4. The generaton of women 20 to 40 have been raised on fear

The media lets them know that they need to be spraying Lysol with its Alkyl ingredients, all about their homes, if they want to avoid some illnesses like the common cold.

And of course, what young woman doesn't want to avoid having her house smell musty even once in a while? The ads let them know how it better to have Febreeze, and Glade sprayed everywhere, even the nursery. World Health Org has stated that these products contain benzene and/or formaldehyde, a known carcinogen. Often, a young woman doesn't even have a choice regarding these chemicals. Inside the work place, her cubicle may have been blasted with such products the night before by the cleaning crew. She might not even be aware that she is dealing with these toxins.

In earlier times, someone made a nasty smell in the bathroom and then they lit a match. Now we have people spraying this crap, and oodles of it, and no one in the health field feels it is worth considering whether or not these products are part of the problem.
