The EPA has approved about a dozen fungicides for use post-harvest or in conjunction with wax. Of them, cap tan and folpet are listed by EPA as probable human carcinogens, and benomyl is listed as a possible human carcinogen. Unfortunately, waxes can seal pesticides into food, and they can't be washed off.

He reports that the amount of ETU in chemically treated vegetables is fifty times greater than in the same vegetables served raw.18 The implications of this, with the enormous amounts of chemically treated foods we cook and consume, are worth considering.

See book keywords and concepts |  The herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides commonly found in our foods contain some of the most powerful thyroid-hormone suppressors known. Some, like the carbamates, are actually used for this very purpose in animals, to make them put on weight faster, and in humans, as common medications to suppress an overactive thyroid. The extensive usage of pesticides on our fields means that in many agricultural regions, these thyroid-damaging chemicals are also seeping into our water supply. |

See book keywords and concepts |  This poison is found in our soil, water, and food supply, as well as in sewage sludge, fungicides, and pesticides. Some grains and seeds are treated with methyl mercury chlorine bleaches, which seep into the food supply. Because methyl mercury contaminates our waters, large amounts are found in fish, particularly larger ones that are farther up in the food chain. An estimated one-third (or possibly more) of America's lakes and one-fourth of its rivers now contain fish that may be contaminated with mercury. |

See book keywords and concepts | | How to Reduce Your Exposure
Here are some recommended methods of reducing exposure to pesticides as well as tips on removing the surface pesticide residues, waxes, fungicides, and fertilizers from produce:
1. Buy organic produce. In the context of food and farming, the term organic is used to imply that the produce was grown without the aid of synthetic chemicals, including pesticides and fertilizers. Although less than 3 percent of the total produce grown in the United States is grown without the aid of pesticides, organic produce is widely available.
2. | | To remove surface pesticide residues, waxes, fungicides, and fertilizers, soak the produce in a mild solution of additive-free soap, such as Ivory or pure castile soap from the health food store, and then rinse off. An even better solution is to use Fit®, a commercially available produce wash (see www.texfit.com for more information).
4. Simply peel off the skin or remove the outer layer of leaves. The downside of this is that many of the nutritional benefits are concentrated in the skin and outer layers. | | Organically grown grapes have been found to produce much higher amounts of resveratrol than conventionally grown grapes, which are already protected by treatment with man-made fungicides.
• Safeguard your children's health. Reports from the Natural Resources Defense Council (1989) and the Environmental Working Group (1998) found that millions of American children are exposed to levels of pesticides through their food that surpass limits considered safe. Some of these pesticides are known neurotoxins with the potential to harm a developing brain and nervous system. | | If picking wild dandelion greens from lawns or meadows, be sure the area has not been treated with weed killer or fungicides and that it is not located close to a heavily traveled road, where it will be exposed to pollutants from automobile exhaust.
Eggplant
Eggplant (Solarium melongena) belongs to the nightshade plant family (Solanaceae) along with the tomato and potato. In fact, eggplants grow in a manner much like tomatoes, hanging from the vines of a plant that grows several feet in height. | | Although the waxes themselves likely pose little health risk, powerful pesticides or fungicides are frequently added to them. Since the waxes cannot be washed off with water, the fungicide or pesticide becomes cemented to the produce. To remove it, soak parsnips in a mild solution of additive-free soap, such as Ivory or pure castile soap from a health food store, or use one of the biodegradable fruit and vegetable cleansers now available, such as Fit (for more information, go to www.tryfit.com). |

See book keywords and concepts | | Pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, fumi-gants, and fertilizers containing these metals and other toxic substances seep into our soil and food. Food additives, preservatives, and artificial coloring pervade the products in our supermarkets. Fruits and vegetables are sprayed, treated with ripening agents, and waxed to make them appear more appetizing. Toxic chemicals and hazardous waste have contaminated our air and water.
Indoor pollution is an especially serious issue. Studies conducted by the U.S. |

The functioning ability of the adrenal glands can be impaired as a result of the extensive use of cortisone therapy for nonendocrine diseases, such as arthritis and asthma. The long-term use of cortisone drugs often causes the adrenal gland to shrink in size.
Unless otherwise specified, the dosages recommended in this section are for adults. |

See book keywords and concepts | | These processed foods are chemicalized with preservatives, pesticides, fungicides, sweeteners, artificial colors, sulfites, nitrites, and similar chemicals. Tamasic foods create a veil of ignorance and an energy of sloth and decadence. All the fast foods that are so popular today fall into the tamasic category, as does alcohol, which is a fermented, decomposed food, and all other drugs. Any flesh foods that are not freshly killed are considered tamasic; this includes most meat we find in the supermarket. Only freshly killed wild game and fish are considered rajasic. |

See book keywords and concepts | | The plant outer leaves may have as much as 31 times more than the inner parts of insecticides, herbicides, rodenticides, waxes sometimes blended with fungicides; from 1950 to 1983 pesticide production increasedfrom200,000pounds to2.7billionpounds. Pesticides are indiscriminate, kill 1% of the bad bugs along with neutral and beneficial species. Insect resistance has increased pesticide use 11 times inthe last30years. |

