Formaldehyde > “It’s my understanding,” the Massachusetts senator said, “that the EPA has finalized its conclusion that formaldehyde causes leukemia and other cancers and that [the] completed new assessment is ready to be released for public review, but is being held up.”

  The reason why its being held up is the important part.

    My point is that the headline is in a clickbait style.

    The reason is interesting indeed. Replacing "formaldehyde" by "a widely used chemical" is not.

you want leukemia, or GMO cotton nematode parasites infection in your head eating your brain with no doctor being able to figure out.

  Are there any cases of cotton nematodes actually infecting humans? I haven't heard of any.

      Looking at his CV, Dr. Alan MacDonald seems like a serious scientist (https://durayresearch.wordpress.com/about-2/background/curriculum-vitae-alan-b-macdonald/ https://durayresearch.wordpress.com/about-2/background/curri...), but it seems mainstream medical circles have ignored his revelations so far.

The citric acid cycle [0] of our cells, a chemical process that creates the energy we need from the food we eat and the oxygen we breathe, produces formaldehyde as a byproduct when processing alcohol. This is one reason why alcohol is cancerogenic and possibly the main reason why your body feels weird after heavy drinking.
