🚨🇺🇸GUM COULD BE A MAJOR SOURCE OF MICROPLASTIC EXPOSURE Chewing gum may come with more than just flavor - it could be delivering microplastics straight into your mouth. UCLA researchers found that a single stick can release up to 3,000 plastic particles into saliva, especially within the first 2... minutes of chewing. If you're a regular gum chewer, that could mean ingesting over 30,000 microplastics a year - and that’s just from gum alone. Scientists still don’t know what long-term effects these particles may have, but they’re now showing up in human organs. “The exposure is real,” said lead researcher Dr. Sanjay Mohanty. “We just wanted to know how much.” Source: The Independentshow more

Microplastics are even more prevalent than I thought. If they are one of the causes of dementia, we need to eliminate them.

STUDY: CHEWING GUM PACKS A MICROPLASTIC PUNCH Love to chew gum? You’re also likely munching on microplastics. Researchers found that each stick of gum can release about 100 microplastics as you chew. The culprit: the gum’s base, made from a plastic polymer. Health experts are raising the alarm, pointing out that these tiny plastic bits can cling to bacteria and may pose health risks. As gum chewing stays popular worldwide, this new study shows it’s not just your teeth that take a hit, it’s a ‘fresh’ reminder that microplastics are everywhere, even in our favorite treats. Sounds like something Robert F. Kennedy Jr needs to look into. Source: CBS

"You A Gum Chewer?...You May Want To Rethink Your Gum Chewing Habit." Layne Kilpatrick "You Are Chewing The Exact Ingredients In Tires & Glue With A Hefty Dose Of Plastic." "The US FDA Allows Gum Manufacturers To Hide 100s Of Chemicals Within 'Gum Base' On Ingredient Labels." Some of the substances used in common chewing gums include styrene-butadiene, polyethylene & polyvinyl acetate—compounds found in tires, plastic bags & wood glue, respectively. Most chewing gum today contains synthetic chemicals & plastics as part of its "gum base". Modern synthetic gum bases include: Polyethylene: A common type of plastic used to make items like plastic bags & milk jugs. Polyvinyl acetate: A plastic used in wood glue. Styrene-butadiene rubber: A synthetic rubber used to manufacture car tires. Paraffin wax: A petroleum byproduct. Major gum manufacturers like Wrigley don’t disclose these chemicals, instead choosing to hide them behind the vague term “gum base.” But now you’ll know that whenever you see the term “gum base” on a pack of Doublemint, you might as well be chewing on a set of Michelin tires & washing it down with a thick glass of Elmer’s glue. The FDA allows manufacturers to list "gum base" as a single ingredient rather than disclosing each of its individual components, which includes synthetic plastics & rubbers. The specific formula for a brand's gum base is typically a trade secret. FDA regulations on gum base is basically no regulation at all: A "food additive" category: The FDA classifies "chewing gum base" as a food additive that may contain any number of individual substances. Undisclosed formula: A manufacturer can use any ingredient they coin as GRAS, Generally Recognized As Safe. It is 100% legal to have hidden materials in their proprietary gum base formula without listing them individually on the chewing gum's ingredient label, as long as they are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) or approved food additives. Consumer advocacy: This practice has drawn criticism from consumer advocates who argue that the GRAS designation is overly vague & allows companies to hide potentially harmful chemical additives from the public. Natural Chewing Gum Alternatives: SIMPLY GUM: A widely available and well-known brand of natural, plastic-free gum. It is made with natural chicle, organic cane sugar & natural flavors. Simply Gum is also free of aspartame & other artificial sweeteners. THE HUMBLE CO: This brand offers a sugar-free, biodegradable gum made from natural ingredients. NATHAN & SONS UNDERBRUSH CHEWING GUM: This gum is handcrafted from natural tree saps like acacia, chicle & spruce. The company emphasizes that its gum has a different, sap-based texture compared to conventional plastic gums. CHEWSY: A plant-based, plastic-free & sugar-free chewing gum. Chewsy uses a biodegradable, natural gum base & is sweetened with xylitol. WELDENTAL: This brand is noted for both its plastic-free gum formula & its packaging. The gum comes in plastic-free packaging, such as cardboard tubes & uses a plant-material eco-bag for refills. 👇UCLA Finds Plastics In Chewing Gum👇 👇What Chewing Gum Is Actually Made From👇 👇Microplastics Are Plaquing Up Your Arteries👇 Speaker: @hormonespecialist

