What Exactly Is MCS?
Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) (also called idiopathic environmental intolerance) is a label used for symptoms triggered by low-level exposures to everyday chemicals (like fragrance or cleaning products). It’s a debated area medically, but the day-to-day impact for those living with it can be significant.
For many of us, it means avoiding places where others feel comfortable — stores, offices, salons, even public restrooms — because of things like scented candles, air fresheners, cleaning sprays, or perfume. These exposures can cause real, physical symptoms like headaches, brain fog, nausea, or breathing issues.
MCS isn’t “just sensitivity” — it’s a disability for many. Raising awareness helps create safer spaces for everyone.
