Everyone should read this book, to see how dangerous chemicals (in food, water, plastics, and many other things that we are exposed to all the time) are in our bodies and our children's bodies. We need action on both the government level and at the buyer's level (since if we don't buy things that are unhealthy for us, they will stop being made even if the government allows it). I highly recommend this book!

This is a well-written and researched and important book about the toxins in our environment. From plastics, medications, pesticides and herbicides to toothpaste and shampoo, we are stewing in a chemical soup. The author not only tells us about the various chemicals found in our homes, drinking water, lawns, the products we buy and how they wind up in our bodies. The book has a helpful appendix with resources to help find better products to use and groups to contact. Most importantly, we need to demand legislation that will protect our environments and ourselves. I highly recommend this book.
