Chemicals in organophosphate pesticides cause brain damage: Study
Prenatal exposure to organophosphate pesticides, a kind of pesticide considered toxic to humans, has been linked to impaired cognition and significant changes in the brain. In a major breakthrough, scientists from the University of California, Berkeley (UCB) and Stanford University found that teenagers exposed in utero to organophosphate pesticides demonstrated altered brain activities during tasks that required executive […]

Indoor air pollution may contribute to respiratory disease and heart disease, warn researchers
The term “air pollution” often conjures up images of industrial factories, smoke-belching cars and roaring bush fires. But the air inside our homes can also become just as polluted, albeit in a deadlier sense. Experts from the Global Healing Center maintain that indoor air pollution poses a much bigger problem because of its silent and often undetectable […]

Deadly pesticides STILL in use: Neonics are killing bees and birds, warn researchers
Migration is important in the life of birds. It lets them find good food, a good mate and a good nesting site. Should migration be stalled, birds risk missing all of these benefits that, more often than not, could mean life or death. In a recent breakthrough, researchers from the University of Saskatchewan (USask) in Canada found […]

Prolonged exposure to air pollution triggers inflammation, appearance of cancer-related genes
Prolonged exposure to air pollution can trigger inflammation and the appearance of cancer-related genes, according to a recent study published in Scientific Reports. In the report, a team of researchers from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) looked at how toxic metals found in coarse particulate matter trigger molecular events that precede inflammation and […]

Dolphins in the English Channel have high levels of mercury in their skin AND blubber: Chemicals have been poisoning dolphins for decades, warn scientists
Bottlenose dolphins might not be an endangered species, but these charming marine mammals do face certain threats, such as commercial fishing and habitat destruction. Nonetheless, scientists find that neither of these is as serious nor as pressing as another emerging threat: chemical poisoning. In a major breakthrough, scientists from the University of Liege (ULiege) in Belgium and […]

EFSA independent analysis reveals aspartame is a “neurotoxic additive”
Despite glaring health risks linked to aspartame, a chemical ingredient used in processed foods and drinks, authorities still consider the infamous sugar substitute safe for human consumption. But a pair of scientists from the University of Sussex in the U.K. sounded the alarm on unreliable studies declaring aspartame safe. In particular, the duo blasted a risk assessment […]

REPORT: Bottled water TEEMING with microplastics
Plastic contamination is rampant in bottled water. This was the disturbing conclusion of a recent study, published in Frontiers in Chemistry, that analyzed samples from 259 bottles of water sold across the globe. Researchers from the State University of New York at Fredonia found that 93 percent of the samples contained small, often microscopic, particles of plastic called microplastics. The team classified […]
