This paper reviewed various studies on the effects of endocrine disruptors on human health, focusing on accelerated aging in the younger generation. In particular, we analyzed how the modern lifestyle and ignorance of endocrine disruptors in the younger generation are accelerating aging, and how the concentration of endocrine disruptor exposure in the human body affects the body's burden. Based on existing papers, we conducted a systematic review using Web of Science, Google Scholar, and Scopus to comprehensively investigate and summarize the definition of endocrine disruptors, their effects on hormones, and the physical burden of continuous exposure to endocrine disruptors. Research has shown that persistent exposure to endocrine disruptors disrupts homeostasis in the body and creates oxidative stress that can lead to aging and chronic inflammation. These characteristics were also found to be significant in the observation of telomere length, which is a measure of aging. Therefore, in order to prevent accelerated aging in the younger generation, we can suggest ways to minimize exposure to endocrine disruptors and slow down normal aging in the entire public health, including the 3040s, in the long term.
