Endocrine disrupting chemicals- silent weapons in a quiet war

[Macnamara]

Endocrine disrupting chemicals that can mimic hormones are being placed in many every day goods by the cabal owned corporations to wage a war on human health.

 

The chemicals can have many negative health impacts including gender bending people leading to gender identity issues. Most people are not even aware of these chemicals and will certainly never make any connection between their health problems and the hidden environmental toxins that they have been exposed to. We are told that male sperm counts have crashed in half over the last few decades and if we carry on at this rate.....well, it will all be over for us. It is an emergency that no one is talking about and i suggest a quiet war is being waged against us through these weaponised chemicals. Mobile phones kept in peoples pockets may be responsible for some of the fertility issues but they can't explain away early onset of puberty in girls or upticks in genital deformities or the increases in gender identity issues

 

The trans agenda then NORMALISES the changes that are wrought on society so that no one ever asks any questions about why so many physiological changes are occuring to the population. its war folks, but not as we know it.

 

I'll post examples as they come up

How your shampoo bottle could be making you FAT: Scientists discover 11 chemicals in common plastics that contribute to weight gain

• Study has found 11 chemicals in common plastics that contribute to weight gain
• It looked at 34 different plastic products to see which chemicals they contained
• These included yoghurt containers, kitchen sponges and shampoo/drink bottles
• 11 of 55,000 chemical components in them known to interfere with metabolism

It may sound like a bizarre way to gain weight, but a new study suggests that plastics in shampoo bottles could actually be making people fat. 

That's because scientists have discovered 11 chemicals that can affect our metabolism and contribute to weight gain in everyday products such as drinks bottles, kitchen sponges and hair conditioners.

Researchers from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology looked at 34 different plastic products to see which chemicals they contained.  

They found more than 55,000 different chemical components in the products and identified 629 of the substances, 11 of which are known to be metabolism-disrupting chemicals.

'Our experiments show that ordinary plastic products contain a mix of substances that can be a relevant and underestimated factor behind overweight and obesity,' said Martin Wagner, an associate professor at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.

For a long time, experts believed that most plastic chemicals would stay in these everyday products, but Wagner's team has shown that they leach a large number under real world conditions.

This allows the chemicals to then enter the body. 

Previous research has also suggested that some plastics contain endocrine-disrupting chemicals, also known as 'obesogens', that may affect our development and fertility.

However, now it appears they may be to blame for weight gain as well.

That's because chemicals from one third of the plastic products investigated in the new study were found to contribute to fat cell development in laboratory experiments. 

The substances in these products reprogramed precursor cells to become fat cells, which in turn rapidly multiplied and accumulated more fat.

Defog sprays used to stop glasses steaming up when wearing a face mask could be exposing people to cancer-causing chemicals, study warns

• Duke University-led researchers analysed nine popular anti-fogging products
• They found all contain 'fluorotelomer alcohols' and 'fluorotelomer ethoxylates'
• These both types of so-called per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS)
• Little is known about the health impacts of the particular PFAS the team found
• However, some PFAS are linked to cancer, immune issues and thyroid disease
• And there is fear the identified chemicals may break down into harmful variants

The anti-fogging sprays and cloths that have become popular to help stop glasses from steaming up when wearing a face mask may be exposing users to carcinogens. 

That is the warning from Duke University-led experts, who found these treatments may contain cancer-causing per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS). 

The team subjected four anti-fogging sprays and five anti-fogging cloths — all of which have received top ratings on Amazon — to high-resolution mass spectrometry.

Specifically, the chemical analysis found that all nine products contained so-called fluorotelomer alcohols (FTOHs) and fluorotelomer ethoxylates (FTEOs).

These are two types of PFAS that have, until now, largely flown under the radar — meaning that scientists are not certain what health impacts they may carry.

However, research has suggested that, once inhaled or absorbed via the skin, FTOHs could well break down in the body into other, long-lived and toxic forms of PFAS.

Such may include perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), which — along with perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) — has been linked to disorders like cancer.

The True Cost of Rockefeller Agriculture and the New Food Agenda

Jan 16, 2022 | Environment, Investigations

Food as Information

Despite the reductionist, body-as-a-machine doctrine expounded by the transhumanists, new research argues that food is a form of information and that this information interacts directly with our genetic infrastructure, effecting epigenetic changes by turning on and off various genes – “You are what you eat”, as the old adage goes.

“Epigenetics” refers to the science of how cells control gene activity without changing the DNA sequence. Our food and our environment are two important factors that drive epigenetic changes. One of the primary epigenetic mechanisms is DNA methylation – a process that regulates gene expression by altering protein activity and/or inhibiting the binding of transcription factors.

