It can range from the extremely obvious, such as a factory worker overcome by fumes from an industrial-strength chemical spill, to the virtually unnoticed constant exposure to the supposedly safe chemicals found in the products and places of our everyday lives. From both of these extremes, to every point in between, chemical injury can result in a debilitating condition of chronic chemical sensitivity or other chemical environmental illness.  What You’ll Learn Here This website is dedicated to providing both the public and the medical community with the latest research and information on chemical injury. You’ll find articles, lists, and links covering the prevention, evaluation, and treatment of chemical sensitivity and related conditions caused by the thousands of poorly tested or untested, hazardous chemicals you are exposed to every day. Each section features articles specifically written for the general public and articles specifically written for medical professionals. Topics range from the negative impacts on health due to pesticides to the treatable forms of chemical sensitivity to regular updates on harmful chemicals and medical products and their damaging effects, including chemical causes of memory loss and new evidence that Parkinson's disease is caused by chemical exposure.
