                            * change the genetic make-up of unborn baby boys
                            * deplete the sperm motility in men
                            * even actually alter our hormones
 
(proven in a study of teen girls)                                    * and worst case, causes cancer It's very scary, not just for us but even more so for the children who absorb things faster into their skin.  Ever wonder why there are so many children now with ADHD, ADD, Asthma, Allergies, and more?  Could it be related?  Do you want to take that chance?
