Avoid these 17 dangerous and carcinogenic chemicals
These materials include gasoline, diesel, car exhaust fumes, anti-flammable chemicals, stain-resistant fabrics, paint cleaners and disinfection by-products in drinking water, etc. Toxic chemicals are directly linked to breast cancer
This article, published in the journal Environmental Health, lists 17 types of chemicals that women should minimize their exposure to and receive guidance on how to use.
Researchers in the United States have shown that certain chemicals, especially those used in everyday life, can lead to breast cancer. They suggested that the results of this study could be generalized to women as well.
This article, published in the journal Environmental Health, lists 17 types of chemicals that women should minimize their exposure to and receive guidance on how to use.
“This study identifies high-risk chemicals that women are most likely to be exposed to and provides an effective way to prevent breast cancer,” said Rotan Radel, director of research at the Silent Spring Institute. The results of these scientific findings encourage women to be less exposed to chemicals associated with breast cancer. Some of the largest sources of carcinogens in the environment are benzene and butadiene from car exhaust and lawn mowers, tobacco smoke and burnt food. .
Other concerns include some cleaning solvents such as methyl chloride, pharmaceuticals, hormone substitutes, anti-inflammatory clothing, stain-resistant chemicals, and refractory and styrene coatings used to make foam. Some carcinogens are also found in drinking water, which is used for disinfection. According to the author of this study, women who are exposed to these chemicals in the United States should be aware of their effects on breast cancer. Unfortunately, the link between toxic chemicals and breast cancer has been largely ignored, while less exposure to chemicals saves the lives of many women. Researchers say women can measure the amount of potential carcinogens by measuring them in their blood and urine.
This study also presents 7 ways to prevent direct contact with hazardous chemicals for women.
– Limited exposure to vehicle exhaust or generators such as car exhaust and electric lawn mowers
– Limited use of ventilation fan when cooking and avoiding burnt food
– Limited use of furniture with “polyurethane” foam or anti-combustion
Avoid buying carpets, furniture and stain-resistant fabrics
– Limited use of laundries due to the use of chemical solvents such as (perchlorethylene)
– Use of filtered drinking water from carbonate contents
– Storage of chemicals outside the interior of the house
Epidemiologist Dale Sanderler described the study as “one of the best results in reducing the incidence of breast cancer” and said that chemicals are a biomarker associated with breast cancer in women.
