The brain is not the only organ of the body
affected by various exogenous toxins in our environment.
"Encephalopathy is a term for any diffuse disease of the brain that
alters brain function or structure. Encephalopathy may be
caused by infectious agent (bacteria, virus, or prion), metabolic or
mitochondrial dysfunction, brain tumor or increased pressure in the
skull, prolonged exposure to toxic elements (including solvents,
drugs, radiation, paints, industrial chemicals, and certain metals),
chronic progressive trauma, poor nutrition, or lack of
oxygen or blood flow to the brain.
Chemical Injury, ADD/ADHD, Lyme, Parkinson's,
Alzheimer's, Gulf War Syndrome, Fibroymalgia, Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome all have some degree of interaction upon
the brain.
Chemicals are pervasive in our
environment. Whether we ingest, inhale or apply them,
chemicals affect both humans and the environment. Only
through knowledge we will be able to make more informed
decisions regarding our health and the health of others.
The vast array of chemicals, colognes, perfumes, air
fresheners, scented candles, potpourri, pesticides, cleaning
and laundry products negatively affects an increasing
segment of the population on a daily basis.
Access to schools, medical facilities, lodging,
recreation venues, special events, social functions, and
government meetings is severely limited or non-existent for
people who are adversely affected by chemicals.
Therefore, the NTEF has elected to provide coverage of a
wide variety of information on environmental issues, not
just the more obvious ones that have a major impact upon the brain."

Petition To The FDA To Have It Declared A Drug
