Re: Fwd: Thierry Mugler ADMITS PERFUME HARMFUL/DANGEROUS

[Guest guest]

HI, All --

To all of you who are undertaking such efforts, please feel free to

use in your behalf the work that has preceded you. Also, please feel

free to share this info far and wide, if you find it helpful. I'm not

on all of the lists due to my own health battles with renal failure .

.. . most recent tests showed I was at stage five, but I still feel

fine.

Getting MSDS for chemicals found is the same type of effort that

Kendall did in the early 1990s. She took info from MSDS and

then connected that with the information from an EPA study of 31

fragrance products. I know because I worked with her to put her

efforts into a one-page 8.5 x 11 flyer. You can get to her work at

http://users.lmi.net/~wilworks/ehnhompg/kendall.htm She had only

asked that when using her work, she was given credit. I respect her

wish posthumously and trust you all will, too.

Then, in 1998 and 1999 in preparation for what became EHN's petition

of the FDA, and assigned docket number 99P-1340 by that agency, Betty

Bridges and I had perfumes analyzed. We also had just one perfume

analyzed by a second lab, which was also a member of the industry.

Then, with me as sous chef, we searched for the MSDS to the chemicals

found through reverse engineering. The FDA was given its required

four copies, which included all fo the MSDS we were able to find at

that time.

The petition is up online at both EHN (my donated site to EHN --

http://www.ehnca.org) and at Betty's Fragranced Products Informatiion

Network (http://www.fpinva.org).

On EHN's site, on the Table of Chemicals found in Calvin Klein's

Eternity eau de parfum, I've also added information garnered from

EPA's Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Inventory

(http://msds.pdc.cornell.edu/tscasrch.asp) and from the Registry of

Toxic Effects of Chemical Substances. (RTECS)

(http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/rtecs.html). That info is available at

http://users.lmi.net/~wilworks/FDApetition/analysis.htm

On FPIN the analysis is available at

http://www.fpinva.org/Activist/FDAanalysis.htm

For those of you who have yet to write to the US Food and Drug

Administration regarding the adverse events* you suffer when

encountering fragrance products, please take the golden opportunity

to do so now. Just email the FDA at fdadockets@... and include

on the SUBJECT LINE: 99P-1340

For more information on writing to the FDA, please visit

http://users.lmi.net/wilworks/FDApetition/bkgrinfo.htm#communication

The entire petition begins at

http://users.lmi.net/wilworks/FDApetition/bkgrinfo.htm on EHN's site.

May I remind all of you that oil is considered a " natural " product so

you've got to be mindful of the wits who will throw that one in your

face. They sure do so with table salt. Every time you breathe a word

about reducing the use of pesticides, you'll get Monsanto's famous

line about table salt being a poison.

Just be prepared mentally if going to court.

And for more information/documentation about the harmful effects of

fragrances, please check EHN's section, Fragrance Info at

http://users.lmi.net/~wilworks/ehnlinx/f.htm#Fragrance

We ALL are stakeholders when it comes to breathing.

Best wishes to all,

* " Adverse event " is the phrase used by the FDA and takes into

consideration everything from an upset stomach to premature death.

And believe you me, fragrances, like drugs, can cause everything from

an upset stomach to premature death.
