"The chemicals found in common household products like furniture and drapes could be reducing a woman’s fertility.
Women who have high levels of the flame-retardant chemicals in their blood had a harder time getting pregnant than women with low levels of the chemicals, according to a study by UC Berkeley researchers.
.
The researchers found that women with high levels of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) were between 30% and 50% less likely to conceive every month than women with low levels."

The number of chemicals used in US is approximately 80,000, only five of them are banned and only a few have ever been tested.
This study like many others only keeps proving how dangerous our world is, how scary and powerful these giant corporations are, managing to control our politic and economy, from the food we eat, the water we drink and everything that surrounds us.
Spread the word, and let's put a stop to this greed that only kills.
