Hormone Disrupting Chemicals

Many common pollutants from chemicals sprayed in industrial agriculture to tire tread erosion microplastics to artificial dye or preservative chemicals added to processed junk foods, hormone disrupting effects are even more prevalent because of artificial light that causes stimulation of the SCN in the brain & eyes that suppresses the release of melatonin & increases blood concentrations of cortisol & histamine.

Thoughtless, Inconsiderate, Selfish, Vain, Glib Ignorant Industrialization & Fake Progress
You can't take the money with you when you die and God does not care about human titles! 

PFAS in water for example, applied to non-stick cookware as the fluorinated polymers are heat resistant and do not easily bond or react with anything, except they are toxic to the human body. Tests at more than 700 locations in the USA showed that many public water sources that provide tap water are contaminated with PFAS, many with high concentrations of of PFAS. Its known as a forever chemical because of how it resists breaking down and widely used in carpeting & cosmetics, packaging & other products. Areas near manufacturing plants that use PFAS are where the worse tap water PFAS pollutant levels measured. 

Think Teflon or Goretex // fine in non-edible products, but there is a huge long term cost of making these goods without intelligently controlling the PFAS application to stop air & water pollutant emissions of the forever chemicals, because its costs more to filter the air and waste water or treat both to remove PFAS before discharging such into environments where other people live. The EPA says there are thousands of different PFAS, many of which are linked to childhood developmental delays, 10 points of IQ loss, certain types of cancer of the prostate, testicles and kidneys. PFAS weaking the immune system and act as hormone disruptors in the body, even able to raise cholesterol and increase obesity. 

Sound pollution similar disturbances caused sleep interruptions that cause hormonal imbalances to form, like reduced production of testosterone, progesterone, estrogen & more. Lound vehicle exhaust systems, barking dogs, crying babies, loud music, horns, trains, airplanes, sources of noise outside your personal control that wake you up & cause degradation of your sleep health. 

By stealing your rest and peace, this effectively like knocking the body out of balance in ways related to diseases that form over time from the imbalances. Many mental disorders for example are because of low dopamine, low serotonin, or low norepinephrine levels, or deficits in neurotransmitters. 

Think pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, endocrine disruptors, hormone disruptors, toxic dangerous chemicals, fumes from combustion, fumes from coal power plants, fumes from metal smelters, industrial air pollutants emitted from aircraft jet engine turbines. 

What you look like tells other people almost nothing about your values, ethics, morals, character, or personality or personal attributes, virtues or vices. What a book looks like tells you nothing about the story. A home is what you make of the house with your family, even if its just you and the wall and furniture and appliances. Are you an extreme cheapskate like me? 

Why overpay? Sale prices are awesome cause you get the same for less money. I had to pay $6.40/ gal for ethanol free 92 octane premium fuel to fill our 2001 Audi A4 2.8 Quattro compact sedan that I am able to get 45 MPG out of with gentle hypermiling that I learned about in the early 2000's from Wayne Gerdes on Autoblog/ Green website articles about Hypermiling to radically improve vehicle fuel economy. Thank God too, since it only cost $32.68 to go 145 miles even at those stupid high gas prices at The Grange. 

I exclusively fuel my vehicles with E0 or Ethanol Free fuel, if they are from Pre-2008. Vehicles after 2008 sold in the USA were designed with gaskets that can withstand up to E15 without damage to the polymers, seals & gaskets important in the fuel tank, fuel lines, fuel filter, fuel injectors & fuel pump. My daily driver a 19 used Nissan LEAF SV that has more than 160 mi of range because I get more than 5 mi / kWh gentle hypermiling with a few high speed acceleration busts for enjoyment when starting from a stop, since electric vehicles accelerate instantly with face bending performance :) 

I leave the LEAF in ECO mode & use B when going down longer hill descents in the topographically variable or hilly locations nearby in the suburbs just east of Seattle, Washington, USA / or Tiger, Squawk, & Cougar moutains respectively. 

Because I am clean & articular & observant, some people have called me a Queen in am insulting & derogatory way to insult me, suggesting that I am a girly prissy man, when this is not true. Perhaps some gay people, some transgender & some bisexual people, have specific endocrine, neurotransmitter, or hormonal differences that influence their alternative sexual and gender preferences. 

Many straight people are similarly affected by hormone disruption that causes dietary compulsions that cause them to eat way too much sugar for long periods until they develop pre-diabetes or what is now widely known as Type 3 Diabetes, a pre-condition or precursor of the more dangerous Type 2 diabetes or dietary obesity late onset insulin resistance and or elevated HbA1c or higher than normal fasting blood glucose levels, or higher blood glucose peaks after eating a meal.

Think SAD or standard American diet and how many of the alternative sexuality people come from industrialized countries with Western Dietary Diseases of Civilization dietary imbalances & pervasive persistent pollutants like microplastics. 

Garbage In = Garbage Out || An Axiom in computer programming

This also true of what we eat and drink as people. What you put into your mouth strongly affects your health, disease risks, disease pathology. 

Cancerous cells love high blood glucose levels since the elevated glucose fuels the proliferation of cancer cells that metastasize and spread into other tissues. Eating sugary, starchy, carbohydrate rich foods with high glycemic index like white flour stripped of the fats & fibers present in the whole wheat, or sugars which are added to foods where the fat & fiber was removed, so the manufactures of foods could make processed junk foods more addictive, more palatable, tastier, or better tasting. 

Sugar is like the cocaine of food, look at powdered sugar & think of what it does to your body when eaten. Think about what happens to sugars when you eat them. Did you know that starches and carbohydrates are just polymerized sugars that quickly break down back into sugars when you eat bread, rice, pasta, or drink soda, pop or fruit juice. 

Insulin, Blood Glucose

INSULIN

Disease of Civilization are from Sugars that enter the bloodstream because of excess carb consumption. Before the widespread commercialization of insulin for people with Type 1 diabetes like my lovely wife Meg, doctors back then prescribed an ultra low carb diet similar to the now popular interval fasting + ketogenic diets or the increasingly popular One Meal Per Day model of 22 hours fasting daily :) 

Water fasting for 2-7 days now increasing in popularity to help many people suffering from metabolic syndrome disease from eating too much, too often, of the wrong foods, in huge servings, combined with sitting around & not moving enough, causing blood to pool up in their legs which cause edema while also increasing the risks of stroke, embolism, clotting & worse, progressive multifocal damage to the capillaries that cause foot ulcers, retinopathy in the fovea of the retina of the eye that caused blindness, neuropathy that causes a loss of vision, loss of feeling in the hands & feet, causing trips and falls that rob people of their mobility. 

I was crying my eyes out while writing this thinking about how people are harmed because of confusion, such they hurt themselves and people they love with foods they do not understand, with a diet they do not understand, with a lack of activity they do not understand and chronic sleep deprivation that disrupts hormone production. Its not just all the chemical toxins and pollutants, but many other lifestyle factors sickening people and probably in part also affecting gender & sexual preferences. After all, what causes people to feel sexual desires on a biochemical level and what do hormone disruptors due to these processes and cell signaling cascades & biochemical feedback mechanisms?
