Number of YES answers _________________

Your total number of YES answers determines your relative toxicity level. (Please note: this is not a scientific test or health evaluation. It simply suggests the possible extent to which you carry a body burden of chemicals.)

1-15 Mildly Toxic
16-28 Generally Toxic
29-45 Very Toxic
46-65 Severely Toxic

As you no doubt noticed, you are toxic even if you answered only a few questions in the affirmative. Toxicity varies only by degree. That reality generally reflects the findings from widespread blood tests conducted by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
