Official Government List of Known Human Carcinogens -- Chemicals Which Cause Cancer in Humans

Are you concerned about cancer, and chemicals which cause cancer? Would you like to learn more about which chemicals, including some you encounter virtually every day, have been conclusively proven to cause cancer and cancer deaths in human beings?  Would you like to protect your health, and the health of your family, by avoiding human carcinogens -- chemicals proven to cause cancer in human beings -- to the extent possible?

The Federal Government has released its official list of Known Human Carcinogens, and Environmental Tobacco Smoke [ETS] is among those chemicals listed, along with asbestos, benzine, and radon.  This official government report also lists directly inhaled tobacco smoke and smokeless tobacco (such as snuff) as "Agents, Substances, Mixtures or Exposure Circumstances Known To Be Human Carcinogens."

For the benefit of readers who would like to know more, ASH presents the complete official government list of all known human carcinogens.  ASH also presents the official government list of  those substances "reasonably anticipated" to be human carcinogens.  Both are presented in a form where the information can easily be downloaded and/or printed without the need for Adobe Acrobat or other additional programs.

Altogether more than 200 dangerous cancer-causing chemicals are listed.  You can check it out to help prevent unnecessary cancer risks to you and your family by avoiding these cancer causing substances - human carcinogens.

YOU OWE IT TO YOUR FAMILY'S HEALTH TO CHECK OUT THIS OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT REPORT OF CANCER CAUSING CHEMICALS.
