Can Environmental Toxins Contribute to These Conditions?
Yes, environmental toxins can contribute to the development of heart failure and atrial fibrillation. Persistent organic pollutants, such as dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), have been shown to disrupt endocrine function and induce cardiovascular stress. Airborne particulate matter is another significant factor that can exacerbate existing heart conditions and trigger arrhythmias.
