There are many types of air contaminants in our secret spaces that are much more mysterious than one might suspect, that can directly effect our quality of life. Everyone should do an indoor air quality analysis. The first psychological problem that exists is the perception of contents and what is really dangerous, as compared to what is actually being touted as dangerous for other reasons. Of the danger list, we begin with our society's over emphasize on smoking which is more about control than about smoking. N0 evidence exists that proves conclusively second-hand smoke is 100% factually and statistically measured as the exact cause of damage, only suggestive information is presented with no real scientific backing. Smoking habitually is obviously somewhat harmful to the user, as any habitual habit often leads to. Outdoor air has not been a major problem for human health unless you live in a [closed in society] with others and the overlaying conglomerated system. If you happen to live near the industry, know that many humans have died from living too close to the industrious system. As I write this article, there is a town only 10 miles away that is fighting this very system where industrious business owners are being sued for allegedly abusing their waste privileges and harming the health of neighboring citizens. Outdoor air is subject to great forces beyond our control, and our affecting it through emissions, will affect us more than it affects earth in any time scale we could comprehend. This is a part of our unbalance in thinking. We assume that the planet will allow us to invade every inch of it with our concrete and wooden castles before a higher order steps in who never heard of rapture. If the earth is doomed for destruction around the corner, the higher force is more likely concerned with extermination and recycling our life force because the experiment turned bad. Indoor air has a much higher potential for harm based on content associated with dangerous chemicals in by-products from manufactured building spaces that break down unseen to the eyes and float around the living space. There is also the storage of cleaners containing deadly ingredients while living in the same space, and assuming the containers are keeping the dangers inside when they can be traced to every inch of your living space, like the sheets you sleep on, or the draperies and cloth fabrics you come in contact with. This exposure combined with the cleaning products and the washing products builds your risk to air contaminants that are mostly untested for long-term exposure. The chemicals adhere to the fabrics that are cleaned and especially if submerged, as in a washing machine. Most laundry cleaners contain chemicals that break down the fabric from the friction and loosening of the particles into your environment. The most affected by this would be the closest contact, which is the skin. The lungs are next. So in our perception of air, we forget our skin also breathes but in a different way from our lungs. This can be proven by painting your body with paint and the body goes into a flight or flight mode with bizarre blood pressure fluxuations, where the body feels sick. What is absorbed by the skin is not the same as the lungs. So in getting back to the danger list, we see second-hand smoke and wonder how dangerous it really is. Well, think with reason, if someone can smoke for 30 years and not die, how dangerous can the left-over [burned up tobacco] be, as versus let's say, the smoke from a burned up piece of coal? If the person who just smoked the cigarette is not lying dead in the floor, there is a good chance the smoke is not going to kill you in most cases. The burning of plant products would not be considered at the top of the list of dangerous chemical hazards in our society. The burning of vinyl siding would! People have also become chemically sensitive to these environmental changes unseen to their eyes. They assume that the burning of a cigarette is more dangerous than the burning of their furnace or the burning of their food, only because a system is in place to use that information against you. The danger list is hidden in your habits and includes every man-made product you bring into your space or where you spend most of your time. If you live right next to an industrial plant, seriously, did you think living there is the best idea for children? What are you thinking? Many are stuck into these situations and it is hard to change or get away from the system and its affects on us. Since 1950, at least 70,000 new chemical compounds have been invented and dispersed into our environment. Only a fraction of these have been tested for human toxicity. We are, by default, conducting a massive clinical toxicology trial, and our children and their children are the experimental animals. [1] These industrious chemical companies have families who need inheritances and exemplified self service of their harems. The products themselves would not work unless the deadly chemicals were added. This simply means one thing. The companies are not willing to do the proper research based on health, health is not important to them. only money. So in order to enhance their reign of money power over innocent humans, they lobby Congress and the power mongers to keep their money flows alive. The United States of America Federal Code of Regulations exempts manufacturers from proper and respectful full labeling of products if the products used are for personal, family or household care. [2] That's right, they do not have to tell you what is in the product anymore because they paid for that right by lining the pockets of people in power over your life and well-being. But not 100%, for if you know the truth, you can quit supporting manufacturers whose only purpose in life is to make money from you and keep themselves in the green. There is no other reason. Presently, there are over 20,000 chemicals in our homes, whose combined accumulation has intensified the problems! The EPA's 15-year research on cancer clearly states the major cause of a broad range of cancers is now the chemicals from store products which are carried into our home! [3] This research is now several years old and burning tobacco leaves was not even a factor of concern. Although one might note that burning a wood fireplace may be as dangerous to your health than, let's say, several hundred plant leaves burned in your presence. In that respect, when families burn their yard leaves and breath in the fumes, it would be similar to thousands of cigarettes all burning at the same time. The reality of hazards in the home really are deceiving. While the public is busy worry about burnt leaves, children are playing with chemicals every day. Liquid dish soap is the leading cause of poisonings in the home for children under the age of six [over 4 million accidental poisonings per year]. Most brands of liquid dish soap contain formaldehyde and ammonia. Of the chemicals found in personal care products back in 1989:
A California study stated back before the turn of the millennium that out of 2,435 pesticide poisonings in a one-year period, over 40% were due to exposure to disinfectants and similar cleaning products in the home.
