Americans are exposed to dangerous toxins every day in their homes, workplaces, schools, grocery stores, and even outdoors. These toxins, which can come in the form of solvents, carbon monoxide, mercury, and pesticides, may cause devastating effects to children, adults, and unborn children. When certain toxic chemicals are inhaled they may cause a variety of illnesses, problems with the nervous system, and in serious cases they may cause severe brain injury or death.
Some dangerous toxins that people may come into contact with include:
Solvents are chemicals that can be found in numerous products, such as paint and glue. When inhaled, these dangerous chemicals may cause dizziness, drowsiness, headaches, low sperm count, problems with eyesight, brain damage, poor coordination, poor memory, and liver damage.
Carbon Monoxide is an odorless and colorless chemical that cannot be detected by humans; so many people are unknowingly at risk for Carbon Monoxide poisoning. When a person has Carbon Monoxide poisoning they may suffer from brain damage due to the brain's lack of oxygen and in severe cases may die.
Mercury exposure can cause serious health problems, including brain damage, respiratory problems, shaking, and memory loss. The colorless and odorless chemical is commonly found in household thermometers and fish.
Pesticides are chemicals that are used to kill vermin, weeds, and insects and can be found indoors and outdoors. When a person is exposed to pesticides they may experience difficulty with speech and eyesight, headaches, and poor organ function.
