Not so unknown if you've taken the opportunity to read the right material https://www.abebooks.com/9780958333498/p...333491/plp

The PFAS scandal and BPA are my biggest concerns, but literally most forms of plastics contain chemicals that are not exactly good for your health.

One enduring memory of a point made by Meriel in that book is that pesticide safety and residue levels have more to do with expected levels remaining on crops after spray application is made as recommended on the pesticide label's instructions. The connection between that and the level of health risk to humans (and livestock) is loose at best and definitely doesn't take into account the synergist effects of exposure to multiple toxins used in food production which is very much part of modern life's environmental landscape.

The effects of many poisons can be very much increased when other toxic input exist simultaneously. One prime example is for Hi-Cane which is used to promote bud burst in kiwifruit and apples. It is one of the most poisonous agrichemicals used in NZ and combine that with a couple of beers after Hi-Cane and 'Hi-Cane flush' results as your body attempts to rid itself of the toxins you've absorbed.

Most people just don't realise what chemicals are used conventionally grown produce systems.
