June 6, 2011 – Segment 1

Remember the scare over BPA in plastic water bottles?  Have you ever wondered what other chemicals are in common products, and how they affect us?  Our guest today is McKay Jenkins, who set out to find about about the many (and often unregulated) chemicals we’re exposed to every day.  His new book is What’s Gotten Into Us?: Staying Healthy in a Toxic World.
You can meet McKay and enjoy some delicious food this Wednesday, June 8th, at the first ever Breathe Books Dish and Dine at Dogwood!  First enjoy a meal with McKay at the Dogwood Restaurant, and then head down to the store for a book talk.  For more information, click here and scroll down to June 8th.
