Man (homo sapiens) has been on this planet for many millions of years. And up until just the last few thousand years man has survived by walking and eating whatever he could find, plants and animals. And basically man lived in a confined area, not venturng far until the last ten thousand years. So now, we eat mainly processed food, are completely surrounded by chemicals and compounds that for millions of years didn't exist. We are consuming and breathing countless molecules that for the vast majority of our existence didn't exist. Is it any wonder why we have so many different diseases?
Case in point, I just found out recently I have numerous plant and food allergies. So I was put on a new diet. Today I bought some grape juice. I thought I read the label carefully but when I drank a glass I started sneezing immediately. I missed the fact that it contained nutrasweet. I'm allergic to it!
Bottom line is we are screwing ourselves up. A new theory about one of the causes of breast cancer is that there's a higher incidence in urban areas because there's a higher concentration of tiny pieces of vehicle tires (latex) being breathed in which is causing the cancer.
We've created a cesspool of chemicals that are completely foreign to our bodies. Sad....
