Food

Many chemically sensitive people must avoid going into stores due to the poor indoor air quality. Organic foods are best because they present fewer chemicals and pesticides for the body to try to handle. Many chemically sensitive people use co-ops which carry organic food such as http://www.azurestandard.com or United Natural Foods (Customer Service (800) 679-6733).
