Did you know your clothing could be a source of harmful chemicals entering your body? Flame retardants, insect repellents, stain-resistant treatments, and waterproofing agents are often added to fabrics, and these substances can be absorbed through your skin or inhaled.
Surprisingly, there are no federal regulations for chemicals in clothing manufactured outside the U.S., which constitutes 98% of all clothing sold in America. This lack of oversight has led to incidents like Delta flight attendants falling ill from chemicals in their uniforms and the surprising presence of BPA in sports bras.
Adding to the concern, certain federal laws even encourage using chemicals in clothing, such as the highly toxic flame retardants found in some children’s pajamas.