Abnormal DNA methylation is observed in cancer patients and as researchers note, “Dietary nutrient intake and bioactive food components are essential environmental factors that may influence DNA methylation”. The discovery of epigenetics revealed the profound importance of food intake on disease risk and phenotypic expression.

But DNA methylation is not the only mechanism by which food interacts with our DNA. All food, whether of plant or animal origin, contains non-coding RNA that can survive digestion to affect profound changes in the expression of our genes. These RNAs are shuttled in virus-sized (!) “microvesicles” (also called “exosomes”). A groundbreaking study published in 2011 found that exogenous plant micro RNAs could regulate gene expression changes in humans.

These findings may extend the role of exosomes to that of interspecies communication, thereby highlighting the significance of food as a source of information transfer, affecting the body on a nutritional, energetic and genetic level.

Another source of information comes from the microbes that accompany most plant foods. The “microbiome” as it’s termed refers to the collective microbial (fungal, bacterial, etc) content of our body, much of which is found in the gut. Recent discoveries have illuminated the importance of the microbiome and its role in nearly every chronic disease from depression to cardiovascular disease.

Beneficial microbes help to regulate bowel pH, produce vitamins, maintain mucosal integrity, regulate immune function, reduce inflammation, and ferment complex carbohydrates that are normally inaccessible to human digestion.

Microbes represent a profound “store” of information, relayed to us through the food we eat. Fermented foods (such as kimchi) are thus irreplaceable sources of beneficial bacteria that help to promote optimal bowel conditions, reduce disease risk and restore balance to a microbiome decimated by overly processed foods, glyphosates and other toxins common to modern-day life. 

Understanding food as more than merely a source of energy allows us to comprehend the magnitude of the agenda that seeks to promote the consumption of genetically modified, synthetically produced, test-tube mulch cooked-up in corporate laboratories. With this firmly in mind, we are now prepared to dive into the history of GMOs and modern “agribusiness”, with an emphasis on highlighting the role of the Rockefellers and other wealthy elite actors.

The next asbestos-type scandal in the making?

Cleaning products could expose people to pollution particles at the same rate as a CAR EXHAUST, study warns

• Academics have performed real-time observations in realistic indoor conditions
• They used a commercial cleaner to mop surfaces while measuring chemicals  
• Study has implications for people who have worked with Covid-19 disinfectants 

By Jonathan Chadwick For Mailonline

Published: 19:00 GMT, 25 February 2022 | Updated: 19:00 GMT, 25 February 2022

Commercial cleaners for sanitising indoor surfaces may deposit small pollutant particles into human respiratory tracts at rates equal to or higher than aerosols from vehicles, they found. 

The new findings may have implications for people who have worked heavily with disinfectant sprays during the Covid pandemic.

Some staff have been spending entire working days frequently dousing touch-point surfaces in offices to prevent SARS-CoV-2 transmission. 

The study has been led by Colleen Rosales, an environmental scientist at University of California, Davis and published today in Science Advances.  

Scientists have known that cleaning indoor surfaces with disinfectants can generate secondary indoor pollutants as gases and aerosols.

But there have been few studies capturing secondary organic aerosol formation in realistic indoor conditions. 

A secondary organic aerosol (SOA) is a molecule produced via oxidation over several generations of a parent organic molecule. 

'SOA accounts for a major fraction of the global atmospheric aerosol burden,' said Professor Annele Virtanen, an atmospheric scientist at University of Eastern Finland, who was not involved in the study. 

'Understanding the mechanism of formation and the properties of SOA is therefore important to estimate its effects on climate, air quality, and human health.'

To learn more about SOA formation indoors, the US team focused on monoterpenes, a class of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Monoterpenes are released from a very wide range of sources including cooking, foodstuffs, plants and multiple kinds of fragranced products.  

In an indoor setting, monoterpenes can mix with ozone to form particles that may bury inside the lungs.

American children are losing millions of IQ points thanks to exposure to toxic chemicals

 

---

 Are young people getting dumber? It sounds like a harsh sentiment, but it’s one that crosses many people’s minds when we hear about some of the risky stunts young people pull to attract more “likes” on social media, like the Tide pod challenge. And while the internet might bring out the worst in a lot of attention-seekers – while also bringing these poor decisions to our attention more so than in the past – it turns out that young people really are losing IQ points thanks to the prevalence of toxic chemicals in our environment.

Research from New York University’s Grossman School of Medicine found that exposure to just a single type of toxic chemicals – flame retardants – has been enough to rob young people of a total of 162 million IQ points, in addition to causing 738,000 cases of intellectual disability.

