"I come to this as a mother and a medical doctor very concerned about what I've been seeing in the clinics...   specifically, asthma rates in kids that have doubled in the last 10 years, which is a red flag in the field of public health if there ever was one, for a serious illness to have actually doubled in incidence in 10 years; many cancers that are on the rise, especially in children, where cancer rates have increased 30 percent since the 1950s; and an epidemic of learning disabilities and behavior problems that are increasingly linked to household and environmental chemicals."
