Top 10 Most TOXIC Things For Your Body & How To Avoid Them

We are being bombarded with toxic ingredients every day, and I am not trying to be extreme here. From the foods we eat, to the creams and sprays we put on our bodies, many of them have ingredients that are just not good for us.

The article by Dr. Jennifer Sass for the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) highlights two new research papers that unveil concerning human health risks associated with neonicotinoid pesticides, or "neonics." Research Findings: The first paper discusses human poisonings with neonics, revealing that these pesticides are frequently associated with human health incidents, including severe cases like paralysis and death. It was observed that neonics are often detected in food, water supplies, and even breast milk, suggesting widespread human exposure. The study emphasizes that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has not adequately acted on these risks. The second paper focuses on the developmental neurotoxicity of neonics, linking exposure to these chemicals with potential adverse effects on brain development in mammals. It points out that the EPA has not included these findings in its regulatory assessments, which could lead to underestimating the risks neonics pose to human health. Neonics are described as systemic neurotoxic insecticides that mimic nicotine, affecting the nervous system of insects, leading to paralysis and death. However, they also have significant environmental persistence and can harm beneficial insects like bees. There are concerns about neonics potentially causing developmental issues, including neurodevelopmental effects like autism spectrum disorder, memory loss, and tremors. The systemic nature of neonics means that their residues can be found within produce, not just on the surface, increasing the risk of human exposure through diet. The EPA has been criticized for not adequately addressing these risks in their assessments. There's a call for more stringent regulation or even cancellation of neonics due to their potential harm to both environment and human health. The research suggests that neonics might not have a "safe" exposure level, particularly during critical developmental stages, echoing concerns similar to those about other neurotoxins like lead or mercury. It is urgent a reevaluation of neonics' use and regulation based on emerging health risk data.

At some point "fanfic can be as good as professional writing" became "fanfic should be as good as professional writing" and that's caused major damage to fandom spaces.

i think the worst thing in the world is seeing two characters with something weird as hell going on between them and you think to urself "wow i love the weird as hell thing these characters have going on between them" and you open archiveofourown.org and find out everyone else thinks they would actually be in a very normal romantic relationship
