How Pesticides Can Effect Your Health

What do you do when your body begins to disintegrate and your doctors can't explain why? Author Faye Hueston joins Danika to explain how she fell victim to a mysterious illness. After years of wrong diagnoses and declining health, a clinical ecology doctor finally identified Ms. Hueston's condition: a collapsed immune system due to exposure to pesticides.

Faye Hueston was born in California, but lived for many years in France, Italy, and England. Some years ago, while living in London, Faye fell victim to a mysterious illness. A battery of doctors was unable to find any reason for her strange and debilitating symptoms, and dismissed her complaints as psychosomatic. After years of wrong diagnoses and declining health, a clinical ecology doctor finally identified Ms. Hueston's condition: a collapsed immune system due to exposure to pesticides. Throughout her experience she kept a diary of symptoms, setbacks and fears that accompanied her on her long road back to good health.
