easiest ways to avoid a headache is to avoid fragrant products — personal care and
cleaning? It seems they’ve yet to learn chemical sensitivity is not “allergy” and that

Head Lice
Beware of pesticides! Some contain malathion. Following are some suggestions via links for
dealing with head lice. Remember, they do not harm us or our pets . . . pesticides can harm us and

Hazard Evaluation System and Information Service (HESIS)

An Introduction to Chemical Hazards in the Workplace
” … What makes a chemical toxic?
“The toxicity of a substance is its ability to cause harmful effects. These
effects can strike a single cell, a group of cells, an organ system, or the
entire body. A toxic effect may be visible damage, or a decrease in
performance or function measureable only by a test. All chemicals
can cause harm. When only a very large amount of the chemical can
cause damage, the chemical is considered to be relatively non-toxic.
When a small amount can be harmful, the chemical …

Hate Crimes

Do the law enforcement officers, school administrators, workplace management teams, health care
administrators, et al., around this country understand the nature of the hate crimes perpetrated
against the already chemically injured? We are disabled by chemicals you may think of as
benign, but believe me, that simply means you have a lot to learn. At least word is now getting out
on the harmful effects of pesticides, but the ignorance that continues to be shown by the
powers that be amazes me.
I keep asking myself: If county health officials, members of the local …

Hair Care Suggestions and General Information

For the chemically injured . . . and those who wish to be safer
Also see EHN’s sections on Organics and Shampoos.
I use organic Jojoba Oil on my scalp, before shampooing, as well as on my skin, massaging
it in well. I often use baking soda as a shampoo. Otherwise, I find I can use a wide range of
Magick Botanicals products. And, I don’t use hair dye, feeling I’ve earned my gray.
You can find documents telling you hair dye is safe. But until we stop hearing about all of
the skyrocketing …
