A study recently published in the magazine “Environmental Health” found a greater incidence of breast cancer among women who frequently used household cleaners. Julia Brody, PhD, executive director of the Silent Spring Institute in Newton, Mass., who led the study, and her fellow researchers conducted telephone interviews with 787 women who had been diagnosed with breast cancer and 721 women who did not have breast cancer. The women were asked about the frequency of their use of household cleaners.
The links between breast cancer and household cleaners was found to be the greatest among women who used combined cleaning products (many different products used together). The risk of breast cancer was about twice as high for the women who used many different products compared to women who said they used the least.
“The use of air fresheners and products for mold and mildew control were associated with increased risk” according to Dr. Brody.

In a report from the mainstream of scientific and medical thinking, the President’s Cancer Panel released a report in May, 2010 declaring that chemicals threaten our health. This validates the concerns that many people have had about the effects of toxins on our health.
The panel is not some environmental fringe group with an agenda. Established in 1971, the panel reports directly to the president and is comprised of 3 distinguished experts who review America’s cancer program.
In their 200 page report, the Cancer Panel recommends a much more vigorous regulation of chemicals, concluding that chemicals can have a far-reaching impact on our health.
We are exposed to toxic chemicals in the air we breathe, in the water we drink, and in the food we eat. The proliferation of chemicals in water, air, foods, and household products is suspected as a factor in the increase in some cancers, particularly in children.
