[Scientists
in Europe have discovered that increasing numbers of complex drugs - including
heart
medication, anti-depressants, anti-epileptics,
anti-cancer chemicals, cholesterol-lowering medicines,
sex hormones, antibiotics, hormone replacement,
aspirin, vitamins and ibuprofen – are surviving the human
digestive system, passing through sewage works and
entering rivers and the sea.
Dr
Thomas Ternes, of Germany's Institute for Water Research, carried out sampling
at one sewage
works outfall and found 36 different drugs, plus
five other compounds that had been metabolised from
them before they left the patient.
Scientists
are blaming the drug pollution for some of the widespread and until now
unexplained
mass deaths of tiny aquatic organisms. Some drugs,
especially anti-depressants, have also been found to
alter sperm levels and spawning patterns in aquatic
life. Musks and chemicals used in perfumes, and
compounds from suntan lotion, have been found to
have accumulated in fish.]
["Serotonin, for example, has been used to induce spawning in molluscs. Many anti-depressants which are ending up in rivers are designed to interfere with serotonin production in humans and may affect spawning," he said.]

abstract: Sea Sickness.(pollution, algae blooms, and climate change affect
coral reefs and other marine organisms)
Nor is bleaching the only threat to
corals. Increasingly, Cervino points out, these colonies are also
exhibiting
infections, tumors, and "obscure" lesions. "We've been
going to photos of corals from as far back
as the
1930s," he says, and find no sign of many of these diseases.
Over the past 15 years, for instance, "there has been
a very striking increase in the frequency and
extent of
harmful algal blooms," notes JoAnn M. Burkholder, an aquatic
botanist at North Carolina State
University in
Raleigh.
HEED's data now link many of
these blooms of poison-producing algae to pollution (SN: 9/27/97,
p. 202) and a widespread warming
of coastal and shallow waters.
Moreover, Burkholder observes, HEED's
data suggest that the
ecological impacts of these blooms are more pervasive than most biologists had
realized. Until recently,
scientists typically investigated marine disease outbreaks as isolated
incidents. The
idea that some might be
linked struck Epstein when he began ruminating about a host of events in 1987.

When Water Kills

The dangerous consequences of factory farming are being felt all across the country
BY ANDREW NIKIFORUK
Long
after the dead have been buried in Walkerton, Ont., rural Canadians who rely on
groundwater will continue to feel and
smell the impact of a largely
unreported revolution: the growth of
factory farms. This new industry, or what governments call
"intensive livestock operations," has unsettled
farm communities from New
Brunswick to Alberta. Unlike the family enterprises of old, which proudly
cared for 20 pigs or
60 cattle, these new facilities operate on an entirely
different and largely unregulated
scale.
In addition, the
world's key pork producers, Taiwan and Holland, recently pushed
production into
the danger zone,
causing severe water pollution
and animal disease outbreaks. But their environmental
disasters have had an effect
here: hog barns managed by Europeans or funded by Asian investors are
popping up all over
the country.

Canola and the myelin sheath
Some speculate on the actual or potential effects of
ELF and RF/MW radiation such as microwaves, wireless cell phones and computers.
There seems to be studies that show these things to be detrimental to the
neurological system causing accelerated aging (enhanced cell death and cancer),
moods,
depression,
suicide, anger, rage and violence. I do not have an opinion on microwaves but
these studies
seem
to show something could be happening to people that have enough money, need,
and / or the
knowledge
to use cell phones.
It
would seem that these people could also be knowledgeable enough to be health
conscious, if
they
are health conscious and use Canola Oil which is a known to cause neurological
problems - it strips the myelin sheath off of the (neuron's) axon. Brain cells
are known as axons, and stripping the myelin
sheath
off of them causes them to short circuit as well as the potential of other
problems. Other items
that
can cause problems or cancer are MSG, Bovine Growth Hormone, food colorings and
sugar. Top

Canola is a name that recently appeared in the
marketplace and is apparently derived from
Canadian-oil. Canola
oil is actually produced from the rape seed plant. Rape (Brassica napus),
a member
of the mustard family, is
listed in the Encyclopedia Britannica as a poisonous plant with toxic effects
which
include pulmonary emphysema,
respiratory distress, anemia, constipation, irritability and blindness in
cattle.
According to John Thomas, author of Young Again: How to Reverse the Aging
Process, The name
canola disguised the
introduction of rape oil to
America.

