This is the site for the updated (2006) second edition of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity: A Survival Guide by Pamela Reed Gibson, Ph.D., who has researched the life impacts of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) since 1992.
This book provides crucial information, support and resources for understanding and coping with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS). Chapters address causes, cleaning up your home, treatments, coping, social support, disability issues and many other topics. Extensive resources are included in the appendices. The site contains excerpts from each chapter, an order form and organizational links.

Environmental Health Perspectives Report on MCS

Sept 2003

More than 12% of Population Reports Extreme Sensitivity to Low Levels of Common Chemicals

Study Published Today in Environmental Health Perspectives Finds 1.8% of Population Loses Job as Result.

Prevention is the key to escaping chemical sensitivities.
With the right information, you can make small changes that make a big difference in your health and your children's health.
