The 1991 Persian Gulf War still affects hundreds of thousands of American Veterans from the "toxic soup" that cut some 30 years off many of their life-spans. There has been much discussion of the toxic soup's components that have taken the terrible toll on those exposed. The significant toxic exposures were aluminum and mercury in vaccines, the oil well fires, the nerve gases that hydrolyses to hydrogen fluoride, DEET, PB, high chlorine in drinking water, methanol from "Nutrasweet" soft drinks, and other insecticides.

Chemical expousure from the toxic battlefiedl can be simular to chemo treatment.
Chemo 'brain fog' can refuse to lift
Chemotherapy might change the way the brain works, triggering mild forgetfulness in some cancer survivors, says a small study out today.
The study of breast cancer survivors suggests the mental fog known as chemobrain might last longer than once thought and shows women treated with chemotherapy a decade ago still experience subtle memory problems.
