“H” means higher than the reference range, and “VH” means it’s a way-high number. My initial mercury levels were literally off the charts! Mercury is toxic at one part per billion, which is about the same concentration as one grain of salt in one swimming pool. [Read more…]

TOXIC CHILDREN’S TOYS

They’re oh so cute, but oh so toxic. 75% of children’s Disney, Spider-Man and Dora the Explorer back-to-school products had high levels of phthalates. Phthalates give plastics that “rubber ducky” feel.

Other children’s toys to avoid are:

Faux-leather goods (which contain lead)
Cheap jewelry (which can contain lead, arsenic and cadmium)
Some art supplies (which may contain carcinogens and volatile organic compounds)
