Fwd: [healthytomorrow] National Expert to Speak About Preventable Poisons

[Guest guest]

All, I just wonder if they would bring up as a Preventable

Poison=Mold/Mycotoxins that these children can also be living with, or going to

school with. Although it states Pollution in People, and link between toxic

chemicals and chronic illnesses, and disabilities. I just don't know why they

would not include the indoor toxins these kids are exposed to, just like we are.

Wouldn't it be in the best interest, especially their focus being children. I

thought I would post this, if there is anyone in the group that may be close to

the area that could attend. I think I will send these contacts an email, once

again. They should look at the entire picture, not just chemicals. Darlene