Unfortunately, that’s not the only toxic chemical we are being increasingly exposed to, and others have caused just as much damage. For example, lead exposure has resulted in the loss of 78 million IQ points in American children, while pesticides and mercury have been linked to the loss of 27 million and 2.5 million IQ points, respectively. This is according to a study that was published in the journal Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology.

While it’s fair to say that all of us are being exposed to these toxins, young people are particularly susceptible to negative effects because their brains are still in early developmental stages.

NYU public health researcher Leo Trasande said: “Kids’ brain development is exquisitely vulnerable. If you disrupt, even with subtle effects, the way a child’s brain is wired, [it] can have permanent and lifelong consequences.”

Researchers believe that most of the children who have been negatively impacted by toxins were exposed in the womb through the types of objects found in many homes, setting the stage for a lifetime of problems before they even entered the world.

For example, flame retardants are found in all sorts of furniture items and electronics – and even more concerningly, in children’s clothing. Lead, meanwhile, is largely associated with older homes, but it is still used in commercial paint, including the type that is used to paint playground equipment.

Pesticides are everywhere, and one of the biggest sources is the fresh produce that so many pregnant women consume to enhance their health during pregnancy and feed to their growing children thanks to the nutritional value it provides.

What price are we paying for our toxic lifestyles?

The researchers report that a single IQ point is worth around 2 percent of an individual’s lifetime economic productivity. And while the loss of one or two IQ points might not be immediately noticeable at the individual level, the cumulative effects can be felt in the economy at large.

“If a child comes back from school with one less IQ point, maybe mum or the parent might not notice. But if 100,000 children come back with one less IQ point, the entire economy notices,” Trasande noted.

Put more simply, if a child’s ultimate lifetime productivity is $1 million, losing an IQ point is equal to $20,000.

The effects of this serious childhood brain damage are costing the economy trillions of dollars. According to Trasande’s estimates, lost IQ points from 2001 to 2016 from the aforementioned toxins represents a $6 trillion loss in the American economy, without factoring in the extra care or social services needed to help those who have experienced brain damage due to toxin exposure.

If there is any good news here, it’s the fact that the use of some these toxins has already been reduced thanks to the growing body of evidence demonstrating the damage that they cause. However, many of them persist in the environment despite having their use suspended, and pesticide use remains a serious problem.

Times the government and medical fraternity got it WRONG

 

In recent years people seem to have elevated doctors and politicians upto some new dizzying technocrat status where they are treated as 'experts' by the public instead of seen with skepticism as people who may be acting with vested interests. In case people forgot, here are some examples of the 'experts' getting it wrong:

 

-Thalidomide

-Asbestos

-Swine flu vaccine roll out cancelled when it killed and paralysed more people than the swine flu

-Thimerosol a mercury derivative preservative used in vaccines that brain damages children

-Epilim

-Opioids

-Remdesivir

-mRNA jabs which killed the animal test subjects in their preliminary stages but which were then resurrected by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in time to roll them out globally after they war-gamed a global pandemic in Event 201 which they then took live

Glyphosate (the active ingredient in monsantos 'roundup' herbicide that is sprayed on crops and also used by gardeners as a weedkiller) weakens the blood brain barrier allowing toxins to pass over including aluminium which is used as an adjuvant in vaccines and once it is in the brain it is able to negatively affect gene expression causing a range of health problems that will rarely be traced back to the vaccine or the herbicide as a synergistic cause of the problems:

Effects of glyphosate and aminomethylphosphonic acid on an isogeneic model of the human blood-brain barrier

Abstract

Glyphosate is a pesticide used for occupational and non-occupational purposes. Because glyphosate targets a metabolic pathway absent in animals, it is considered safe for humans. Yet, case reports of accidental exposure to concentrated solutions following self-inflicted poisoning documented neurological lesions suggesting a neurotoxicity. In this study, we investigated the effect of acute exposure to glyphosate (GPH) on the blood-brain barrier in vitro based on induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and compared to two chemical analogs: aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) and glycine (GLY), for concentrations ranging from 0.1 μM to 1000 μM. GPH treatment (1 and 10 μM) for 24 h showed an increase BBB permeability to fluorescein, with similar outcomes for AMPA. In addition to its ability to disrupt the barrier function, GPH show evidence of permeability across the BBB. Although no detrimental effects were observed on neuron differentiation at high doses, we noted changes in neuronal cell metabolic activity and glucose uptake in brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) following treatment with 100 μM GPH or AMPA. Taken together, our data indicates that accidental exposure to high level of GPH may result in neurological damage via an opening of the blood-brain barrier and an alteration of glucose metabolism.

