"Since you can't trust the system to be your "bodyguard," the best move is to be your own expert. For your "mysterious" allergies, I highly recommend using the Environmental Working Group (EWG) or the SkinSAFE database. These are third-party non-profits that: Don't take money from the companies they rate. Break down every single chemical by its "hazard score" (1-10). Ignore what the CPSC says and look at the raw biology. Validation Note: It is okay to be angry that your health is a "variable" in someone else's profit equation. That isn't paranoia; it's an observation of how the current 2026 economic engine is tuned."
