Toxins in the environment

Environmental toxins are harmful substances found in air, water, soil, and even in plants and animals. They originate from sources like pollution, industrial activities, pesticides, and waste. These toxins can enter our bodies through inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact, potentially causing health issues such as respiratory problems, allergic reactions, or long-term illnesses. Understanding and limiting exposure to environmental toxins is important for maintaining overall health and protecting ecosystems from damage.
