Risks of cancer causing chemicals

Eat for the health of it.

It is sad that our country has become a dumping ground for chemicals. What doesn't have chemicals in it? Sadly that we have become so accustomed to all the new technologies and modern conveiences that we do not think of how many chemicals came along with the package. With all the environmental toxins, the careless handling of industrial products, it has saturated our water supply and the very air that we breathe.

Many of these toxins are things that you cannot see, taste, feel or smell. The worst part of it is that we do not realize that we are affected until it is too late and we find out that we have cancer or our lungs are ruined and even skin cancer that may have been boiling underneath, coming from inside the body and all of a sudden it's there and it's too late.

It's hard to pinpoint a specific source of your illness because you could have any illness and the cause could be from a toxin that you have been breathing for years.You could have a chronic fatigue syndrome from chemical sensitivities, neurological problems and immune system disorders etc. It's no wonder when you see these statistics.

Some 77,000 chemicals are produced in America.
Over 3,000 chemicals are in our food supply.
More than 10,000 chemical solvents, emulsifiers and preservatives are used in our food processing.
And 1,000 new chemicals are introduced each year.

These chemicals end up being absorbed into our ground water, rivers, streams, lakes and oceans. It is spewed into the air we breathe, and added to our food supply. according to the British Journal of Medicine, 75% of all cancers are caused from exposure to these chemicals. According to Columbia University School of Health estimated that 95% of cancer is caused by diet and environmental toxicity.

This doesn't surprise me one bit when you consider that we have between 400 and 800 chemicals stored in our bodies. The effects from these chemicals can cause:

Parkinson's Disease, Alzheimer's, depression, attention deficit disorder, schizophrenia, Cancer, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalance, enzyme disfunction, altered metabolism, reproductive disorders, fatigue, headaches, obesity, muscle soreness, vision problems, immune system disorder, allergies, asthma, chronic infection, and less ability to handle stress. And this is only touching the surface of what these chemicals can do to people.

Laughter is healthy: The snotty receptionist:
An older gentleman had an appointment with a urologist who happened to share the office with several other doctors. The waiting room was filled with patients.
As he approached the receptionist desk he noticed that the receptionist was a loud and unfriendly person.

He gave her his name.

In a very loud voice, the receptionist said, "Yes, I have your name here, you want to see the doctor about your impotence problem, right?

This turned every head in the room. Embarrassing the poor man.

He recovered very quickly and stated to her in return, "No, I've come to inquire about a sex change operation, but I do not want the same one that did yours."

Don't mess with old folks!
