| What are VOCs and what produces VOCs? |
What are the health
effects of VOC exposure? |
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are emitted by thousands of commonly used household items. From cleansers and paint to formaldehyde-treated furniture and PVC-encased electronic equipment, most indoor air is permeated with potentially harmful chemical gasses. Some VOCs are odorless; some have a distinct, even pleasant smell.
|
Exposure to some VOCs can cause irritations to the skin and mucous membranes, gastrointestinal distress, dizziness. VOC exposure can exacerbate respiratory problems such as asthma. One recent study shows a strong correlation between high exposure to chemicals in childhood and developing Multiple Chemical Sensitivities (MCS) in adulthood.
The long-term effects of VOCs are still under investigation. Many are known to cause cancer in laboratory animals and are suspected of causing cancer in adults. |
