Best Answer

Dioxin refers to a family of more than seventy isomers of highly toxic, man-made organic compounds. These are byproducts of some industrial processes and waste incineration. This poisoning is when the body is exposed to higher concentrations of dioxin, and it can cause organ disease, increased risk of cancer, a suppressed immune system and hormonal imbalances.
