Perfume Linked to Diabetes

I just found this article called  "Could Your Perfume Be Giving You Diabetes?" from Rodale News. It's from a few years ago. It makes me wonder if this information is out there, why does no one seem to care?

 
It's about phalates, a common ingredient in personal care products, and how they are linked to not only diabetes, but autism, weight gain, infertility and some cancers. It also explains phalates are found in foods because these personal care products are often washed down the drain, enter our water systems, and/or the human sewage sludge is used as fertilizer on produce. Is it just me or is that really gross?

The article is from three years ago. The information is out there and still, it all goes ignored....
