I am disturbed by Ms. Axmith's comments. She said that the chemical remains in human blood for only 24 hours. Therefore, if I do a blood analysis and I find DEHP in that blood, that means that I was in contact with that chemical only 24 hours ago. It's incredible that this chemical was found in the blood of 26 patients tested. That means that we are constantly in contact with that chemical. We're told that it is eliminated quickly, that there is no cumulative effect and there is no reaction between chemicals in the blood. That's what I'm hearing.
