    FDA Over the Moral Wall

    Thursday, December 18th, 2008

    In a stunning indictment, the Environmental Working Group, a Washington D.C. pro-environment lobby group, lambasted the FDA (Federal Drug Administration) for a recent uncovered secret document that stretches the imagination. The email that EWG sent out yesterday stunned even a jaded person like me. It read: “On Friday, December 12, the Environmental Working Group made […]

    More Bad News About Bisphenol A

    Monday, December 8th, 2008

    I know, I’m piling on BPA, but darn it, bisphenol A deserves a beat down. Every month I find yet another article in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives that shows how it affects human health but this article about BPA and chemotherapy deserves a recognition.  Seems that BPA can interfere with the effect of chemo […]

    Reducing Inflammation – Part I

    Thursday, November 13th, 2008

    Since this blog site is entitled, Toxic World Blog, you might imagine that I would discuss the issue of environmental toxicity and inflammation first and you would be right. It’s the obvious first choice and one that needs to be addressed in both a global as well as personal way. Not only do we have […]

    Crestor Jupiter Study – Problems, Issues and Solutions

    Tuesday, November 11th, 2008

    The recently reported study JUPITER, which shows that the drug Crestor, aka rosuvastatin, would help reduce inflammation in the arteries which would help reduce the number of heart attacks has got me puzzled. What struck me was the amazed reactions by physicians who were shocked, shocked that C-Reactive Protein, a marker for inflammation, was a […]

    Plastic versus Paper – A Change in My Opinion

    Thursday, October 2nd, 2008

    In my book, Acheiving Victory Over a Toxic World, I wrote about the difference in the resources used by a plastic and a paper grocery bag was minimal. Plastic may actually use a wee bit less than paper in terms of energy and other limited resources. Since then one thing keeps coming to my attention […]

    BPA is Safe! Just Believe the FDA and You’ll be OK. Yeah, Right.

    Thursday, August 21st, 2008

    If you believe the FDA, you can continue to use bisphenol A laden products without any concerns. If you are a rational individual who realizes that the ones who decided the safety of this toxin is so beholden to the BPA industry that they couldn’t make an unbiased decision to save their lives. Sorry to […]

    A Must Have Book

    Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

    While at Boulderfest 2008 in July, I had the pleasure of meeting Debra Lynn Dadd, who was one of the speakers. We swapped signed copies of our latest books and I have to say, her’s was very impressive. Home Safe Home, is a must have book. At over 400 pages, it is full of useful information […]

    Phthalates in Your World

    Tuesday, May 27th, 2008

    One of my favorite organizations in the fight against our toxic world is the Environmental Working Group. They send out regular emails about issues relating to our environment and today’s was particularly interesting as it had a link to their Enviroblog talking about phathalates, that insidious plasticizer that is in all of our bodies. Here […]
