Choices typically revolve around the pros and cons.Written by Bruce Bowery
Continued from page 1
The pros and cons issue is really quite simple. We typically like products that we use on a daily basis because we are familiar with these brands and we like how products perform. However, we really do not know what health risks are associated with using these types of products. The sad truth is that we will probably never know what dangers or harms are associated with their ingredients or with what can happen to us physically over any length of time that we use or come in contact with these products and their ingredients. On one hand we like products, and on other hand we seem to be playing a potentially harmful game of chance. Do you listen to what many other sites and people say regarding “household toxin issue,” or do you put your trust in manufacturing companies and name brands? I cannot force you to make a change, but that has not been my intent. My satisfaction comes in knowing that I have done what I can to help raise awareness on this issue, and that I can possibly help people make better educated and informed decisions when it comes to purchasing consumable products. I will now close with saying thank you for reading this article and take care.
I am a loving husband and father, who has dome some research regarding the household toxin issue. I am no expert, but this is my way to help raise the awareness on this very serious topic.

We need to take a long serious look at information that is provided, to warn us of all possible risks to ourselves and our families for their long term health and vitality and quality of life – free from respiratory conditions and possible fatal disease – that could be avoided. The International Agency for Research on Cancer has evaluated cancer risks from workplace exposures within an number of wood industries. The IARC has classified wood dust as a Group 1 carcinogen (likely to cause cancer) to humans. This classification is result of a distinct increase in occurrence of cancer of nasal cavities and Para nasal sinuses among workers exposed to hardwood dust. It is responsibility of workplace employers to provide adequate safety and respiratory equipment for protection of employees long term health. Both employers and employees need to be educated of importance of protecting themselves and their families more by wearing protective clothing and equipment.
Interests include health, workplace safety and home/family life.
