Chemo Drugs Are Dangerous to Families, Caregivers, and the Environment
Chemo drug dangers: it sounds counter-intuitive, but the very drugs that are used to CURE cancer can also CAUSE cancer, as well as miscarriages and birth defects.
Babies, children and pregnant women are especially vulnerable, due to the DNA-damaging effect of Cytotoxic Drugs on rapidly dividing cells.
Even low levels of exposure to cytotoxic drugs can cause cancer as well as miscarriages, and birth defects. In fact, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration warns:
How Is This Possible?
Just like vitamins and many other pharmaceuticals, Cytotoxic Chemo Drugs are excreted in active form, in various levels and lengths of time.
Shocking but true, a large majority of chemotherapy patients unwittingly excrete one of the world’s most dangerous chemicals through their urine, feces, and vomit.
Without proper safety equipment, family members, caregivers, and our environment can be exposed to active Cytotoxic Chemicals.
As unpleasant as those thoughts may be, the danger to anyone exposed to ANY LEVEL of these chemo drugs is extreme.
Cytotoxic Chemo Drug Dangers are well-documented and long-established facts.
Cytotoxic Drugs present serious health hazards and “have been known to cause cancer, reproductive and developmental problems, allergic reactions, and other adverse effects that can be irreversible even after low-level exposures.”
Cytotoxic chemo drugs are designed to cure cancer by damaging DNA and killing the cancer cells. One big problem is they also damage the DNA of healthy cells, producing common side effects such as hair loss. Read more…
Hospitals and Chemotherapy Treatment Centers go to great lengths to protect employees from the risk of accidental exposure to Cytotoxins.
In fact, extensive safety precautions are used by everyone involved with cytotoxins: from manufacturers and pharmacists to nurses and cleaning staff.
Yet still, the danger exists. Read more…
Protect Your Family and Caregivers.
It is surprisingly simple to protect loved ones, caregivers and our public water supply from Cytotoxic Chemo Drug Dangers.
Patients can avoid serious, irreversible consequences by modeling hospital safety precautions and using a Cytotoxic Safety System, effectively keeping these dangerous chemicals out of their home and the environment. Read more…
FINDINGS OF FACT
Environmental Chemo Drug Dangers
Protecting the public water supply is also a critical concern.
These Problem Chemo Drugs cannot be removed by septic systems, waste water treatment or water purification.
Surprisingly, none of the U.S. EPA’s studies and research on pharmaceuticals in our water include Cytotoxic Chemo Drugs.
This lack of research is particularly disturbing due to the certainty of serious illness caused by any level of exposure. Read more…
