It is too bad that diabetes gets blamed for so many health issues, when it is only a minor side effect of exposure to 2-butoxyethanol. Not only will there be abnormal blood sugar (high or low) but part of autoimmune hypothalamus will also be abnormal blood pressure and abnormal body temperature. Toxicologists will tell you, if you have been poisoned by a chemical ... not only avoid it, but also avoid other chemical exposures ... of which medications, in my opinion, is one of the worst inventions of man. "Do no harm" Disclosing the exposures to 2-butoxyethanol in our home cleaning products & minimizing exposure to this chemical in the military will go a long way to helping our people to live longer and to live in health. http://www.valdezlink.com/re/drugs/list.htm
