THERE IS A NEW BOOK entitled "Breasts" written by a lady who got the idea while breast feeding her infant. she happens to be a research scientist, and thought it would be inteesting to have her breast milk chemically analyzed, to find out precisely what her baby was ingesting, if anything, other than pure mother's milk.
the female breast is of course the object of universal notoriety in human culture, so such a book might be considered long over due.
so she sent a sample of her milk to germany, the fatherland of chemical analysis, and the results were shocking.
she was told that her milk included trace amounts of flame retardant, jet fuel, pesticide (DDT), and a chemical called BPA, which is used in the manufacture of plastics to harden them.
naturally she began wondering where all this was coming from. her only conclusion was that these chemicals are ambiant in the general environment, and that fatty tissue, which behaves somewhat like a sponge, absorbs them from common objects such as furniture, plastic items, and jet airplanes.
the brain and liver are also primarily fatty tissue. there is no reason why trace chemicals shouldn't be found in those places as well, and men are as vulnerable as women, presumably.
girls are reaching puberty earlier, possibly partly due to hormones injected into beef, and men are developing breast cancer, a new phenomenon.
cancer, which is in reality a collection of several diseases, is a modern disease, and breast cancer is second only to skin cancer in frequency.
what are we doing to ourselves? when will the high price of our modern chemical laced culture force us to change our ways?
i once knew a man who considered himself a "naturalist"; he refused to make use of anything which involved unnatural, processed chemicals.
he scratched his knee in a bicycle mishap, refused antibiotics while cleansing the wound, contracted gang greene, was forced to have his leg amputated, and died. true story.
we need to reduce our dependncy on chemicals, but we need to do it intelligently, selectively, not comprehensively.
otherwise, we will all become each other's nursemaid.
