Parkinson’s Disease and Brain Tumors Linked to Pesticide Exposure

Pesticides are nerve toxins, many of which were originally developed by the Germans in WWI and WWII for use as chemical weapons.  Following these wars the Rockefellers concocted the “Green Revolution,” whereby crop yields were increased by poisoning insects with these biological weapons.  Insects have developed resistance, leading to higher doses and other more toxic chemicals being applied to crops, residues of which are consumed regularly and are a likely cause of health decline.

Several new studies show that those who come in contact with the chemical spraying, such as residents of rural communities or those using the chemicals for home garden activities are under increased risk for serious neurologic disease as they grow older.  The risk for Parkinson’s increases 39%.  We know that a genetic risk is involved with Parkinson’s, thus those with a family history should pay careful attention as their underlying neurologic weakness is not able to tolerate pesticide exposure very well.  Another study shows an increase risk for brain tumors as a result of pesticide exposure.

The Green Revolution has damaged the quality of our farmland, depleted vital minerals required for health, contributes to the toxic burden at the source of cardiovascular disease and cancer, and direct exposure sets the stage for serious neurologic disease. 

These are the very same chemicals the EPA and FDA have approved as safe for consumption over the course of a lifetime.  Eat organic.  Quit buying chemically tainted food.
