Back in 1976, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) began a program of collecting and analyzing human fat tissue samples - looking for toxic compounds. They searched for and studied 54 different environmental toxins. What they found was alarming. 100% of the people they studied had toxic chemicals stored in their bodies and at least 76% of all people had more than 20 different chemicals stored.
U.S. EPA Analysis of Toxins in Human Fat Tissue Samples :
Toxin Chemicals -- Possible Common Source -- % people containing this toxin in their fat tissue
Styrene -- styrene based cups -- 100%
1,4-Dichlorobenzene -- house deodorizers, mothballs -- 100%
Xylene -- gasoline, paints, lacquers -- 100%
Ethylphenol OCDD -- drinking water, herbicides, wood treatments, auto exhausts, incinerators -- 100%
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 HpCDD -- wood treatments, auto exhaust, herbicides, incinerators -- 89%
HxCDD -- gasoline -- 96%
Benzene -- drinking water -- 96%
Chlorobenzene -- gasoline, produce -- 96%
Ethylbenzene p, pl-DDE 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 HpCDF -- wood treatments, auto exhaust, herbicides -- 93%
Think about it! Every single person had some toxins in their bodies - undeniable proof that body pollution is a very real concept and a threat to your health.
