The Top Environmental Toxins
Dr. Joseph Mercola, a leader of the U.S. wellness movement and founder of Mercola.com, has created a list of the ten most common environmental toxins. While the list is not all-inclusive, it offers an idea of the prevalence of toxins that humans are exposed to on a daily basis. The list notes PCBs, pesticides, mold, phthalates, volatile organic compounds, dioxins, asbestos, heavy metals, chloroform, and chlorine as being the most commonly encountered environmental toxins.

In order to avoid environmental toxins, Mercola recommends several actions: eat as much organic produce as possible, eat purified fish or cod liver oil instead of fish, avoid processed foods, use natural cleaning products, use natural toiletries, avoid using air fresheners, avoid food additives, and have tap water tested for contaminants.
