From CNN: And some of the things are organic. All in all, the FDA has tallied more than 1,000 indirect food additive chemicals in packaging and food processing, but food is just one of the ways we are exposed to industrial chemicals. EWG research reveals "more than 200 pollutants in tap water supplies across the country; thousands of chemicals in cosmetics and personal care products; 470 industrial chemicals and pesticides in human tissues; and an average of 200 pollutants in each of 10 babies tested at the moment of birth." Nothing is known, EWG notes, about the safety of the complex mixtures of low doses of a myriad of industrial chemicals in the human body.
