Plastics (BPA) toxins are weakening
our immune and hormone systems
Reports
3 & 4 are particularly disturbing because scientist indicate
PPA disrupts our sexual behavior and our immune system.
Over all BPA is especially harmful to
infants, and effects their entire lives. The reports below
are just a few to verify the dangers of BPA.
Oxidative Stress, hypothalamus, and sexual problems suggest that homosexual, lesbian and transgender orientations and sexual problems are being adversely effected by toxic chemicals not genetics or thoughts.
We suggest
the reader to do further research by entering terms found
in the reports to find more information on their own.

"The lab detected BPA in fifty-seven percent of all cans...BPA
is associated with a number of health problems and diseases
that are on the rise in the U.S. population, including breast
and prostate cancer and infertility. Given widespread human
exposure to BPA and hundreds of studies showing its adverse
effects, the FDA and EPA must act quickly to set safe levels
for BPA exposure based on the latest science on the low-dose
toxicity of the chemical.." http://www.ewg.org/reports/bisphenola
2."ScienceDaily
(Sep. 5, 2008) — New research from the University of
Cincinnati (UC) implicates the primary chemical used to produce
hard plastics—bisphenol A (BPA)—as a risk factor
for metabolic syndrome and its consequences...In a laboratory
study, using fresh human fat tissues, the UC team found that
BPA suppresses a key hormone, adiponectin, which is responsible
for regulating insulin sensitivity in the body and puts people
at a substantially higher risk for metabolic syndrome.Metabolic
syndrome is a combination of risk factors that
include lower responsiveness to insulin and higher blood levels
of sugar and lipids. According to the American Heart Association,
about 25 percent of Americans have metabolic syndrome. Left
untreated, the disorder can lead to life-threatening health
problems such as coronary artery disease, stroke and type
2 diabetes.Nira Ben-Jonathan, PhD, and her team are the first
to report scientific evidence on the health effects of BPA
at environmentally relevant doses equal to "average"
human exposure. Previous studies have primarily focused on
animal studies and high doses of BPA.They report their findings
in the Aug. 14, 2008, online edition of the journal Environmental
Health Perspectives. This scientific data comes just before
a key Federal Drug Administration meeting about the safety
of the chemical in consumer products scheduled for Sept. 16,
2008.http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/09/080904151629.htm

3."This
effect of BPA on weight is critical because alterations in
metabolism, are frequently associated with reproductive dysfunction.
Collectively, the results of this and our prior study indicate
that the impact of neonatal BPA exposure within the female
rat hypothalamus is region specific
and support the hypothesis that developmental BPA exposure
may adversely affect reproductive development in females."

20696184 (Webmaster note: Remember
that the immune system is regulated by the hypo cretin system.
ie hypothalamus.see
how the immune system works)
4."These
results indicate that BPA has a powerful effect on specific
portions of the nNOS-immunoreactive system (immune
system) belonging to the accessory olfactory system
(sense of smell) that are particularly
important for the control of sexual behaviour. In addition,
they confirm that perinatal exposure (prenatal)
to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, in particular to BPA, may
have a high impact on the organisation of specific neural
pathways that can later affect complex behaviours and functions."
PMID:
20561153 (Webmaster note: in other
words this report indicates prenatal exposure to BPA causes
deviations in sexual behavior, and messes up our immune system.
Remember that the immune system is regulated by the hypo cretin
system.)
