The enormous increase in the use of new chemicals since World War II has led not only to the pollution of the outdoor environment but also to a sharp decrease in the quality of indoor air in the home and workplace. As a result, more and more people are developing a condition known as multiple chemical sensitivity, or MCS. These people experience symptoms upon exposure to even low levels of the chemicals found in perfume, air fresheners, cleaning products, fabric softeners, diesel and auto exhaust, new carpet, paint, and other products. This documentary illustrates the devastating effects that MCS has had on the lives of over a dozen people from various backgrounds and also includes discussion from leading physicians in the field.


 

"Your video does an excellent job in explaining current thinking about the causes of the problem and how it can be best addressed. I especially applaud your including in the production some of the most knowledgeable MCS experts in the country."
  Senator Bernard Sanders (I-VT)
 
"Multiple Chemical Sensitivity is professionally produced, highly credible, and the best video presentation of MCS I have seen to date."
  Diane Thomas, editor
The Human Ecologist
 
"This is a terrific video. While there may be some people who would remain unconvinced by it, they must be few and far between. . . . The tone of the video is moderate and balanced, but the ominous implications of these patients’ sufferings and struggles are never far below the surface. . . . I cannot recommend it too highly."
  Lynn Lawson, author of Staying Well in a Toxic World
