Headaches, respiratory tract irritation, coughing, dizziness, and fatigue are all symptoms of the flu. They are also common symptoms of short-term exposure to harmful volatile organic compounds.
Volatile organic compounds, also known as VOCs, are organic compounds that evaporate at low temperatures and release harmful vapors into the air. When this happens out-of-doors, the fumes contribute to air pollution and climate change. Living without VOCs is possible, however, when they build up inside, they create an unhealthy indoor environment.
Other warning signs of short-term exposure to harmful VOCs may include eye irritation and visual issues, loss of coordination, skin reactions, nausea, or memory impairment. Scary, right?
The good news is once you’re away from the toxic VOCs causing the symptoms, they will subside. And if you suspect that you are or have been exposed to dangerous VOCs, it’s imperative to STOP the exposure.
Prolonged exposure to toxic VOCs can cause kidney, liver, and central nervous system damage. It’s precisely for these reasons that in 1985, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) began regulating and limiting VOCs found in many building materials.
Until recently, many flooring products contained dangerous VOCs.