Pfizer recalls three blood pressure pills - including Accuretic and two generic brands - after finding it contains elevated levels of nitrosamines - a cancer causing impurity also found in cured meats

• Pfizer has recalled the blood pressure drug Accuretic, among others, after discovering nitrosamine impurities
• High levels of nitrosamine have been linked to multiple types of cancer after being exposed to high levels after long periods of time
• Nitrosamine can be common in some process foods, along with goods like cigarettes and makeup, and low levels are safe for humans
• The compound is often formed unintentionally as a result of a reaction between chemicals used in manufacturing and processing of goods 

By Mansur Shaheen U.S. Deputy Health Editor For Dailymail.Com

Three blood pressure medications manufactured by the pharmaceutical giant Pfizer have been recalled after a potential cancer-causing chemical compound was discovered in them.

Accuretic, along with two generic blood pressure medications licensed by the company, were found to have elevated levels of nitrosamine, which can put someone at risk of cancer if they are exposed to elevated levels.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reports that some levels of the compounds are ok, and frequent in food and drink consumed everyday, but consistent use of drugs with detected impurities can prove dangerous.

Pfizer voluntarily issued the recall on Monday and did not report any adverse events related to the impurities. The company's Canadian branch recalled another blood pressure drug, Inderal, for similar reasons last week.

Could APPLES be fuelling superbug crisis? Fungicides used to keep fruit fresh may be driving drug-resistant strains of deadly bug, scientists say

• Indian and US researchers found candida auris on 13% of market apples  
• Deadly fungus kills up to 30% of people it infects and is multidrug-resistant 
• CDC lists the fungus as one of the five most threatening pathogens in the world 

By Joe Davies Health Reporter For Mailonline

Apples may be fuelling the superbug crisis by harbouring drug-resistant strains of a deadly fungus, a study suggests.

Indian and Canadian academics believe fungicides used to keep the fruit fresh are to blame.   

Experts found candida auris present on the surface of 13 per cent of apples analysed in Delhi. All of them were stored before purchase — none were freshly picked.

Candida auris was first spotted in 2009 and has since struck hundreds in Britain and the US. 

The team admitted they 'still don't really understand' what is driving the fungus. But they speculated fungicides 'inadvertently select' the drug-resistant fungi and help it spread.

The study, published in the journal mBio, screened the surfaces of 84 different bits of fruit on sale in northern India.

This included 62 apples — 42 which were picked up in a market in Delhi and 20 that came from orchards.  

Results showed candida auris was present on eight apples — five Red Delicious and three Royal Galas.

Candida in its benign form is a yeast and is ubiquitous.

i.e. It is generally present in most/all living organisms and when the organism dies the yeast transforms to a fungi (active form) that breaks down the non living tissues, bacteria doing the rest. There are as many forms of candida as there are organism and tissue types! 

Notice how fruit and veg rot from the inside out or just evenly.

 

It is worrisome that a large proportion of people present with candida symptoms as this indicates that their tissues are not in an optimal state of life or rather simply dying !

- enough to trigger the transformation of candida from a benign yeast to an aggressive fungi, type dependant on tissue type and constituent.

 

Fungi, moulds bacteria are natures cleaners.

Toxicity is entirely dependant on the substrate from which they feed !

Therefore it is a no brainer that this toxic form of candida is a direct result of chemical insult.

yeah david once spoke about 'salvestrols' being a natural growth on fruit which helps to fight cancer and how that is destroyed when they are sprayed with fungicides and pesticides

 

I don't know anything about that though but what i do know is that the longer fruit and veg takes to go from being harvested to being on peoples plates the less nutritional it will be so this is an argument for LOCALISM an against the mass movement of goods around the world under globalism

NHS faces new thalidomide-style scandal over doctors giving pregnant women an epilepsy drug known to cause birth defects

• Doctors gave hundreds of pregnant women a drug known to cause birth defects
• Sodium valproate was prescribed by doctors who didn't fully explain the risks
• MP Jeremy Hunt called for a ban on prescribing the tablets to pregnant women

By Georgia Edkins Whitehall Correspondent For The Mail On Sunday

Published: 23:41 BST, 16 April 2022 | Updated: 00:11 BST, 17 April 2022

The NHS is facing a thalidomide-style scandal over doctors prescribing an epilepsy drug to pregnant women that is known to cause birth defects, it was claimed last night.

Sodium valproate was hailed as a breakthrough drug for epileptics as it helped control fits and seizures, but reports began to surface in the 1980s of babies with abnormalities being born to mothers who took the medicine during pregnancy.