See book keywords and concepts |  This is especially a problem where hydroelectric plants have stagnated the waters, and where mercurial fungicides drain into lakes and streams near farmland.
Seafood is periodically checked for methylmercury levels and warnings are released to the public when concentrations exceed safe levels. The problem lies in the fact that we do not know the full effect of chronic absorption of even small concentrations of methylmercury.
Mad as a Hatter
Most of us have heard this expression, but few people are aware of its tragic source. | | Carbamates are widely used as herbicides, pesticides, and fungicides. Like organophosphates, they are easily absorbed through the skin, producing rapid toxicity. Exposure can cause acute memory loss, vertigo, numbness in the hands and feet, increased sensitivity to light, fatigue, and visual impairment that can last over a year. In some instances, these symptoms are permanent.
Chlorinated cyclodienes are the most highly toxic of any of the organochlorine pesticides. These include chlordane, heptachlor, aldrin, endrin, and endosulfan. | | Farm raised fish contain very little N-3 oils and offer little other than significant amounts of dioxin, mercury, pesticides, and fungicides. The vast majority of salmon, even if labeled wild, has have been shown to be farm raised and therefore low in these healthy oils.
One question I am frequently asked is whether flaxseed oil can replace fish oils when trying to prevent cardiovascular disease. Actually, the results are rather mixed, as would be expected. |
Gabriel Cousens, M.D.
See book keywords and concepts | | In cooked foods, 100 percent of the enzymes are destroyed, 70-85 percent of the vitamins are destroyed, pesticides and fungicides break down to form toxic compounds, protein is 50 percent less assimilable because of coagulation, and there is an increase in free radical production.
2. All our life processes depend on enzyme function. When enzymes are depleted, so is our vital force and health.
3. Eating cooked foods causes a pathogenic leukocyctosis.
4. If food is too hot, it can disrupt our digestive enzymes.
5. | | The more detrimental effects of pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides include: cancer, nervous system disorders, birth defects, and alterations of DNA; liver, kidney, lung, and reproductive system problems; and an overall disruption of ecological cycles on the planet. Pesticide usage is a major public health problem worldwide. Pesticide usage not only leads to disease, but directly destroys the life force of the soil. It reflects a consciousness that is completely out of touch with the laws of Nature. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Other common sources of cadmium include drinking water, fertilizer, fungicides, pesticides, soil, air pollution, refined grains, rice, coffee, tea, and soft drinks. Dietary exposure to cadmium is estimated to be about 0.12 microgram to 0.49 microgram per kilogram (2.2 pounds) of body weight daily. This is not a recommendation, just the normal amount a person in modern society can expect to ingest. Intake of dietary cadmium should not exceed 7 micrograms per kilogram of body weight, per week, according to the World Health Organization. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Maybe toxic pesticides, herbicides and fungicides used in the play areas can be unsuspected factors that need more serious consideration. We must keep asking if the blood and urine of all athletes who have unexplained deaths have been checked thoroughly for chemicals. Remember, there can be economic and legal reasons for not checking the right way for all the right chemicals in all body fluids. (Accu-Chem: 972.234.5412 and ImmunoScience: 800.950.4686. |

See book keywords and concepts |  I said to him, "Don't you realize that that conventional apple is loaded with toxins and poisons, that it has been sprayed with pesticides, insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides, which are nothing but poisons and chemicals? That they have probably been injected with chemicals? That the fertilizers used in the earth are all poisons and chemicals? Those fertilizers get into the trunk of the tree and ultimately end up inside the fruit, and the fruit itself can't even bare fruit. They are made from hybrid seeds that produce fruit that can't even germinate and reproduce its own kind. | | Organic produce has up to ten times the vitamin and minerals as non-organic, and has none of the poison residues of the chemical fertilizers, pesticides and fungicides. Even so, because the soil is so depleted, organic produce still has less nutritional value than the same produce had fifty years ago. You would have to eat ten times the amount of produce today to even come close to the nutritional value of food fifty years ago. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to get the amount of vitamins, minerals, and enzymes that you need by simply eating food. |

See book keywords and concepts |  To become the products we know and love, pvc has to be combined with a number of additives, including plasticizers (phthalates), stabilizers (containing heavy metals such as lead), fungicides, and other toxic substances. Additives can wash out of pvc and pass into other materials or be lost to air.
Pesticides
Synthetic pesticides include insecticides (for killing insects), herbicides (for killing plants), fungicides (for killing fungal diseases), and nemato-cides (for killing slugs and snails). |
Peter Pringle
See book keywords and concepts |  The more luxuriant plant growth that resulted from use of the chemicals provided ideal conditions for insect, disease, and weed buildup that in turn encouraged the use of insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides. Heavy use of insecticides and pesticides poisoned more than insects and pests. Rachel Carson's Silent Spring warned that these chemicals in developed countries were beginning to cause more than high yields. Dramatic declines had been seen in bird life; their silence had become an alarm bell. |

• Don't move in next door to an agricultural field or orchard unless you know it's organic and likely to stay that way. avoid breathing the fumes. Even such simple household chemicals as ammonia and chlorine can be harmful.
TRY NOT TO USE COMBINATION DRUGS
There are some drugs that combine the different types of heart drugs listed below. It is not advisable to take the combination heart drugs. |

See book keywords and concepts |  The fungus Candida albicans thrives during antibiotic treatment and I regard it as reckless negligence to prescribe antibiotics without simultaneous fungicides and replacement therapy with lactobacilli afterwards. I believe that this practice has greatly added to the numbers in our chronically sick population. However, the antibiotic syndrome is not just due to Candida. I regard it more generally as a dysbio-sis in which the wrong kind of microbes inhabit the intestinal tract; it's not just Candida and other fungi, but many types of pathogenic bacteria including E. | | In the few percent of cases in which they are necessary, their serious aftereffects could easily be avoided by using fungicides and lactobacilli. Many people doubt the effectiveness of natural therapies against apparently serious infections, but my clinical experience leads me to believe that, frequently, natural therapies are more effective, and without causing the repeated and chronic infections seen after antibiotics. I have seen patients whose long-term antibiotic treatment was unsuccessful recover within days or weeks with natural therapies. |
