Chemical Stress Exposure

Meaning

Chemical Stress Exposure denotes the physiological impact resulting from contact with exogenous chemical agents that induce a state of cellular or systemic toxicity. This exposure is particularly relevant in the hormonal health space where xenobiotics, or foreign chemical substances, can directly interfere with the delicate balance of the endocrine system. The resulting biological stress response requires the body to divert energy and resources to detoxification and repair pathways. Chronic exposure, even at low doses, poses a cumulative threat to long-term health and wellness.
