I can't answer you from a place of knowledge my love... But I can say it makes sense to me when we are bombarding our homes, bodies and environments with known toxins it has to have an affect.

My body didn't show any toxic level but we know that autoimmune disorders (of which perhaps SIDS is one - who knows???) are triggered by environmental toxins (amongst other triggers)...
One of my Drs couldn't "prove" this was my case - however, he personally had seen enough to believe it a strong possibility...

The issue I have with people throwing around large volumes of text books and saying "unless it's here it's not true"... We can miss the intracacies and colloquial tales of reality!

For an example I do know a lot about... NK cells... We all have them otherwise we'd need to live in a bubble. But, when we have too many it appears they will amongst other things kill our babies in utero... (actually the cells don't kill the baby my body does because of the high number of killer cells)..

It is seen as "an old theory", "not proven", "just a lucky guess"... However, personally I have a baby playing on the floor that I believe I would not have had had I not researched until I had blisters on my fingers and my credit card was at the limit due to buying medical literature....

This Dr is seen as a crackpot by some - and a God by others... I believe he is right one day there will be a name & proof. Now there isn't so we look to people to share their ideas and feelings, experiences and opinions. Some will be learned scholars - others will be Mamas who don't know a synapse from an atom - but they learn hard and fast because they are passionate about their kids, or their passed over babies, or their own health...

I believe it is sheer arrogance to believe that only those that are scholars can know... We all know if we watch, listen and really "feel" into something.

Yes, I love science & yes, I have degrees & yes I am reasonably intelligent - but I cannot "prove" all I believe I know... But I won't shut up because someone with a PHD thinks I am uneducated!!!
And I didn't... And I have my baby when it was deemed I would never again have a live child...

Suse: I cannot produce for you on screen any references at this present time. I am happy to try & scan what I have so you can look at it. (I don't have a scanner but I can see what I can do)... However, I have read enough, learned enough and really believe that the chemicals I listed are dangerous and should not be used in our homes & especially around our children...
