Q1 "Moms with a Mission" Tip of the Week - #8: Ban Toxins

Breast Cancer Prevention Week #8: Week of Feb 22

Reminder - This is related to Early Puberty topic from Week #7.

SUPPORT EFFORTS TO GET RID OF TOXIC CHEMICALS

Phthalates have been linked to breast cancer, early puberty in girls, reduced testosterone levels, lowered sperm counts, genital defects in baby boys and testicular cancer. These chemicals are also found in products marketed to children. Support legislation that would ban phthalates in children’s toys like BCF-sponsored Toxic Toys Bill in California.
