Whose Medicine Am I Taking?

Hi i found some really cool article about wha drugs and how they they are production is

affecting our environment

Millions of steroids, anti-depressants, antibiotics, sex hormones, drugs for cancer and heart

disease and other drugs Americans swallow every day end up in our sewage, reappear in our

drinking water and are consumed again …not, of course, by those for whom they were

intended.

More recently, an investigative team from the Associated Press (AP) surveyed the water

source for 50 major cities in the U.S. as well as the water source for 52 smaller

communities. The study found up to 56 drug chemicals in the drinking water in some areas

and the widespread presence of pharmaceuticals in the drinking water of more than 41

million Americans.

The Disappearing Male

"We are conducting a vast toxicological experiment in which our children and our children's children are the experimental subjects." Dr. Herbert Needleman

/The Disappearing Male/ is about one of the most important, and least publicized, issues facing the human species: the toxic threat to the male reproductive system.

The last few decades have seen steady and dramatic increases in the incidence of boys and young men suffering from genital deformities, low sperm count, sperm abnormalities and testicular cancer. baby Some researchers say that declining male fertility rates could be the first sign of extinction.

At the same time, boys are now far more at risk of suffering from ADHD, autism, Tourette's syndrome, cerebral palsy, and dyslexia.

/The Disappearing Male/ takes a close and disturbing look at what many doctors and researchers now suspect are responsible for many of these problems: a class of common chemicals that are ubiquitous in our world.

Found in everything from shampoo, sunglasses, meat and dairy products, carpet, cosmetics and baby bottles, they are called "hormone mimicking" or "endocrine disrupting" chemicals and they may be starting to damage the most basic building blocks of human development.

In our modern society the average college male has half the sperm count of his father at that age and 85% of those sperm are abnormal.

Male birth rates are declining in industrialized countries throughout the world.

In the under-developed countries where these chemicals in the environment are far less prevalent, male birth rates are normal. The dominant religion in the under-developed world is Islam. The implications of this are profound.
