The chemicals once seemed near magical, able to repel water, oil and stains.

By the 1970s, DuPont and 3M had used them to develop Teflon and Scotchgard, and they slipped into an array of everyday products, from gum wrappers to sofas to frying pans to carpets. Known as perfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, they were a boon to the military, too, which used them in foam that snuffed out explosive oil and fuel fires.

It’s long been known that, in certain concentrations, the compounds could be dangerous if they got into water or if people breathed dust or ate food that contained them. Tests showed they accumulated in the blood of chemical factory workers and residents living nearby, and studies linked some of the chemicals to cancers and birth defects.

Now two new analyses of drinking water data and the science used to analyze it make clear the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Defense have downplayed the public threat posed by these chemicals. Far more people have likely been exposed to dangerous levels of them than has previously been reported because contamination from them is more widespread than has ever been officially acknowledged.

Moreover, ProPublica has found, the government’s understatement of the threat appears to be no accident.

The EPA and the Department of Defense calibrated water tests to exclude some harmful levels of contamination and only register especially high concentrations of chemicals, according to the vice president of one testing company. Several prominent scientists told ProPublica the DOD chose to use tests that would identify only a handful of chemicals rather than more advanced tests that the agencies’ own scientists had helped develop which could potentially identify the presence of hundreds of additional compounds.

Science fact or fiction? Senate exposes NHMRC did not use accepted scientific methods. The longer I live the more I agree with George Carlin. “I have certain rules I live by. My first rule: I don’t believe anything the government tells me.” If you expect logic, sanity and fair dealings from the government then this will come as a head spin. Unfortunately because it happens all too often, it’s more like “business as usual”, especially from the medical cartel.

We’ve previously explored the importance of testosterone in depth. It provides energy and zest for life, increases muscle mass and decreases fat, and improves libido and sex performance. As your testosterone levels drop over time, all of those benefits do a 180 and go into the negative. In other words, you start aging at an accelerated rate. Today, however, we’re going to look at some different aspects that weren’t covered in that newsletter. We’re also going to examine the issue of free VS bound testosterone in more detail. And we’re then going to look at some recent studies and what they have to say about the benefits and risks of actual testosterone supplementation–as well as the truth behind them. And finally, we’re going to take a look at how, in most cases, you can maximize the benefits and minimize the risks associated with testosterone supplementation by instead reactivating your body’s ability to produce its own testosterone and optimizing your levels of bioavailable testosterone VS adding testosterone with a doctor’s prescription.

Prostate health, what is it and should you care? Yes absolutely you should care! Did you know that 50% of western males 50 years and over experience the symptoms of an enlarged prostate? This is primarily due to hormonal changes taking place in the body, as it ages, which causes the prostate to enlarge (This is one theory among a few).

Fortunately, if you’re experiencing symptoms of prostate enlargement it does not always mean that you have prostate cancer. Most likely it will be a benign enlargement, also called benign prostatic hyperplasia. If you’re experiencing any of the symptoms listed below, please see your doctor asap.
