There is actually quite a bit of evidence that endocrine disrupters and estrogen mimicing compounds are prevalent in our drinking water.

The household cleaning chemical industry has been removing alkylphenolethoxolates (APE's) and non-phenolethoxoltaes (NPE's) from approved listing of surfactants (surface-active ingredients) for several years; as these compounds are thought to have a contributing effect in numerous bio and aquatic disorders.

There is also a large body of evidence that 'environmental' estrogen is more common in cattle-producing states where dairy production relies heaviliy upon drugs to promote lactation. The urine from the animals is thought to be finding its way to ground water sources.

peace,
Griff

Take a deep breath and let it out slowly. This is a huge pdf that even with cable or DSL takes a little time to open.

I'll summarize it for you: a cause and effect relationship exists.

Relax.

peace,
Griff

I didn't realize that my comments cause you discomfort.

In the future I will walk on the other side of the street when I see you coming my way.

Or maybe you could just build a bridge and get over it.

peace,
Griff
