Healthy Living in a Contaminated World: How to Prevent Toxic Chemicals from Undermining Your Health Dr. Donald L Hoernschemeyer 2. izdevums

What causes cancer, type-2 diabetes and other debilitating conditions? Often it's the toxic chemicals that surround us and infiltrate our bodies. Healthy Living in a Contaminated World shines a light on these toxic chemicals and leads the reader toward a healthier life. It describes the health damages caused by specific chemicals, and recommends actions that people can take to avoid exposure to them. The second edition contains new information on three key topics: children?s health, hormone disrupting chemicals, and breast cancer. These major heath topics are illuminated by the EPA?s report on the effects of environmental chemicals on children; the World Health Organization?s report on the effects of hormone disrupting chemicals on reproduction, neurological development, and metabolic and immune disorders; and insights into breast cancer by the Silent Spring Institute, the Breast Cancer Fund, and the book, ?The Ecology of Breast Cancer.?
