2023-01-25: PFAS found in organic eggs
PFAS have been found in organic egg yolks. Especially children who eat a lot of organic eggs is the group at most risk. The substances are most likely transferred via fishmeal that is included in the feed for the hens. This is shown by a study from the DTU Food Institute, which was carried out in collaboration with the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration.
The substances are most likely transferred via fishmeal feed. The suspicion for the fishmeal arose because a very uniform concentration and composition of PFAS compounds was found in large herds using organic feed.
