The Stealth Syndromes Project (formerly known as the Stealth Epidemic Project) is an undertaking of two scientists — Lewis Perdue and Becca Yeamans — to help the general public reduce personal risk from hormone disrupting chemicals – also known as Endocrine Disruptors. To do this, Lew and Becca have created three activities that form the […]

Broken Mirrors, The Number 13, Cancer & Bad Luck
This article has two companion pieces — “Cancer: The Perfect Storm On Planet You” and “Cancer And Voldemort: 10 Horcruxes To Disaster” — that help explain to the non-scientist how luck plays a very small part in the origins and avoidance of cancer. Cancer has about as much to do with bad luck as […]
Cancer And Voldemort: 10 Horcruxes To Disaster
This is Part 2 of 2 articles. Part 1 can be accessed here: Cancer: The Perfect Storm On Planet You Cancer is a lot like Lord Voldemort, the exceedingly evil villain of the Harry Potter series who had his soul divided among seven horcruxes in order to provide himself with immortality. In the Harry Potter […]
A delay, an apology, and new opportunities going forward
On behalf of myself and co-founder Becca Yeamans-Irwin, I have to offer an apology for the delay in both the experimental protocol beginning, and the delays in content posting. One of the biggest delays has been the experimental protocol in which both Becca and I became our own lab animals, measuring BPA levels and comparing […]
What Is A Stealth Chemical?
Stealth chemicals are those whose effects show up as unrelated illnesses. This contrasts with known toxic chemicals like arsenic which are “in your face” poisons that can be readily identified by doctors and scientists. For example, endocrine disruptors such as Bisphenol A and phthalates from plastics are stealth chemicals because hundreds of scientific studies show […]
The Original “Human Lab Rat” Experimental Protocol – Old and superseded
This post is from 2014. Many changes have occurred since this, including the approval of our improved study protocol by the School of Medicine at the University of California San Francisco. Details on that are at: The Stealth Syndrome Human Study. The primary goal of the Stealth Syndromes Project is to enable the average person […]
Nano Materials As Endocrine Disruptors

Lewis Perdue – Investigative Reporting Experience
See also: Lewis Perdue, Co-Author Lewis Perdue’s investigative reporting experience dates from 1970 and continues to the present as co-founder of the Stealth Syndromes Project. His most internationally prominent investigative reporting came in Washington D.C. when, as a freelancer for Jack Anderson, he played a major role in breaking the Koreagate Congressional payoff scandals. The […]
Bisphenol A (BPA) Risk Assessment Links
Thousands of recent, well-done studies that clearly show the dangers of BPA. However, in 2014 a lack of human resources forced the Stealth Syndromes Project to abandon thus efforts to gather and categorize studies of BPA and health because there were so many of them . Wethat it could not be done even if we […]
Original Sources: 84,000 Legal Chemicals. Fewer Than 200 Tested. Only 5 Ever Banned. Here’s Where Those Numbers Come From
By Lewis Perdue on October 22, 2014 in Featured, Risk Assessment, Why You Can’t Trust Federal & Corporate “Science”
The U.S. government allows more than 84,000 chemical compounds of unknown toxicity to be legally used in food, beverages, packaging, clothing, fabrics, personal care products, cosmetics — in any part of your environment including the air, water, or soil. Unattributed variations of that number — usually ranging from 60,000 to 80,000 — seem illogical and […]
