James Gallagher of BBC Radio reports in April 2018 that ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œmore than half your body is not human.ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ Scientists find human cells account for only 43% of bodyÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥™s cell count. Remaining count consists of microscopic colonies such as bacteria, fungi and viruses.
Understanding underlying gut microbiota offers insight into diseases ranging from allergies to ParkinsonÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥™s. In our oxygen-deprived bowels resides the bodyÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥™s greatest concentration of microbial life. Health depends on diet and good bacteria in our gut.
Research proclaims that diquat kills good gut bacteria and damages organs in multiple ways. Diquat usage ramps up as herbicides of glyphosate and paraquat drop. UK, EU, China and other countries ban diquat over health risks. U.S. EPA resists ban.
Recently, U.S. deploys diquat herbicide in vineyards and orchards. In July, Tom Perkins announces, ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œWeedkiller ingredient widely used in US can damage organs and gut bacteria, research shows.ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ Diquat replaces glyphosate in weedkiller products. Data show diquat significantly more toxic than glyphosate.
Nathan Donley notes, ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œFrom a human health perspective, this stuff (diquat) is quite a bit nastier than glyphosate so weÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥™re seeing a regrettable substitution, and the ineffective regulatory structure is allowing it.ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ Some link diquat a neurotoxin and carcinogen to ParkinsonÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥™s disease.
Inability to adequately safeguard our food supply with regulatory law reminds me of Rachel CarsonÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥™s ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œSilent Spring.ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥ Carson observes therein, ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥œIf the Bill of Rights contains no guarantee that a citizen shall be secure against lethal poisons distributed either by private individuals or by public officials, it is surely only because our forefathers, despite their considerable wisdom and foresight, could conceive of no such problem.ÃÛÁÄÖ±²¥
