"EPA Faces Decision On Chemical Linked To Brain Damage In Children"

"When Claudia Angulo was pregnant with her son, she often felt nauseated and experienced vomiting and headaches.

She didn’t think much of it, until after she learned her son had Attention Deficit Hyper Disorder and difficulties with language and learning.

Angulo said she later discovered that a chemical she had been exposed to through her job — which involved taste-testing produce before it was washed — has been associated with health risks including brain damage in children."