Your daily cup of tea could be dosing you with billions of microplastics Recent studies reveal that nylon, polypropylene, and cellulose teabags release staggering amounts of micro- and nano-plastics into each cup—up to 1.20 billion particles per milliliter These plastics don’t just pass through; they interact uniquely with human gut cells, potentially compromising gut health For those who want to minimize exposure, loose-leaf tea is the safer bet

This is insane “Guess how many microplastics they found in a can of Coke?” - Plastic bottles contain 250,000 microplastics per liter - There are 3.7 million in a single can of Coke Read that again. “The numbers just mean that on a daily basis we are ingesting millions and millions of nanoplastics And if you look at this — they've been found in every single man that's ever been studied in their testicles. They've been found in brain, ovaries, kidneys, every organ in our body is full of these particles. They can directly be damaging to our ability to produce hormones” There is also research that shows microplastics are being going in our brains. In fact our brains are now 0.5% plastic according to a study by the National Institutes of Health This has to stop, we need revolutionary change and regulations against microplastics

Big News ‼️ The Trump administration says it will decrease the levels of micro plastics in medicines and drinking water New research shows microplastics in the brain could be causing dementia A team “looked at brain tissue from cadavers and found that the average brain could contain up to 7 grams of microplastics. That's roughly equal to the weight of a plastic spoon, just in the brain” “Research has shown nanoplastics can cross the blood-brain barrier, and one of the startling discoveries from this study showed that in the brains of those who had dementia, there were significantly higher levels of microplastics” “In those dementia cases, there was 5-8x more plastic in those individuals” “In a separate study, researchers found microplastics in placentas, suggesting pre-birth exposure coming from the mother's bloodstream through the placenta in utero. And they found that babies born preterm who face higher rates of complications had a higher concentration of microplastics in their blood” I found 10 common things you can get microplastics from in America Bottled water Tap water Seafood Table salt Beer Tea bags Synthetic clothing Cosmetics Air dust Food packaging Microplastics pollute water, fish eat the feeders who eat the microplastics and that’s why seafood is a source of microplastics We have to stop the plastic pollution

A Taiwanese company fought hard to get quick approval for constructing their chemical plant near waterways in Texas Now that company is dumping thousands of pounds of microplastics into our waterways and land “It could be making all of us sick” and causing cancer “Plastic waste everywhere — in people's swimming pools, It was on their cars, covering their cars. So it was everywhere, except it was total denial and the state wouldn't do anything. They would have maybe a 2,000 pound release and it was like all over the yard, it's all over the cement, it's in the ditches, it's overflowing. They eventually reported two pounds, two pounds to the EPA, and it was over 2000 pounds” “So what does this all mean for you? Well, it could be making all of us sick. Researchers at the University of Vienna have even linked microplastic ingestion to colorectal cancer. At the same time, we're seeing more and more and more of that cancer among surprisingly young people. The effects on the endocrine system, that's where hormones are produced, are widely documented. Microplastics are showing up in fetuses and placenta. We have no idea what this will do to our next generations — it's real concerning to read all these papers that come out and hear that there are microplastics in our organs. You know, what long-term impacts is that gonna have?”

Stop drinking hot coffee and tea from plastic-lined to-go cups Doing so is a major source of exposure to microplastics and their associated chemicals Most paper coffee cups are coated with plastic, and when heat hits that lining, it releases a surge of BPA (an endocrine‑disrupting chemical) directly into your drink Just the act of adding hot liquid can multiply BPA release by up to 55x Use your own stainless steel or ceramic mug; it’s one of the simplest ways to protect yourself

Microplastics have been found in 100% of sperm samples tested. Studies show microplastics are linked to abnormal sperm shape and impaired motility, which means sperm can’t move as efficiently—bad news for fertility. 31% of the microplastics found in sperm come from polystyrene, a plastic commonly used in food packaging. Even worse, polyvinyl chloride (PVC)—used in water pipes—breaks down and leaches microplastics into tap water, a major source of exposure. Microplastics often contain BPA, a known endocrine disruptor that mimics estrogen. Research shows that men with higher BPA levels have significantly lower testosterone and reduced sperm quality. Reducing exposure is key: avoid heating plastics, use stainless steel or glass for drinking, and filter tap water with systems like reverse osmosis that remove microplastics. The goal is not panic—but informed action. To learn more about how microplastics impact reproductive health, the brain, the cardiovascular system, and hormones, check out episode 95 of the FoundMyFitness Podcast. Show notes:

Fruits & vegetables likely account for a majority of people's dietary microplastic and PFAS intake. What’s frustrating is that this isn’t something you can just rinse off. In many cases, the contamination appears to be taken up into the food itself. Organic may reduce some of that exposure, but even organic farms can be affected when they’re near contaminated land or water. Should you stop eating produce? No. We should be much more upset about how widespread these chemicals have become, especially when children are being exposed through foods we otherwise consider healthy. One practical thing I think is worth considering is beta-glucan. There’s some evidence it may help support the excretion of PFAS, and given how unavoidable these exposures are becoming, that may be a useful tool, especially for families who can’t realistically eliminate every source.

