The aim is to explore how the movie represents MCS. Thank you for listening! Please subscribe where you get your podcasts and share your feedback.

Episode 57 of The Chemical Sensitivity Podcast is available now!https://www.chemicalsensitivitypodcast.org/It’s the first in an ongoing series that we’re calling The MCS Podcast Book Club. I’m speaking with four women with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) — two in the U.S. and two from Canada. They are Caren Kirk, Donna Reid, Jacqueline Rice, and Ronda Sternhagen.The women share their thoughts about the 2020 book, “The Sensitives: The Rise of Environmental Illness and the Search for America's Last Pure Place” by Oliver Broudy. The book is about a journey Broudy took to try to understand MCS. We discuss how the author conducted a lot of research, outlines how we are all exposed to toxic chemicals, but according to my guests, fails to put the false argument that MCS is in our heads to rest. Share your thoughts about the conversation and the book.Please subscribe where you get your podcasts.DISCLAIMER: THIS WEBSITE DOES NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL ADVICE The information, including but not limited to, text, graphics, images, and other material contained on this website are for informational purposes only.
