a new study that leads out the e_p_a_ exposure to nine grade schoolers now
these brain tumors are actually add more
probably among women
stop uh... too much exposure to the e_p_a_
now this study was done by chinese researchers and there are some high
drawbacks of the system hobby accidents that there is a cadillac have yachts now
they'd it's been studied by using uh... urine samples in the researchers
determine vpa exposure levels from a single urine sample
passes the body quickly experience p_t_a_ as sample taken after a tumor has
already developed is not necessarily indicate that exposure to the chemical
pre dat the elements
so that is the caddy out so it would be doing is a test of the urine sample
those who have the highest p_p_h_ in there and you're in hyatt tended to have
that the higher incidence of these uh... particular benign brain tumors or their
background on d_p_ aids in this phenolic day
and it is uh... plastics at at at that makes plastic scurvy and malleable
it's on the line and of almost every single aluminum can in the united states
etc
it's used in plastic water bottles to commit my scurvy structure
and it misses into things we know this is is well-established it's also well
established that
approximately ninety three percent of americans have levels of elevated levels
of the e_p_a_ has gone away
in their blood and it has been linked it has been studied quite as extensively as
it should have them before it was put into our food supply india packaging
but we have um... studies right now that shelf that it has been linked because it
said it
it mimics therefore mon estrogen vpa midsummer moon estrogen so studies have
shown that say in the lab that it can change the sex
is correlated with changing the sex of amphibians like frogs it's also been
correlated with
reproductive alburn abnormalities in the boys by animals all exposed one of the
things that that that great
came across that i was reading about this topic is that
you know the young girls as young as eight years old are basically going
through puberty and one of the reasons why is because of too much exposure to
this and this is one of the uh...
one of the factors that researchers are looking into extensively right now
because of the high correlation there singing because it doesn't make i i
suggest that so that's why it's not too far-fetched to think that vpa is the
cause of that
now before we get more into the start talking about and that's with video
uh... where he had the talk about the affects of
b_p_ exposure and what it does the human body let's watch
it animal studies exposure to be p_a_ has been linked to birth defects
in humans as part of the author modus operandi to diabetes and heart disease
you know enough about babies and children's exposure to harm understand
there's
together we see protecting them as much as possible
so what's incredible about this case that you know we have some sites behind
it
uh... led the research has not been a as extensive as it should have been prior
to using the substance in our food
however now we know that this is happening wide
isn't that we're not doing anything about you don't like the f_d_a_ not
getting involved in a
this is a really big issue and of course the answer is always about the
corporation yesterday's corporations are not in favor of it that's right we are
getting on to starbucks case about using
beetle
that yeah crest mails for for color infrared coloring in their starters and
at the same time and eight-year-olds are going to keep me because of the ph the
ash well because it is correlated with the p exposure now we have to be very
clear that there has not been until wrecked
uh... direct connection may insisted that this is a very very strongly
against but
and that's because the scientific evidence and the studies have not quite
caught up with that
uh... in other countries
you know i i just like you know canada
and the european union they've taken the precautionary principle even china i
believe has done this uh...
and they have taken
the e_p_a_ alcohol of children's products you know sippy cups baby
bottles
because it is when children are in the womb and also when they're at their
youngest infantile their states devise a very small
and it is believed that the e_p_a_ could have
alittle more outsized effect for the dosage
on that you know and the f_d_a_
has been looking at this they've been looking at this very really be the
really really really really really long time
and they have decided to not regulate the e_p_a_ and that is in part to do to
heavy lobbying by the chemical industry in the temple manufacturers industry and
the plastics industry
um... you know people is even found on the formal risk these that you get
administration everywhere i remember try not to touch that stuff and if you have
to don't put into recycling i didn't notice until recently the dump but your
vpa receives uh... covered recedes into recycling to be recycled because
and it gets further into the paper supply
pieces
defeats losing its so discouraged about our food supply of al gore were putting
in twelve bodies because i feel like every week there's a new story about
what's an army
uh... what kind of pesticides in use our produce what what is there
outlive what can we do to actually eat healthy without putting chemicals in our
bodies adopting antibiotics and ideas without putting p_t_a_ tar bodies well
it's already happening but now with the advent of the internet with shows like
this where people are able to get that information help to each other is that
that peer to peer communication
where you can get a great websites that you might not have access to the
freaking data
mother jones you can go to chris dot or on all of these sites that that really
will tell you what's going on uh... outside of the corporate media that is
sort of been ac captured
by the private corporations that that have uh... that doug wilder advertising
on them so they want to protect their appetizers but you can got all these
places and get that kind of information uh... you know if you are you get that
information i feel like it
even when you think you are protecting yourself from the antibiotics in the
p_t_a_ there's always something new i think that's why people just kinda get
tired of it
and they give up at least that's the way i feel one-sided arbitration to very
hard for you know you know i forgive him for
simple it is one of these things that the people are taking action for example
here in the state of california there's a major proposition that is on the
ballot in november
and it is to allow voters to vote
on whether or not they will get to have labels on foods that contain genetically
modified organisms now this was defeated in the senate last step in two weeks ago
bernie sanders of vermont had uh... put forth an amendment to at the farm bill
saying consumers deserve to know what's in their favor
that was defeated but in california for the first time voters decide
not a legislature nine state or federal agency gets to decide whether you get to
know about this voters in california get to decide this and generally what
happens when something passes in california it does tend to trickle out
to other states
people are taking action to support those people who are taking action
you'll get more informed yourself there are things you can do buying organic
helps the organic industry survived
and when they survived were all that actually helps to change the market
itself and force p non
to organic any other processed food manufacturers to to change their ways
