Firefighter Health Study

 

Chicago Clinic

 

In this study, we are looking for retired or non-active duty firefighters. Firefighters can be exposed to toxins called Per-and polyfluroalkyl substances (PFAS) through their work environment. This study is exploring how a dietary supplement can support the body's removal of these toxins. 

 

PFAS levels will be measured by a blood test at the first visit. 

 

All participants will receive $600 upon completion of the study. Parking is included.

Study Background

 

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of a dietary supplement on gut health and supporting the body’s natural elimination of compounds from non-natural sources over 12 weeks. 

 

What are PFAs?

PFAS, often called “forever chemicals,” are a large group of man-made chemicals that don’t break down easily, which raises concerns for the environment and human health.

 

What's involved?

The study is divided into two 12-week phases:

  • You will take the study product for 12 weeks

  • Then you will have a 4-week washout break where you won’t take any product

  • After that, you will begin taking the product again for another 12 weeks

  • This means you’ll take the supplement for 24 weeks in total, with a 4-week break in between.

 

Total time commitment: 3.5 hours