Qullamaggie on His Friends That Started Trading With Him “Yeah, some of them. Some of them started up. You know some of them tried trading unsuccessfully. Two of my friends actually started trading; they traded for like a year, but yeah they didn’t have much success. They could have had success if they had stuck to it, but they got bored and they thought, you know, everyone thinks. You know, but it takes years and years and years, and that’s really the only difference between successful traders and unsuccessful traders. Because the successful ones don’t give up. They stick with it even if they blow up. They come back; they go back to trading. That’s what I did several times. I could just I could have just given up and you know finished my studies and gone to work. You know, worked at a regular job. And now I make as much money in a year that I would have made in a lifetime having a regular job. So dropping out of school was the best decision I’ve ever made. The funny thing is most of my friends don’t really know how much; how successful I am. Like they think I’m making like as much money as I would in a normal job.”

A woman held a tub of Neapolitan ice cream under running water and something strange happened. Instead of melting into a liquid, it kept its shape and turned into a rubbery, foam-like mass. Traditional ice cream made from milk, cream, sugar, eggs, and flavoring melts when it warms up. Many modern versions contain a long list of stabilizers and emulsifiers such as polysorbate 80, guar gum, carrageenan, cellulose gum, xanthan gum, and mono- and diglycerides. These ingredients are added to improve texture, shelf life, and resistance to melting. A century ago, ice cream could be made with just a handful of ingredients. Today, some products contain a long list of additives designed to keep them stable for manufacturing, transport, and storage. When a frozen dessert behaves more like a foam than something made from milk and cream, it raises an interesting question: how much processing are we willing to accept before food stops feeling like food?

Kudos to Dr. Phil because this is one of the best I've seen from a mainstream voice in discussing the, potential, issues with Disclosure that something more advanced is on this planet with us. It was uploaded to his YT on May 8th of this year.) ~ Dr. Phil: "I mean, think about it. Doesn't it cause us to question the meaning of humanity and the cosmos? Wouldn't it change that? Wouldn't it cause us to have to reexamine philosophy, religion, personal worldviews? "Potential reframing of human exceptionalism that we base our value systems on, is that we're at the top of the food chain. That there is human exceptionalism. That we, as humans, are the be-all and end-all of this world. And then, all of a sudden, we find out, not true. To them, we could be like a fungus. "People have posed questions like, 'Well, if they're here, why haven't they talked to us? Why haven't they identified themselves to us?' It may be that we're so minuscule and irrelevant, why would they bother. "And so, the psychological impact on individuals, the individual effects, could result in acute stress, just being awestruck, unbelievable curiosity, and existential anxiety. Like, who are we? If we're not at the top of the food chain, if we're not the be-all and end-all of the Universe, then what are we? Are we like gum on the shoe of the superior beings? How would we explain all of that? "And so people would begin to look for coping strategies, immediately seeking information, spiritual exploration, figuring out how do I fit in? And then, in terms of community dynamics, the world, it could be very divisive. It could increase everything that we do, culturally, religiously, political identities. Rumors, and misinformation could flourish, especially on the web. Oh my God, can you imagine what would start flying around then? Making trusted communicators really crucial. And if there's a crisis of confidence with the government because they've lied to you for so long, where do you go to get real information? "And the long-term mental health aspects when you don't know the motives or the intent of these entities could create chronic worry, conspiracy thinking, paranoia, feelings of unbelievable inadequacy. Some may celebrate with renewed optimism, like 'Wow, look what we found! These people, if they can do all this, maybe they can cure all the diseases. They can come up with solutions to problems. This is great!' "How would governments react (laughs)? Russia, China, United States would all be scrambling to establish some kind of process for monitoring potential collaboration. Our intelligence communities would go crazy. Our Department of Defense, our science agencies would have to start redoing everything, revisiting risk assessment. "Of course, we would be trying to establish exchange programs. Maybe they're not even interested? Like I say, we could be like gum on their shoe. Who knows? How do you feel about that? "If they were to reveal themselves, what is their agenda? Some might say, 'Look, if they were going to do harm to us, wouldn't they have done it by now?' I don't know. If we're so insignificant, it doesn't matter, it could be irrelevant. But then, why are they here? Now you may think, 'Okay, Doctor Phil's finally gone over the high side. He's gone down nutball highway.' That's not what I'm telling you. "I'm saying the government knows more than they're telling us. My question is: Is it unsafe for the general population to know all of this? Would it create such anxiety and panic that it's more than people can handle? Because it would rewrite almost every value, every paradigm that we know. Because we think we're at the top of the food chain. What if, we're not? What does that mean? And how would you feel about that? "You really need to ask yourself those questions because I think we're getting ready, maybe not to meet someone from another galaxy, but I think we're getting ready to find out there are things that we can't explain, but do have in our possession. Evidence that we can explain with concepts we understand. The question is: How do you feel about it? Because that's the real story." (He briefly mentions Grusch in the full, video.)