Between genetic to cell, contagious
diseases do they rewrite the DNA, is that why we “can” develop and immunity?
Drugs such as Ritalin are not
effective as a band aid, they can cover up the symptoms but the damage is still
being done, and some time the drugs themselves add to the damage. Ref: it
seems as if children that were already on drugs did the school shootings in
America.
All chemicals are
systematic and are (drank) uptaken by the plant and / or absorbed by the plant
stomata, washing will not remove them. Put a stalk of celery in a glass
of red food dye and a few dyes latter you will see the dye as it travel up the
celery by osmosis.
GM plants
“seem “ to need more chemicals; some of these crops are developed to need more
chemicals.

more to break down, some break down in to forms that are even deadlier than the

(New 23Oct 98) Monsanto
is the company that makes Aspartame, Bovine Growth Hormone, Terminator Seed Technology,
Roundup, and assorted other goodies that are being proven detrimental to the
health of the family.
Sugar has been
shown to be addictive and a hazard to your health(1). It has been linked to
lung disease when used to cure tobacco. Think of burnt sugar, now think of
burning it in a cigarette. But what of cigarette manufacturers, wonder of
some of them are ready to make marijuana cigarettes - considering California's
newest legislation. What are the alternatives? It is not Aspartame or artificial
sweeteners, the ones currently on the market have been shown to CAUSE things
like Diabetes, heart attack to hyperactivity and death. So what is the
alternative? Macrobiotic Cooking(2) and the cookbooks that they have put out
can be a guideline. If anyone has other ideas, or urls please send them to me!
Will be putting a editorial on sugar in this site within the next several
weeks. In the Middle Ages refined sugar was originally handled by apothecary
shops as a dangerous drug, it was not until the Age of Enlightenment that it
started being used. It is one of the causes of degenerative disease, as well as
mental and emotional disorders. Bottom line - do we label ADD, ADHD as genetic
because we refuse to stop using things that are detrimental to our health or do
we look for the answers? One more help - some vitamins have a bad bases, check
out info on the web, I suggest you look through the links - I use NATURAL and
only the natural food supplements. These are different in the ways that they
are made. That means that even though the merger between Monsanto and American
Home Products (makers of Centrum) fell through, "I" think that in
some ways they are still treading the same path.

10) Quotes
"When life gives you lemons, Make Lemonade"
"It is better to be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all
doubt" Abe Lincoln
"Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live
forever." -Gandhi
--Continued
from Top--
The answers seem as varied as the people that give
them. Yet, I have found that there is a definite link between
hyperactivity and chemical reactions. One of these is described in Sweet
Poison, -need a link to formaldehyde in some
furniture for this next area-.
Could this mean that if we use a type of elimination technique to see what
items might be affecting ourselves and our children, and while we try that see
if the elimination technique (of chemicals) has any effect on the amount of
medicine they require (if any) that we may be in for a surprise. Could
this have started during the time that many people were trying to imply that
much of what is / has happened to us is strictly genetic?
There are some children and
adults that never seem to have "obvious" allergies or reactions to
the things they eat. Still I know of no one that will not have a reaction
to Ammonia if they are around it long enough, and anyone that has a swimming
pool know that what acid can do. Up till now medical professionals seem
to have believed that the blood / brain barrier would protect our brains from
what happens to our bodies, research has shown this is not true. If there
can be varied reactions and reaction times to something as common as ammonia,
what of some of the other items in our environment?
ADD - ADHD - GIFTED = learning
styles have been around for ages. What I take exception to is people
saying that everyone should be a carbon copy "peer group" and that if
the child or person does not get along where they are that they will not get
along anywhere else. That they are locked in some kind of cage for
life. If the effects of Ritalin are suppose to be different for adults
and children, then this implys that there is change. . .(New 02 Nov 98)
Watch out for Aspartame in
toothpaste, and Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and Sodium Laurath Sulfate in shampoo,
make sure they are from natural sources.
Then -- "Pyrethroid poisoning be made available to the general public as a
matter of urgency. The fact that these compounds are being used as a head lice
treatment for children is appalling." There are
links on this page where you are able to research these chemicals.(New 25Oct 98)
This still is
basically a rough draft. I am a student, that has a personal interest in
the use and abuse of drugs. Because of that personal interest, the only
way that I can justify the time spent putting this page together is to use it
as a reference on my scholarship applications. There are more links that
will be added in the future - they are somewhere in my bookmark file(s), these
are detailed as "for future" next to where they will be placed.
