When I hear talking about forever chemicals, they are usually described as “chemicals are not affected by naturally occurring reactions, and that accumulate in the bodies of living beings”. By accumulating, they cause all sorts of health issues.
What I don’t understand is how they cause these health issues. If these chemicals do not participate in regular reactions, how do they cause issues?
I am not claiming that the research in the subject is wrong, I am missing the link between “these things don’t react with anything” and “these things still cause all sorts of health problems”.

I believe it is due to the fact that they replace the spot of other chemicals but , since they are now stable they do not interact with the environment as expected, since they are different chemicals.
Much like replacing a sprocket with a cilinder with no teeth, so it can no longer engage to those around it.
