Many everyday household items we buy contain ingredients that can cause allergic reaction, breathing difficulty and dizziness. They might also increase the risks of cancer, birth defects, and other problems. According to David Steinman and Samuel Epstein, M.D, here is the list of common household products that contain known irritants, carcinogens and/or neurotoxins.
Carcinogens are chemicals that cause cancer. Neurotoxins are chemicals that adversely affect the nervous system, reducing emotional well being, mental alertness, coordination and other functions associated with intelligence.
