Household Toxins


Children are at highest risk from the effects of toxins, but others at high risk include the elderly, pregnant women, those with chronic disease in any organ, cancer patients and those with allergies, migraines and asthma. The remainder of the population is also at risk when exposed to chemicals on a daily basis in their homes.

Most of us assume that if products are sold in stores, they are safe; and that our government has laws to protect us against harmful products. But, unfortunately, most of the chemicals in ordinary products that we use or are exposed to every day have not been tested for safety. What's worse, for years the chemical industry has known the toxic effects of many chemicals used in products today, but never revealed their studies to the public or to the government.

Here is a list of some commonly used personal care and dental hygiene products, and household cleaning products and the toxins contained in them:

DOVE BEAUTY BAR Quaternium 15; Formaldehyde-Carcinogen. Causes cancer, dermatitis, neurotoxin, and sensitizer - poisonous, irritant to the skin, eyes and mucous membranes. Butylated Hydroxytoluene, (BHT) Carcinogen.

JOHNSON'S BABY SHAMPOO Quaternium 15; FD&C RED 40: Carcinogen and causes dermatitis.

CREST TARTAR CONTROL TOOTHPASTE Saccharin: Carcinogen, contains Phenol. If you accidentally swallow more than a pea-sized amount of this, you must contact the Poison Control Center immediately. This warning does not appear on the tube!

TIDE AND CHEER DETERGENT Detergent: Can cause temporary respiratory tract irritation. Symptoms include stinging, swelling or redness. Sodium silicate: Can be corrosive. Can cause burns to the eyes and tissue damage to the skin, as well as cause burns to the mouth, throat and stomach if swallowed. Sodium Sulfate: Corrosive: Severe eye, skin and respiratory irritant. Can cause asthma attacks. Thisodium Nitrilotriacetate: Carcinogen Note: Tide powder contains fiberglass. If you use this and you are sweaty and itchy, it's the fiberglass in your clothing from the laundry detergent!

FANTASTIC Formula 409: Butyl Cellosolve: Neurotoxin. Eye and skin irritant. Damages central nervous system, kidney and liver. Readily absorbed through the skin. Damages blood and body's ability to make blood - listed as a pesticide.

WINDEX AEROSOL GLASS CLEANER Butyl Cellosolve (see above) Isobutene: Neurotoxin.

LYSOL DISINFECTANT Dioxin; Carcinogen, 500,000 times more deadly than DDT. Ethyl Alcohol: Eye, Skin, and respiratory tract irritant.

Just think about this statement: Funeral directors are now saying, "The levels of formaldehyde in our bodies have increased so much so that we now only use half the required amounts in preservation."

Each year nearly 1.5 million accidental ingestions of poisons are reported to U.S. Poison Control Centers. The majority of the victims are under the age of 12 and have swallowed a cleaning or personal care product.
