Cancer, Alzheimer’s and infertility ‘strongly’ linked to toxic chemicals in food and water by major study
Toxic chemicals in our air are strongly linked to serious health problems such as environmental problems and cancer, obesity, dementia, infertility and ADHD.
A new study, which defines toxicity as the ı the least threat of humanity, warned that “people’s contamination is endemic” and that the risks of planetary and human health on the impact of pesticide use on cancer rates are widely rushed to smoke.
More than 3,600 synthetic chemicals from food contact materials such as packaging and insect remedies are found in the world -wide human body, and 80 in its report are afraid of being particularly dangerous.
Chemicals known as Perfloroalkil and polyfluoroalkil substances (PFA) were found in almost everyone who was tested, 14 percent of European young people had high blood levels to pose serious health risks.
Shocking findings include the use of pesticide and leukemia, non -Hodgkin lymphoma and bladder, colon and liver cancer, prenatal pesticide exposure increases childhood leukemia and lymphoma probability more than 50 percent.
Evidence showing that synthetic chemicals contributed to a global decrease in the sperm number of people has also been found – for example, with low levels of low levels of some PFA levels, have found less than half of the normal number of sperm.
In the midst of an increase in increasing cancer rates, fertility and chronic diseases, the team behind the report warns that the current international approach to manage synthetic chemicals is “insufficient and misunderstood için for calling a more coordinated action and better standardization to protect people and planets in the world.
The ‘invisible tsunami’ report was created by the Science Team of the Deep Science Initiatives’ with the Grantham Foundation of the Environment and after an eight -month investigation of the analysis of refereed scientific articles.
According to the researchers, the industrial economy has created more than 100 million chemicals, and 350,000 of 350,000 after the 1950s have increased by 50 times since the 1950s. They explained that toxic chemical exposure through air, food and water is caused by fossil carbon raw materials, which are existing carbon -containing components from fossil fuels.
The team warned that “a secure planetary limit was violated, ında he said, which a group of toxic chemicals, which have been in the vicinity for a long time, have grown so greatly. For example, they said that PFAs “pollute the whole planet”, rain water levels often exceed the limits of safe drinking water and the chemicals found in the blood of almost the entire population.
Non -surprising pollution is equally widespread, the World Health Organization (WHO) data are data showing that almost the entire global population (99 percent) exceeds the guidance limits of the agency and breathing at high levels of pollutants.
The team said that the report summarizes the “strong” causal and correlation connections between cancer, obesity, alzheimer’s, pregnancy complications, ADHD, fertility problems, heart conditions and respiratory disorders.
Beyond human health, he warned that toxic chemicals cause “significant and widespread” damage in ecological systems and affect the biological diversity and the sensitive balance of natural environments.
“This research, which blends peer-reviewed studies, shows that humanity has been exposed to chemicals through food, air and water,” Deep Science Ventures Climate Director Dr Adam Tomassi-Russell.
“The scale of the problem seems widespread, and research shows that a basic change is needed just as we approach our understanding, financing and innovation efforts to solve this problem.”
Jeremy Grantham, the founding partner and president of the Grantham Foundation of the Environment, added: “Toxicity is the least threat to humanity.”
