Although high-level exposure to a single toxicant is uncommon, individuals in industrialised nations are constantly exposed to a complex mixture of artificial and naturally occurring endocrine disruptors, such as persistent organic pollutants and heavy metals.  We did a literature analysis to uncover possible links between toxicant exposure and racial inequalities in women’s health since minori..
