Why do American Companies Sell Environmentally Unsafe Products Banned in Other Countries? http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2006/10/24/why-do-american-companies-sell-environmentally-unsafe-products-banned-in-other-countries.aspx
The Toxic Five: Why Are They Still in Our Food? Europe already banned 3 and is working on the 4th. The U.S. and Canada stand steadfast in allowing these 5 disgusting and dangerously toxic substances to remain hidden in our food supply. And even worse, new laws are being created to defend these hideous practices. http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2010/08/14/chopra-interview-july-2010.aspx
toxic paint - if it's EPA registered it means it contains toxins. VOCs - Volatile Organic Compounds. Propane sulfone, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, Texanol®, and butoxyethanol. formaldehyde and benzyne.
pesticides - round up bodywash, shampoo/conditioner/soap cleaners - don't use bleach, use hydrogen peroxide

Aspartame http://www.sweetpoison.com/ The dangers of aspartame poisoning have been a well-guarded secret since the 1980s. The research and history of aspartame is conclusive as a cause of illness and toxic reactions in the human body. Aspartame is a dangerous chemical food additive, and its use during pregnancy and by children is one of the greatest modern tragedies of all.
Why haven't you heard about this before? Partly because the diet industry is worth trillions of American dollars to corporations, and they want to protect their profits by keeping the truth behind aspartame's dangers hidden from the public. When NutraSweet® was introduced for the 'second' time in 1981, a diet craze revolutionized America's eating protocols and a well-oiled money machine was set into motion changing modern lifestyles. After more than twenty years of aspartame use, the number of its victims is rapidly piling up, and people are figuring out for themselves that aspartame is at the root of their health problems. Patients are teaching their doctors about this nutritional peril, and they are healing themselves with little to no support from traditional medicine.
Aspartame producer Ajinomoto is launching a new initiative that will rebrand the sweetener as “AminoSweet”. http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2010/03/02/old-monsanto-food-toxin-disguised-under-new-name.aspx

added two Sodium Lauryl Sulfate links. Rumor is it can cause cancer, but it keeps getting debunked. Regardless if it's cancer causing or not, it's still a very harsh chemical that I would avoid using if possible.

I don't have any links on hand about the toxic propensities, but titanium dioxide is used as a cosmetic and food coloring. Personally I know it to be a derivative of a heavy metal not naturally occurring within my body and therefore acknowledged as toxic once it enters the blood. The mainstream corporations are defending it heavily though.
