Dr Joseph Pizzorno is an expert in Environmental Medicine where he assesses the effect of toxic compounds on human health and metabolism. He is well-versed in identifying mitochondrial damage, glutathione depletion, CV disease, respiratory toxicity, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and cognitive impairment tied to specific toxins.
In this 60-minute webinar, Dr Joseph Pizzorno summarizes the GPL-TOX Profile’s compounds that are found most frequently at high levels. The GPL-TOX Profile quantifies the most widespread human-made toxic compounds, including acrolein, acrylamide, bromopropane, MTBE, and perchlorate, followed by phthalates, styrene, and xylene.
Because the GPL-TOX Profile is mainly carried out on individuals who are ill, and these common toxicants are found everywhere, there is no control group to compare disease statistics. The percentages reported are based on NHANES population data from the CDC (except for MTBE/ETBE) collected on the general US population, as opposed to individuals with measurable workplace exposure.
