Our environment is awash in chemicals and toxins, many of which we have no consideration. Each time we shower, wash our hands, clean dishes, put on makeup, wash clothes, cook food, drink, etc., most of us are inhaling, touching, or consuming in some manner poisons that disrupt the vital processes of the body, from the endocrine system to fertility. Although some chemicals may be “proven” safe in a laboratory, there is little that can be tested in relationship to bioaccumulation and every day use when factoring in exposure to other elements, which could turn something un-harmful into something very harmful.
Industries with their influence upon government regulators fight with lobbyists and bias scientific conclusions to inform of the safety of their products, be them pharmaceuticals or of a more consumer nature. Any suggestion that a certain drug or treatment (notice cure is rarely used) could be less effective than a truly “natural” method is met with claims of pseudo-science and inorganic skepticism; that is until those very industries find a new product to sell under the label or implication of being more “natural.” Food manufacturers use this label on nearly every product and now drug makers like Pfizer are suggesting that cancer could be treated without surgery or chemo, but only if you take a new drug. Other drug-makers like Madrigal Pharmaceuticals Inc. are rushing to market an “experimental therapy” called MGL-3196 to treat, not cure, a side effect of obesity – non-alcoholic steatohepatitis or fatty liver disease.
Like with any disease or illness there is minor focus on the cause and major focus on the side-effects, which are obviously more profitable than simply curing the sickness.
Other studies are suggesting that Triclosan, an antimicrobial agent found in toothpaste, toys and cosmetics, depletes Bifidobacterium in the gut, leading to inflammation, according to a study from the journal Science Translational Medicine. This also leads to cancer growth, especially colon, and what is considered chronic inflammation.
A study published in PLOS One in 2011 also documented another household chemical used for plastics, dryer sheets, shampoos, etc., called phthalate, which negatively impacts the male reproductive system and causes a drop in IQ levels, especially in children yet unborn. This drop in overall IQ is not just the result of one or two chemicals, though, nor is it the direct result of the dysgenic fertility theory, where unintelligent parents are having more kids and intelligent parents are having fewer. This “theory” is part reality, but wholly dismissed by the scientific community. One researcher, Ole Rogeberg, quoted in a study published in 2018, says that environmental factors cause IQ alteration, including media, education and nutrition, lastly. This trend has been determined for a period of time exceeding a decade.
Once again there is bias dismissal of certain detailed points in order to dispel any notion of an intentionally dumbed down populace as per the subject of population control and social engineering; there is a dismissing of information relating to industry responsibility, or even personal responsibly by suggesting that the main issue with lower IQ is not enough education – the process of receiving or giving instruction. In this case, it would be logical to presume that if “education” was truly the problem then there should be steps taken to better educate. But since the latter is simply a process of reaching instruction, the question should be asked of the quality of instruction and the intention behind its distributors.
But besides education, IQs having been falling for decades and one 2013 study showed a 14-piont average decreases in IQ: that’s 1.23 points per decade lost on average. Microsoft also conducted a study in 2015 showing another staggering drop in attention spans: the “average human attention span in 2000 was 12 seconds, but by 2013 it was only 8 seconds,” a full second shorter than a goldfish!
It seems that while IQs and attention spans drop, so too does our overall realization of conscious interaction with the world. This is not the direct result of one particular factor, but the accumulation and association with several factors that include varieties of drugs, food, drinks, environmental elements, and the large number of chemicals we are exposed to inside and outside of our homes. Factoring in education, or the lack there of, and the excessive usage of digital technology, and whether intentional or otherwise, it seems that humans are part of a large science experiment; one in which the entire world is a laboratory. The end results may be pre-determined or entirely unknown.
Even in micro cases it is now being suggested that since people cannot be scared into receiving medical treatment they could have their behavior modified so they will accept that which otherwise may seem unnecessary. As with concerns about climatic changes there is little true concern over personal responsibility and large amounts of pseudo-concern based on political bias for placing responsibility for everything on external, third-party sources, be them government or industry. One study published in Environmental Pysghology determined that, like drugs, food, or anything else, virtue signaling is the main psycholgocl reason for blatant displays of climate concern – the study suggesting that those concerned over climate change are the least likely to live a balanced lifestyle, while those labeled skeptics were on the opposite end of the spectrum in regards to recycling, taking public transport or living within minimal guidelines.
