Happened upon a CNN debate just now. Unsure about how it started (was it related to Mexico Gulf oil or the Russian fires?)

80,000 chemicals identified in modern daily life, but only ~200 tested. Honorable mention to the US FDA, followed by more stringent guidelines in Europe.

Chemicals in umbilical cords, plastics, red flags, etc. News tells us certain cancers and diseases are rising, childhood leukemias. But is that because our world is more dangerous, or our diagnostics are better?

So far all I can glean is that lipsticks, nail polish, hair dye, deodorants and plastic food containers are all lumped in with second hand smoke, lawn fertilizers, and ocean oil dispersants.

And either fear of our food, air, water, soil....or trust that some agency is ahead of the game.

Has Eat your fruits and vegetables, drink plenty of water, avoid sunburn, brush your teeth and get plenty of exercise and sleep......grown exponentially into fear your produce, water, sunscreen and toothpaste? And check your mattress and sheets for chemicals that may KILL YOU?
