Endocrine disruptors, which are a global problem for the environment and human health, have attracted more attention, especially in recent years. Endocrine disrupting chemicals accumulate in the environment and ecosystem, threatening the health of living things and causing the extinction of some species. There are endocrine-disrupting chemicals in the structure of some products that we frequently use daily. In this case, there may be chronic exposure to these factors. Studies on the effects of endocrine disruptors on health are increasing daily. Although the first studies on this subject were on the reproductive system, today, there are many studies that reveal its effects on obesity, diabetes, cancer, immune system disorders, and cardiovascular and neurological diseases. As a result, more awareness should be raised about endocrine disruptors, and precautions should be taken in order to protect and improve public health. For this purpose, educating and raising awareness of producers and consumers is among the most important tasks of our present and future. Under the auspices of the Turkish Academy of Sciences (TÜBA), a multidisciplinary and comprehensive approach was used to examine the links between endocrine disruptors and health in this 16-chapter book written by scientists who are experts in their respective disciplines.