As more toxic chemicals have been introduced to our everyday environment
in greater amounts over the last 20 to 30 years, the level of toxins
stored in adipose tissues (fat cells) of our bodies has risen
dramatically. Bioaccumulation studies have shown that some toxins
store in our bodies for life. Greater and greater amounts are being
stored at younger ages. One study showed that in the fat of 100% of the
people tested was 1,4-Dichlorobenzene, a chemical found in most
household deodorizers and room fresheners. We as a world are very
creative. Over 20,000 new chemicals are being added each year to the mix
which is now well over the 100,000 mark. So many of these newer
chemicals are estrogen-mimicking, thereby more prone to cause cancer! Some products release contaminants into the air right away, others do so gradually over a period of time. Some stay in the air up to a year. But with the breaking down of all the massive matter around us, these particles are much worse than imagined. The CDC reported that in only one decade, there was a 42% increase in asthma [29% for men, 82% for women]. The higher rate for women is believed to be due to women's longer exposure times to household chemicals. Ten years ago, the average child visited the doctor 23 times in the first 4 years of life, with the most common complaint being respiratory ailment. [6] Today, it is much harder to disseminate this kind of information as the Internet and media are both involved heavily in trying to keep the lid on the truth. Parents are brainwashed into believing they must take their kids to the doctor often in preparation for further indoctrination into the system. Respiratory problems are now the number one reason for admissions to hospitals over all other ailments in the U.S. Attention Deficit Disorder [ADD] in adults and children is also rising - in 1993, 4.5 million children took the drug Ritalin so they could sit still long enough to learn. By 1998, 11.4 million children were being drugged with this powerful Class-2 narcotic. [7] The statistics available today are completely jaded. Between 1990 and 2000 there were 186 deaths from methylphenidate reported to the FDA MedWatch program, a voluntary reporting scheme, the numbers of which represent no more than 10 to 20% of the actual incidence. [8] Even small doses of neurotoxins, which would be harmless to an adult, can alter a child's nervous system development. [9] Today, children have chemical exposures from birth that their parents didn't have until they were adults. Because children are exposed to toxins at an earlier age than adults, they have more time to develop environmentally triggered diseases, with long latency periods, such as cancer. [10]
Of the hundreds of new exotic chemicals your children can breath in, one
of the worst is Formaldehyde which is in hundreds of products used in
the home. Formaldehyde is a highly toxic substance. It is a known
cancer-causing agent. It damages the neurological connectors in the
body. It is an irritant to the eyes, nose, throat and lungs. We often
wonder why we feel the way we do. Here are the symptoms associated with
formaldehyde.
Chemical sensitivity is also changing as more and more people become affected. Only 1 part in 1 million will affect you. What has our industrious mongers done with this wonderful chemical humans are embalmed in? Let's take a look at what keeps the American dead body fresh for up to week after death when in the old days you're sacred trip back to dust was almost immediate.
That about a million products, and guess what? You will never know which ones have it or which ones don't. Why? As stated before, they don't have to tell you anything, and the containers usually have disclaimers on them in small print that state once you use a product, the manufacturer is no longer responsible for any effects you receive from using it. This has been changed over the years to increase the capability of the manufacturers to sustain attacks from angry customers whose family members have died. It's usually harder to build a case with the disclaimers, and the victims usually must go up against an attorney team, the size of a football team. See if you recognize some of the fine chemical names on this list that work wonders for our deception.
I'm sure you know what products these fancy chemicals are in right? Well, guess again, they are all FORMALDEHYDE. It's one of the favorite killer chemicals. You probably wonder why manufacturers would do this to decent people. Again, when you don't have to see the pain, its not as bad when the big fat check comes in.
The floor cleaners, furniture and window cleaner, nail polish remover,
and bug sprays are so bad, they cannot be disposed of. That means once
you buy them, you have to use it, or you could be fined for disposing of
these items. Most cities in the U.S. do not separate out these toxins
from the trash, so what is really happening? We are spreading these
particles all over the planet in large areas where people live and dump
their trash, and IT IS seeping into ALL the water supplies as particles
that do not break down, but continue to contaminant HUMANS for hundreds
of years. The earth doesn't seem to mind other than it is heating up,
and making its final decision about our fate.
