Already known to be present in our everyday consumer objects (baby bottles, cans, drugs or cosmetics), it has been proved that our receipts and credit card are also impregnated. A disturbing revelation when we know that this toxic product (already classified as such in Canada and soon in the U.S.), produces tumors and breast cancers in women, the youth and fetal deterioration in breast tissue . Remember that each year nearly 1,000 synthetic chemicals are created when there are already 80,000! More than 500 of them are to cause cancer or disrupt hormones in our bodies, and are mostly related to our lifestyle in the West.
