Researchers found that chemicals in common household products like disinfectants, furniture, and glues could damage developing brain cells in lab tests and mice.

A new study suggests common household chemicals pose a threat to brain health that could result in neurological diseases.

Two classes of pervasive environmental chemicals that are present in household cleaners, furniture and electronics had "surprising" effects specifically on the non-nerve cells in the brain.

A recent study published in the Nature Neuroscience journal by a team of researchers from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine has highlighted the potential link between exposure to chemicals commonly found in everyday household items and various neurological diseases.

They suggest that chemicals found in a wide range of items, from furniture to hair products, may be linked to neurological diseases like multiple sclerosis and autism spectrum disorders.</p>

Household chemicals, including those found in hair treatments, furniture sprays and disinfectants, could pose a threat to brain health and may be linked to neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis and autism.

Children are particularly vulnerable to these chemicals, the researchers warned.

Certain household chemicals, including those found in personal-care products and furniture, pose a risk to brain health, potentially contributing to diseases like multiple sclerosis and autism.

A team led by scientists at the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine has identified a new therapeutic approach for combating neurodegenerative diseases, offering hope of improved treatments for Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Vanishing White Matter disease and multiple sclerosis, among others.
