Dr. Mercola warns of Bromide dangers. Bromines replace iodine in the thyroid. Iodine deficiency can lead to increased risk for cancer of the breast, thyroid gland, ovary and prostate.
High risk products? Strawberries, brominated breads, brominated soft drinks, inhalers, sprays, fire retardants and pool treatments.
Solutions? Eat organic, avoid soft drinks, use ozone purification for pools, find bromine-free bakery products, provide fresh air in your home, office, car.
Quote from Dr. Mercola: “Everything that goes on you, goes in you.” And of course, what you breathe and eat is definitively absorbed.