Two years ago, a report criticised the failure of doctors to inform women about the dangers of the drug and said they were still not telling women the full story when prescribing.

According to The Sunday Times, the controversial drug is still being given out by the NHS, in blank packaging without instructions or warning labels.

The latest figures, published in March, show the drug was given to 247 pregnant women between April 2018 and September 2021. Around six foetuses are exposed to the drug every month.

Campaigners fear the drug could pose the same deadly risk as thalidomide, the medicine prescribed for morning sickness in pregnant women that killed 100,000 babies and left 10,000 severely disabled by the time it was withdrawn in 1961. 

Last night, former Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt called for a ban on doctors prescribing the tablets to pregnant women and demanded those affected be compensated. He told the paper: 'It beggars belief that after so many warnings this still hasn't been sorted.'

Pfizer recalls some batches of blood pressure drug over carcinogen presence

Reuters

Pfizer (PFE.N) said on Friday it was voluntarily recalling five batches of its Accupril blood pressure tablets after finding elevated levels of a potential cancer-causing agent in the medicine.

The drugmaker said it was not aware of any reports of adverse events related to the recalled batches, which were distributed in the United States and Puerto Rico from December 2019 to April 2022.

Pfizer Canada also recalled all lots of three doses of Accupril on Thursday after finding the same impurity to be above acceptable levels.Pfizer said there was no immediate risk to patients taking this medication, in which the agent, a nitrosamine, was found.

Nitrosamines are common in water and foods but exposure above acceptable levels over long periods of time could increase the risk of cancer.

Pfizer last month also recalled some batches of another blood pressure drug Accuretic and two authorized cheaper versions due to the presence of the possible carcinogen.

he said vaccines were the best investment he has ever made. Of course his cover story is that he is carrying out 'philanthropy' but in reality has had made bumper profits

why was it ever allowed to be so high in the first place?

Lead concentrations allowed in children's fruit juice to be slashed to 20% of current levels, FDA says, but consumer watchdogs slam plan as 'weak' and not protecting health

• Food and Drug Administration says permitted lead concentrations in apple juice are to be dropped to 10 parts per billion, while in others they will fall to 20ppb
•  This is taking them to up to a fifth of the currently permitted 50ppb in fruit juices
• But testing shows more than half of fruit juices have virtually no lead in them
• And barely a handful are thought to contain more than 5ppb of the heavy metal
• Consumer watchdogs blasted the FDA as 'weak' and said its plans did not go far enough to protect public health in America

Lead residues can end up in fruit juices from previous industrial processes or old pesticides, with lead-based ones regularly being sprayed on orchards until the 1950s. Some of the heavy metal is also naturally occurring.

Children exposed to high concentrations may develop learning disabilities, behavioral disorders and have a lowered IQ, the FDA says.

A pharmaceutical company has been fined £1.2m after supplying contaminated drip feeds linked to the death of three babies.

ITH Pharma Ltd, based in Wembley, was charged with multiple offences after the children died and around 20 others needed treatment at nine hospitals across the UK.

They were all given the fluid between May 27 and June 2, 2014 as nutrition directly into their bloodstream because they were unable to feed on their own. 

Legal representatives for the company, a supplier of specialist drip feeds for premature and vulnerable babies, accept that the feed was contaminated and admitted to failing to make a suitable risk assessment between 1 August 2009 and 1 June 2014.

So what would the 5G cloud do for human eggs and embryos?

Lobsters are being deformed and left unable to swim because of electromagnetic fields from undersea wind farm power cables

• Researchers recorded deformities in lobsters in a controlled study 
• They exposed eggs to electromagnetic fields similar to underwater cables
• When the eggs hatched, deformities were recorded three times more often

Lobsters are being deformed by wind farm cables and being left unable to swim, a new study has claimed.  

Electric magnetic fields created by the cables which transport energy from offshore wind farms make lobster larvae three times more like to grow deformed - with bent tail sections most common, according to Heriot-Watt University scientists.

What you eat could be stopping your medicines working: Some artificial sweeteners can affect the way the body metabolises drugs, research reveals

• Last month US study suggested sweeteners disrupt function of liver protein
• But not only example of food interfering with how well our medications work
•  Some fruit, dairy, highly-processed meats and fibrous foods also have effect

Last month research from the Medical College of Wisconsin in the U.S. suggested that some artificial sweeteners could affect the way the body metabolises certain drugs, including antibiotics, antidepressants and antivirals. 

The lab-based study showed that the artificial sweeteners (the two tested were sucralose and acesulfame potassium) disrupted the function of a protein in the liver that helps remove toxins and drugs from the body.

The researchers said this was just preliminary work, and ‘more research is needed’.
