Pediatricians Want Government to Do More to Protect Kids From Toxic Chemicals

Pediatricians say the Toxic Substances Control Act is ineffective.

Toxic chemicals are, well, toxic. They hurt kids and, dang it, the government really ought to do something about it.

So says the American Academy of Pediatrics in a report released April 25 that is bound to get a round of applause from parents.

A lot of parents want to know just which chemicals to avoid. That's the problem, the Los Angeles Times reports. There are sooo many of them. And getting enough evidence to label them "toxic" is hard.

"Over the past several decades, tens of thousands of chemicals have entered commerce and the environment, often in extremely large quantities," the American Academy of Pediatrics report begins.

Pediatricians say the Toxic Substances Control Act is ineffective and stronger policies are needed.

Marc Weisskopf, an environmental epidemiologist at the Harvard School of Public Health, tells the Times that's a tall order.

"Frankly, there are thousands of chemicals in use, and our understanding on neurotoxicity is practically zero," he tells the newspaper.

Only a few chemicals have been studied very thoroughly, Weisskopf adds. This makes knowing which ones might be neurotoxic (disrupting brain activity) and which ones might disrupt hormonal systems tricky, he tells the Times.

The importance of evidence is exaggerated, according to the pediatricians' report.

"The regulation of chemicals must be based on evidence," they write. "However, decisions to limit or ban chemicals or classes of chemicals from commerce or to promote the substitution of demonstrably less hazardous chemicals should be based on reasonable levels of concern and not depend on demonstrated negative health effects after release."

Among the pediatricians' recommendations:

Any testing of chemicals should include the impact on women and children, including potential effects on reproduction and development.
Chemicals should meet safety standards similar to those met by pharmaceuticals or pesticide residues on food.
There should be post-marketing surveillance of chemicals, and the EPA must have the authority to remove a chemical if needed.
Federal funding should be provided for research to prevent, identify and evaluate the effects of chemicals on children's health.

Whole Foods Launches Rating System For Cleaning Products

Just in time for Earth Day, Whole Foods Market introduced its Eco-Scale rating system to help shoppers make smarter, greener choices for their homes and the planet.

Everyone wants their home to be clean and fresh. Unfortunately, most of the cleaners and air fresheners on the market today contain toxic ingredients that actually put your health in jeopardy.

According to the EPA, scientific evidence indicates that indoor air can be more seriously polluted than the outdoor air in even the largest and most industrialized cities. New carpets, electronics and plastics, glues, paint, pesticides, household cleaners, and air fresheners all contain carcinogens and/or endocrine disrupting compounds. Without proper ventilation, this equals a toxic cloud of pollution that’s trapped inside your home.

And if you think that watching the label will help you avoid these toxic chemicals, think again: a recent market research survey found that almost three out of four (73 percent) adults falsely believe that the government requires household cleaning products to provide a list of ingredients on the label.

The Eco-Scale system will attempt to clear up some of the confusion when it comes to household cleaning products. Under the new evaluation system, cleaning products sold at Whole Foods will color coded—red, orange, yellow or green—based on the specific set of environmental and sourcing standards each product meets.

All orange-rated products must be third-party verified to meet the following criteria:

No ingredients with significant environmental or safety concerns, such as phosphates**, chlorine***, or preservatives that have the potential to release formaldehyde.
No artificial colors
No animal testing

In addition to the criteria above, yellow-rated products must also meet the following requirements:

No ingredients with moderate environmental or safety concerns, such as DEA, TEA or MEA surfactants (surface acting agents that can act as foaming agents) that have the potential to contain nitrosamines and other impurities
No synthetic thickeners made from non-renewable petroleum-derived sources
100 percent natural fragrances

Green-rated products represent the highest level of Whole Foods Market’s new standards and meet all the requirements of the orange and yellow products, but also contain

only 100 percent natural ingredients and
contain no petroleum-derived ingredients at all.

All cleaning products will be required to meet the new baseline orange standard by Earth Day, 2012. Red-rated products will be reformulated or phased out of Whole Foods Market.

“Shoppers have a right to know what’s actually in the products they use to clean their homes,” said Jim Speirs, global vice president of procurement for Whole Foods Market. “We’ve always carefully monitored ingredients. Now, with Eco-Scale, we’re able to help shoppers buy eco-friendly products with confidence and provide safer alternatives for their households and for the planet as a whole.”

Unfortunately, Whole Foods has not seen fit to extend its philosophy of transparency to the edible products on its shelves. The company has failed to enact a labeling policy for food brands that contain genetically modified ingredients, and recently came under fire for endorsing the USDA’s “coexistence” option for GMO alfalfa.

50,000 Healthier Homes

For the Shaklee Family, every day

is Earth Day. But this is a great

time of year to tell our environ-

mental story, and to teach how

easy - and thrifty - it can be to

make a difference for yourself,

for your family, and for the planet.

One healthier home at a time.

Consider this: one family deciding to convert to our

non-toxic biodegradable household cleaners keeps

the equivalent of 5,000 bottles of conventional "ready-

to-use" glass cleaner out of landfills. What would it

mean if 50,000 families did the same? A great big

thanks from the planet, and from people all over the

world who share this wonderful home we call Earth.

In honor of Earth Day, over the next 7 weeks,

Shaklee will be offering everyone a world of

savings, some great ways to make an impact

for the planet, and a nice way to make a

healthy living too.

Join Free with $30 April 1 through May 20, 2011

Through May 20, 2011, when anyone new

purchases at least $30 in Shaklee, the $19.95^†
