both adipose metabolism disruption and pancreatic cell dysfunction. The implications for health care directives to both identify, prevent, and treat these exposures are reviewed.

    Abstract Background: The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recommended lowering their estimated tolerable daily intake (TDI) for bisphenol A (BPA) 20,000-fold to
    Objectives: We identify the flaws in the assumptions that the German BfR, as well as the FDA, have used to justify maintaining the TDI for BPA at levels above what a vast amount of academic research shows to cause harm. We argue that regulatory agencies need to incorporate 21st century science into chemical hazard identifications using the CLARITY-BPA (Consortium Linking Academic and Regulatory Insights on BPA Toxicity) nonguideline academic studies in a collaborative government-academic program model.
    Discussion: We strongly endorse EFSA's revised TDI for BPA and support the European Commission's (EC) apparent acceptance of this updated BPA risk assessment. We discuss challenges to current chemical risk assessment assumptions about EDCs that need to be addressed by regulatory agencies to, in our opinion, become truly protective of public health. Addressing these challenges will hopefully result in BPA, and eventually other structurally similar bisphenols (called regrettable substitutions) for which there are known adverse effects, being eliminated from all food-related and many other uses in the EU and elsewhere. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP13812.