And then, in terms of community dynamics, the world, it could be very divisive. It could increase everything that we do, culturally, religiously, political identities. Rumors, and misinformation could flourish, especially on the web. Oh my God, can you imagine what would start flying around then? Making trusted communicators really crucial. And if there's a crisis of confidence with the government because they've lied to you for so long, where do you go to get real information? "And the long-term mental health aspects when you don't know the motives or the intent of these entities could create chronic worry, conspiracy thinking, paranoia, feelings of unbelievable inadequacy. Some may celebrate with renewed optimism, like 'Wow, look what we found! These people, if they can do all this, maybe they can cure all the diseases. They can come up with solutions to problems. This is great!' "How would governments react (laughs)? Russia, China, United States would all be scrambling to establish some kind of process for monitoring potential collaboration. Our intelligence communities would go crazy. Our Department of Defense, our science agencies would have to start redoing everything, revisiting risk assessment. "Of course, we would be trying to establish exchange programs. Maybe they're not even interested? Like I say, we could be like gum on their shoe. Who knows? How do you feel about that? "If they were to reveal themselves, what is their agenda? Some might say, 'Look, if they were going to do harm to us, wouldn't they have done it by now?' I don't know. If we're so insignificant, it doesn't matter, it could be irrelevant. But then, why are they here? Now you may think, 'Okay, Doctor Phil's finally gone over the high side. He's gone down nutball highway.' That's not what I'm telling you. "I'm saying the government knows more than they're telling us. My question is: Is it unsafe for the general population to know all of this? Would it create such anxiety and panic that it's more than people can handle? Because it would rewrite almost every value, every paradigm that we know. Because we think we're at the top of the food chain. What if, we're not? What does that mean? And how would you feel about that? "You really need to ask yourself those questions because I think we're getting ready, maybe not to meet someone from another galaxy, but I think we're getting ready to find out there are things that we can't explain, but do have in our possession. Evidence that we can explain with concepts we understand. The question is: How do you feel about it? Because that's the real story." (He briefly mentions Grusch in the full, video.)

We may think we’ve left the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic behind, but SARS-CoV-2 hasn’t left us. 🦠 At today’s DeSci conference, LCL founder Rohan Dixit explained how the number of people who need antiviral treatments to remove the SARS-CoV-2 virus from their bodies may be MUCH higher than originally thought. Persistent viral infection is emerging as the leading cause of Long Covid, affecting up to 100M people across the world. Yet a recent study from Brigham and Women's Hospital showed the number of people who need these treatments may in fact be much higher. This paper from Swank et al. just came out in the Dec. 2024 edition of Clinical Microbiology and Infection. It showed that the same biomarkers pointing to chronic infection in Long Covid patients were also found in up to 20% of people who felt recovered from their acute Covid infection. This means the virus itself may still be present. We now know this virus can get into the brain, and all of the major organs of the body. 🧠 The frightening reality is that the number of people who need treatments to remove virus could be up to 20% of everyone who’s had Covid. 😱 That’s because even if the virus isn’t necessarily causing symptoms that people notice right now, that doesn’t mean its presence is harmless. As research progresses, we’re learning more and more about how certain viruses can persist in the body and cause long-term health consequences. For example, a potential casual link appears to be developing between EBV infection and multiple sclerosis. Persistent viral infection may also be the root cause of diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and ME/CFS. 🦠 What’s more, persistent viral infection can cause immune dysfunction that even leads to cancer over time. 💔 Lets face it: the reality of Covid-19 is very different from what we were told. Up to 20% of us who don't have Long Covid may still be carrying the virus around with us, even if we don’t feel sick. Let’s not play Russian roulette with our health. Lets do the smart thing and use actual science to solve this problem, today. ❤️‍🩹 (For references, see next tweet!).
