We’re exposed to thousands of chemicals everyday in our Environment, Food and Water. These harmful chemicals wreak havoc on the immune system and brain and if exposure to these dangerous toxins aren’t reduced, we’ll continue to see an increase in acute and degenerative disease. This article will highlight key areas in our lives that are exposed to numerous chemicals which have negative effects on our health. We’ll also identify a few ways that we can begin living better now.
Illness can be traced to one or more of 3 sources; Diet, Genetics or Environment. If the body is constantly dealing with toxins from many sources, there’ll be times when the body can no longer fulfill all its other major functions, leading to premature aging and disease. Ever growing research links brain disease like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Depression and Autism with environmental toxins, chemicals and altered fats in our food supply.
Diet: The problem: There are over 3,000 chemicals added to our food supply today with another 1,000 introduced each year. Some of these include: Aspartame, Chlordane, Fluoride, Dioxins, Pesticides as well as many foods being genetically engineered. Many times these chemicals cause immediate effects such as: Headache, Nausea, Dizziness and Fatigue; but more often build up in our bodies causing long term effects such as: Cancer, Immune System Depression, Muscle and Vision Problems and Reproductive Disorders. Americans can experience up to 70 daily exposures of a class of toxic chemicals known as persistent organic pollutants (POPs).
A Solution: Avoiding all of these chemicals is almost impossible, but there are a few things we can do to reduce our exposure. Choose organic foods and avoid processed and artificial additives. Take the time to learn how to shop smart; buy store brands and shop the coupons. Your eating habits will likely have to change, but you’ll find that organic actually tastes better.
These toxins store up in our bodies at the cellular level and will eventually cause poor health conditions if not eliminated. One thing we can do for this issue is to Cleansethe body of toxins on a regular basis. Replace your Aluminum cooking pans with stainless steel; many studies have linked Aluminum to Alzheimer’s. Eat more fruits and vegetables and try to limit your consumption of canned foods. The fresh fruits and vegetables will help kill free radicals in your body, which build up from toxins. When we begin feeding our body living – clean foods, we’ll begin to feel a difference in our overall health and vitality.
Environment:The Problem: Some of the chemicals we’re exposed to in our environment include: Asbestos, Chlorine, Formaldehyde, Heavy Metals, Lead, Phthalates and VOCs’. According to the EPA, indoor air is 2-5 times more polluted than outdoor air; due to the large presence of VOC toxins in household products such as: Drinking Water, Carpet, Paints, Deodorants, Cleaning Fluids, Cosmetics, and Air Fresheners. Metals like Arsenic, Mercury, Lead, Aluminum and Cadmium, which are prevalent in many areas of our environment, can accumulate in soft tissues of the body. These heavy metals are found in our Drinking Water, Fish, Vaccines, Pesticides, Antiperspirant, Building Materials and Dental Fillings. Add electromagnetic pollution, irradiation, ultra pasteurization, fluorescent lights and toxic additives like MSG and Aspartame to the equation, and we arrive at the explanation for rising rates of acute and degenerative disease.
A Solution: Household cleaners and products: Begin replacing toxic household cleaners in your home; there are safe, effective and natural alternatives that cost the same and can be found at most major retailers or by searching online. Use natural brands of toiletries, including shampoo, toothpaste, antiperspirants and cosmetics.
Cigarette smoke - first and second hand: If you smoke, odds are you’re aware of the health risks. If you’re not willing to do what it takes to quit, at least reduce the exposure of second hand smoke to other people by not smoking indoors.
Pesticides: Avoid using them in your home and garden. It’s likely that you’ve consumed enough pesticide this week through your food, that you’d be able to keep the bugs away with your saliva alone. Again, many natural alternatives can be found at major retailers or online.
Conclusion: Due to the exposure of numerous chemicals from multiple sources, doctors are often unable to diagnose or properly diagnose the symptoms related to ingesting and breathing in these toxins. There’s not much we can do to avoid all of the chemicals that we’re exposed to everyday, besides move to Fiji and live in an underground bunker. However, there are measures we can take to reduce some of our exposure. Supplementing your diet with a highly soluble Vitamin C will do wonders for your immune system. If we can begin taking initiative into our own health and begin to apply the tips shared today, we’ll be on our way to a healthier life.

Currently there are 80,000 synthetic chemicals registered with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and les than 20% have been tested for toxicity.  Because of the lack of toxicological testing, our children and our children children’s are experimental subjects.  Although the EPA has not tested all products for toxicity, many household cleaning products are listed on their website as “hazardous household waste”.

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p> </o:p>

Children are highly vulnerable to chemical toxins.  Their ability to metabolize, detoxify and excrete harmful chemicals differs from that of adults.  In addition, children have a faster metabolism which speeds up the absorption of contaminants and toxins.

<o:p> </o:p>

Additionally, children are always placing items in the mouth.  Scientists at <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:place w:st="on"><st1TonguelaceName w:st="on">Rutgers</st1TonguelaceName> <st1TonguelaceType w:st="on">University</st1TonguelaceType></st1:place> discovered that pesticides that are sprayed in the home evaporate and re-condense onto the floors, carpets, and toys.  Researchers concluded that these contaminated toys and areas are likely to give young children a much higher dose of poison than adults would get in the same environment.

<o:p> </o:p>

The National Academy of Science has recommended that infants and children be considered more vulnerable to chemicals, such as those found in household products, than adults in the absence of evidence to the contrary.

<o:p> </o:p>

Common household cleaners and appliances give off fumes which can increase the risk of developing asthma in children.  During the last 30 years, asthma has become the most chronic childhood disease today.  In a study conducted by THORAX in 2004, it concluded that common household cleaners give of fumes which can increase the risk of developing asthma in children.

<o:p> </o:p>

A study was also conducted to investigate the association between the use of chemical based products in the prenatal period and patterns of wheeze in early childhood.  These findings suggest a direct correlation between the frequent use of chemical based products by pregnant women and the wheezing in young children.

<o:p> </o:p>

Many household cleaning products and air fresheners produce unhealthy fumes. Again, the frequent use of air fresheners and cleaners produce high levels of volatile organic compounds and harmful ultra fine dust in the air.

<o:p> </o:p>

Several all-purpose cleansers contain neurotoxins and nasal irritants that can be absorbed through the skin or inhaled.  Exposure to these toxic chemicals while pregnant can disrupt the development or even cause death of the fetus.  In addition, maternal exposure to these toxins can include birth defects, low birth weight, and/or behavioral deficits that may become apparent as the child ages.

<o:p> </o:p>For your health, healths of your family, and the health of our environment, please use caution when using common household cleaners.  Additionally, dispose of empty containers as indicated on the label.  Better yet, think green and buy non-toxic, and biodegradable when purchasing household cleaners.
