Study Shows Toxic Chemical Found in Cows Milk
By TERENCE CHEA, AP
SAN FRANCISCO (June 22) - Young children and pregnant women who drink milk
from California cows may be exposed to unsafe levels of a toxic chemical used in
rocket fuel, according to a new study by an environmental group.
The study released Tuesday by the Environmental Working Group comes as state
and federal regulators consider setting new standards to regulate perchlorate
- the explosive ingredient in missile fuel that has been linked to thyroid
damage.
