Most of your question has been answered
before in the following posts but at the
risk of duplicating most of this to add to
the load on Ralph Nader's Essential.org

Dioxin toxicity has its own symptoms but
also assumes the symptoms of toxicity
of any toxins that now cannot be removed
by the suppressed P450 detox system.
e.g. formaldehyde
