Pesticides & Flame Retardants Linked to ADHD

My husband saw this great article on Google News this weekend, and I had to pass it along to you.

Basically, it's a study done by a UC Berkeley professor who "found higher pesticide exposure during pregnancy was significantly associated with attention problems in children aged 5 years."


Pesticides are proven neurotoxins, which means they are toxic to the nervous system- which includes the brain, spine, and eyes.
