Photo courtesy of Don Shapiro, Healthy Housing Coalition. The primary goal of the Chemical Sensitivity Foundation is to raise public awareness about multiple chemical sensitivity. Our efforts in this area include the distribution of a six-page selected bibliography of studies and articles on chemical sensitivity published in peer-reviewed journals. The amount of solid research on this subject is expanding each year, and we believe it is important to alert physicians and researchers to scientific information on this condition that is as yet not always recognized or understood. One of our goals in distributing this list is to stimulate other scientists to consider launching research studies in this field.

When exposed to the chemicals, people with MCS react with symptoms such as nausea, headache, dizziness, fatigue, impaired memory, rash, and respiratory difficulty. A wide range of household and industrial chemicals, including cleaning products, tobacco smoke, perfumes, inks, and pesticides, have been implicated as triggers for MCS.

Mail to a Friend FEATURES No Safe Haven People With Multiple Chemical Sensitivity Are Becoming the New Homeless Though it's only recently begun to make headlines, multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) is not new: People have been reporting the symptoms of it on an increasing arc for the last 50 years, as our society has become more and more synthetic. Between 1940 and 1980, the production of synthetic organic chemicals increased from less than 10 billion pounds per year to more than 350 billion. In some ways, MCS is an allergy to modern lifea physical reaction to the common chemicals, ranging from detergents, pesticides, solvents and perfumes to foods and pharmaceuticals, that permeate our everyday existence. Less than one percent of the 1,000 new chemicals added each year have been tested for toxicity. No longer rare, MCS affects as much as 30 percent of Americans, with symptoms that range from the mild (headaches, fatigue) to the severe (chest pains, depression, shortness of breath). Despite its growing ubiquity, however, MCS is rarely taken seriously. As Rachel's Environment and Health Weekly explains it, "Because MCS does not fit any of the three currently-accepted mechanisms of diseaseinfectious, immune system, or cancertraditional medicine has not known how to explain MCS, and so has often labeled it 'psychogenic'originating in the patient's mind. This has left MCS sufferers in limbo. Told they are crazy, or imagining their disease, or making it up, they find themselves passed from physician to physician without any satisfactory answers and often without relief from their very real distress."

Multiple Chemical Sensitivity It is known that chemicals cause many human diseases. Some of the chemicals that have been documented to be dangerous to human exposure include: tobacco smoke – the major cause of lung cancer asbestos – causes mesothelioma, an unusual tumor of the linings of the chest and abdominal cavity, lung cancer, asbestosis, and an increased risk of gastrointestinal cancer kepone- causes sterility in men and neurological disorders dibromochloropropane – causes sterility in men Reactions to certain chemicals may cause reactions similar to those experienced with allergies. Chemicals that may cause sensitivity may include synthetic and natural substances found in: carpeting plastics perfumes plants paint cigarette smoke There are many other chemicals which are under investigation and the problem continues to grow because of the ever increasing production of organic chemicals.
