Properties. Molecular formula, C2H6O2 ... reacts with water to produce ethylene glycol according to the chemical equation
 
Physics question: What is the chemical formula for antifreeze? antifreeze, ethylene glycol, C2 H4 (OH)2

antifreeze

C2H6O2/ C2H4(OH)2

 

2-butoxyethanol formula is:  *etc

 
C6H14O2/ CH3(CH2)2CH2OCH2CH2OH

 

Drinking Alcohol C2H6O / Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), the active ingredient in alcoholic drinks,

 

What is the pattern of harm?  CFIDS, CFS, FM with various autoimmune issues:  http://www.valdezlink.com/re/health/nooneb.htm

I suspect dehydration is one of the autoimmune issues that exposure to glycol ether chemicals would cause. When dehydration shows up, other autoimmune issues would be there, and new health issues would pile on. "...when dehydration produces health problems, instead of correcting the dehydration and its metabolic complications, people are given toxic medications." We have seen dehydration mentioned for Sect of State, Hillary Clinton & General Petraeus and in both their cases, also fainting (which I suspect the damaged red blood cells would cause) Before his death (Died 6-27-2010) Senator Robert Byrd had serious dehydration. Glycol ethers defat the skin and cause 'drying' They are also cause of many autoimmune metabolic issues. To help you understand, look at the chemical formulas of ethanol (drinking alcohol), antifreeze & 2-butoxyethanol:

            What causes dehydration?   <---link

Could it be an autoimmune issue?

This is the chemical formula of Polyethylene Glycol (an inactive ingredient of prenatal vitamins) & the only ingredient named in Miralax:  http://www.valdezlink.com/re/drugs/miralax.htm

HO-CH2-(CH2-O-CH2-)n-CH2-OH

 
What are the glycol ethers?  *  *

Glycol: any of a class of organic chemicals characterized by having separate two hydroxyl (-OH) groups, contribute to high water solubility, hygroscopicity and reactivity with many organic compounds, on usually linear and aliphatic carbon chain. The general formula is CnH2n(OH)2 or (CH2)n(OH)2.

THE USA recognized that exposure to 2-butoxyethanol causes anemia * <--- link
