CARCINOGEN

Any substance that has the potential to cause cancer in living tissues. Carcinogen exposure can occur from the inhalation, ingestion, or absorption of many different types of substances.

REPRODUCTIVE HARM

Interferes with the reproductive organs and alters sexual behavior, decreases fertility, menstrual changes, offsets puberty, increases risk of miscarriages, premature births and increases risk of reproductive cancers.

NEUROTOXICITY

Exposure to neurotoxins that alters the normal activity of the nervous system causing damage to the brain and may disrupt and kill nerves.

ENVIRONMENTAL HARM

Potential contamination of water and soil together with other micro pollutants that contribute ecosystem damage.

ORGAN TOXICITY/IRRITATION

Occurs in major organs fed by the circulatory system (heart, kidneys, brain, eyes) which can sustain damage due to uncontrolled hypertension, hypotension, or hypovolemia.

DNA/CELL DAMAGE

Alteration in the chemical structure of our DNA. May be naturally repaired but will not result to 100% efficiency. Un-repaired DNA may damage and accumulate in non-replicating cells such as in the brain and muscles.

ALLERGEN

Causes hypersensitivity of the immune system.

ENDOCRINE DISRUPTION

Chemicals that may interfere with the body's endocrine system and produce adverse developmental, reproductive, neurological, and immune effects.
