Dioxins are chemical compounds produced by combustion processes involving chlorine. They are found in incineration, manufacturing chlorinated chemicals like PVC, and other chlorine-using processes like paper bleaching. Dioxins can cause reproductive, developmental, and health issues like cancer and interfere with hormones. Animal products are a major source of dioxin exposure for humans. Reducing consumption of fatty animal products and having a balanced diet can help prevent overexposure to dioxins, which are very persistent environmental pollutants.

2. TO START WHAT IS?
• Dioxins are chemical compounds that are produced from
combustion processes that involve chlorine.
. they are persistent environmental pollutants.

3. WHERE CAN DIOXIN BE FOUND?
• Dioxins are produced by incineration, during the manufacture of chlorinated
chemicals, especially PVC, and in other processes that use chlorine, such as
paper bleaching.

4. WHAT DIOXIN DOES TO PEOPLE?
• They can cause
reproductive and
developmental problems,
affect the immune system,
interfere with hormones,
and therefore cause cancer.

5. ANIMALS HAVE A GREAT ROLE!
• Animal products are the major contributors to dioxin intake by humans, as animals
are exposed to these substances all the time.

6. AND FINALLY, HOW CAN WE PREVENT IT??
• Stop fat from meat and consuming low-fat dairy products can reduce dioxin
exposure, and a balanced diet helps prevent overexposure.

7. ¡¡CONCLUSION!!!
• We must stop burning garbage (incinerators) since they generate dioxins, which is
one of the most polluting substances.
How!!!
