Consumer Toxic Products

Protecting Consumers from the Hidden Dangers of Toxic Chemicals in Everyday Products

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the long, complex ingredient lists on household products? Unfortunately, these complicated names often conceal real health risks. Many well-known manufacturers, including major brands, fill their product labels with unpronounceable ingredients that may pose serious health risks, from skin irritation to cancer.

Mr. Sacks is here to assist clients who can expose toxic chemicals in products which will create health issues for thousands of innocent people like them. All due to the lies, cost savings and savagery of our industries due to unsafe, toxic or cancer causing chemicals in personal care, household goods, and food packaging. Whether you’ve been affected by synthetic fragrances, harmful dyes, or oil derivatives, we can help you explore your options.

Hidden Hazards in Common Ingredients

One alarming example is the laxative MiraLAX, often prescribed to children, which contains PEG 3350, a petroleum-derived chemical linked to serious health risks. This compound, closely related to antifreeze, breaks down into a carcinogen known as 1,4 Dioxane. PEG 3350 can also disrupt a child’s microbiome—a critical factor in their digestive and overall health. This example raises a broader concern about toxic ingredients approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that remain prevalent in U.S. consumer goods.

In contrast, many countries across Europe and Asia have banned substances like PEG 3350, taking action based on World Health Organization (WHO) warnings. In the U.S., however, regulatory approval for these harmful chemicals remains unchanged, leaving consumers vulnerable to exposure without proper information.

Regulatory Challenges

Despite clear risks, synthetic fragrances, toxic dyes, and petroleum-derived ingredients continue to be common in personal care products and food packaging in the United States. Why? The answer lies in powerful chemical lobbying, which has influenced regulatory standards for decades. The FDA and other regulatory agencies face intense industry pressure, often prioritizing corporate profits over public health, which can leave consumers feeling helpless in the face of harmful products.
