BPA

A study of 20 participants measured BPA levels in blood, urine and sweat. It was found that overall there was a greater concentration of BPA in sweat vs urine. However, the fact that there were some individuals where it was found either in sweat or urine but not both suggests that the mobilization methods for BPA follow multiple distinct pathways.[1]

It has previously been shown that BPA accumulates in fat tissue almost 3 times as much as in other types of tissues. It is possible that the sweat level may be reflective of accrued toxicants in tissue, whereas urine may reflect in part at least recent exposure which the body is endeavoring to eliminate.[1]
