What’s worse, flame retardant chemicals are harm than good. Triclosan is found in over 80 percent of linked to real and measurable health impacts, including Americans’ bodies and exposure has been linked to allergies, lower IQs and decreased attention spans for children exposed impaired reproduction, hormone disruption, and weakened in the womb, male infertility, male birth defects, and early muscles.

A recent study in animals linked flame admitted that triclosan is no more effective at preventing retardants to autism and obesity. illness than regular soap. Widespread use—in everything Americans carry much higher levels of flame retardants from cutting boards, yoga mats, bedding, soaps and gels— in their bodies than anyone else in the world, due in large could also be promoting drug-resistant bacteria.

The recommendations in this guideline are not mandatory and the guideline does not override the responsibility of healthcare professionals to make decisions appropriate to the circumstances of the individual patient, in consultation with the patient and/or their carer or guardian. Local commissioners and/or providers have a responsibility to enable the guideline to be applied when individual health professionals and their patients or service users wish to use it. They should do so in the context of local and national priorities for funding and developing services, and in light of their duties to have due regard to the need to eliminate unlawful discrimination, to advance equality of opportunity and to reduce health inequalities. Nothing in this guideline should be interpreted in a way that would be inconsistent with compliance with those duties. NICE guidelines cover health and care in England.

  • Triclocarban [CASRN 101-20-2] (3,4,4'-Trichlorocarbanilide)
    Triclocarban [CASRN 101-20-2] (3,4,4'-Trichlorocarbanilide) Potential Designated Chemical May 24, 2010 Meeting of Scientific Guidance Panel (SGP) Biomonitoring California1 Exposure or potential exposure to the public or specific subgroups: Triclocarban (TCC), or 3,4,4'-trichlorocarbanilide, is an antibacterial agent used in bar and liquid soaps and body washes. According to industry estimates, TCC may be added to bar and liquid soaps at levels ranging between 0.5 to 5% and to body washes at levels of 0.1 to 0.5% (TCC Consortium, 2002). Actual concentrations in bar soaps were expected to be limited to 1.5% (TCC Consortium, 2002). A study conducted in 1999- 2000 found triclocarban in 84% of deodorant bar soaps sold in the United States (Perencevich et al., 2001). In 2002, the annual U.S. production/import volume of TCC was reported as 1-10 million pounds (U.S. EPA, 2002). U.S. EPA (2009) reported a production/import volume of less than 500,000 pounds in 2005, although this information was not found on the most recent Toxic Substances Control Act Inventory Update (U.S. EPA, 2006). Recent studies report detection of TCC in surface waters and in sewage sludge (Heidler and Halden, 2009; Heidler et al., 2006; Halden and Paull, 2005; McClellan and Halden, 2010). One study assessing removal of organohalogens in 25 wastewater treatment facilities across 18 U.S. states (including California) found TCC in 100% of influent water, with a median concentration of 4.2 ± 0.8 ppb (range,1.3-20.5 ppb). TCC was also found in 100% of effluent water, with a median concentration of 0.23 ppb (range: 0.011-1.78 ppb) (Heidler and Halden, 2009).

Dann, 2011 ABSTRACT The ubiquitous presence of anthropogenic chemicals and their transformation products in surface water represents a toxicological concern from both an ecological standpoint and a human perspective as many of these chemicals are capable of altering hormonal function. Endocrine disrupting compounds can be traced back to numerous sources and may fall under the class of pesticide, industrial chemical, pharmaceutical, personal care product, and/or heavy metals. The adrenal gland is the most common target for endocrine disruptors, although in comparison to the sex steroids, this system has received much less attention in published research. Corticosteroids play a pivotal role in many physiological processes, including immunity, cognitive function, growth, metabolism, reproduction, mineral balance, and blood pressure.
