Medicine's Ryan Marino clarifies online concern over polyester

Polyester clothing has been causing a stir online. But how valid are the concerns?

NPR: Ryan Marino, associate professor of medicine at the School of Medicine and toxicologist, shared his medical opinion when it comes to the dangers of polyester. "Unless you are living near a landfill, or dealing with large quantities of polyester … you are not going to encounter a dose of those compounds that is likely to cause significant health concerns," Marino said.
