With the
increase in solar flares and expert warnings over the threat of asteroids,
volcanoes, and earthquakes, it’s understandable to be concerned about the
future of the earth and mankind alike. What many experts and publications are
forgetting, however, is that these disasters may actually be less threatening
than the harm placing on our own bodies. Known by some as the ‘infertility
timebomb’, men are increasingly becoming infertile at an astounding rate that
worries many scientists. We can’t control the trajectory of asteroids, but we
can control what we put into our bodies.
Scientific
reports have been revealing that men are rapidly on the path to infertility at
an alarming pace. One in five men between the ‘healthy’ ages of 18 and 25 were
reported to produce abnormal sperm counts, with only 5 to 15% of their sperm
healthy enough to be classified as ‘normal’ by the World Health Organization.
What’s more, a male infertility problem is considered important by a shocking
40% of couples. Professor Niels Skakkebaek from the University of Copenhagen
has been speaking out about the fertility issue, stating that it is as
important as the severe environmental concerns that currently face the planet.
Another scientist stated that if scientists from another planet were to study
the male reproductive system, they would actually conclude that ‘man was
destined for rapid extinction’.
Ubiquitous,
Toxic Chemicals Leading to Mass Infertility
Given the
severity of the problem, you must be wondering why you haven’t heard of it
before. Well, it may have to do with the corporate food industry as well as
biotech giant Monsanto. Chances are that you are being exposed to
infertility-linked items on a daily basis, from food products to common
herbicides. Ubiquitous substances like bisphenol A (BPA) have been tied to
fertility defects in offspring which cut off their ability to reproduce, and
can be found in everything from plastic water bottles to canned goods.
Shockingly, fertility-crushing BPA has been found in 90% of babies’ cord blood.
Even junk
food, which compromises a significant percentage of the American diet, has been
directly linked to infertility. Analyzing a similar demographic of males
between the ages of 18 and 22, scientists found that those who ate a high
amount of junk food had poorer quality sperm than those with a nutrient-dense
diet. Is it any wonder that fertility rates are declining?
Unfortunately,
it does not stop there. One recent study found that Monsanto’s best-selling
herbicide Roundup can also be contributing to the possible extinction of the
human race. Researchers tested Roundup on mature male rats at a concentration
range between 1 and 10,000 parts per million (ppm), and found that within 1 to
48 hours of exposure, testicular cells of the mature rats were either damaged
or killed. The most disturbing part? In a study conducted by a German
university, the active component of Roundup, Glyphosate, was found in all urine
samples tested. The very substances linked to infertility are perhaps some of
the most commonly found in the body. And this is not a complete list — in fact,
it is but only a small sample.
Fertility
expert Dr. Gillian Lockwood says that these devastating effects on reproductive
health occur even before birth, attacking the fetus as it develops.
‘Sperm
counts are declining and there is mounting evidence that the problem starts
even before birth,’ says Dr Gillian Lockwood, medical director of Midland
Fertility Services.
Monsanto’s Roundup is Killing Human Kidney Cells
Monsanto’s
‘biopesticide’ known as Bt is not only developing mutated insects and requiring
excessive pesticide use, but new findings show that it is also killing human
kidney cells — even in low doses. Amazingly, Monsanto’s superweed-breeding
Roundup also has the same effect. Scientists have demonstrated in new research
that the Bt pesticide, in addition to Monsanto’s best-selling herbicide
Roundup, exhibit direct toxicity to human cells. The findings add to the long
list of hazardous effects presented by Monsanto’s genetically modified
creations.
These dangerous
Bt crops currently engulf 39% of globally cultivated GMO crops, and Monsanto
does not seem to be slowing down on their campaign to expand usage. Led by
Gilles-Eric Séralini, a French scientist from the University of Caen, Séralini
and his team are no strangers to the toxic effects of both Bt and glyphosate —
the main component used in Roundup. Previously, Séralini and a group of other
scientists found that Roundup is linked to infertility, killing testicular
cells in rats. The report stated that within 1 to 48 hours of exposure,
testicular cells of the mature rats were either damaged or killed.
At only 100
parts per million (ppm), Monsanto’s biopesticide lead to cell death.
Furthermore, they found that Roundup at 57.2ppm
killed half of the cell population – 200 times below agricultural
use. This is concerning as researchers
have previously detected Roundup in 41% of the 140 groundwater samples taken
from Catalonia Spain that were actually above the limit of quantification. Even
in very small doses, the research indicates that Roundup appears to be
assaulting your biology.
It has also
been divulged that Roundup is damaging other life outside of humans, shown to
decrease the population of monarch butterflies by killing the very plants that
the butterflies rely on for habitat and food. A 2011 study published in the
journal Insect Conservation and Diversity found that increasing usage of
genetically modified Roundup Ready corn and soybeans is significantly
contributing to the decline in monarch butterfly populations within North
America due to the destruction of milkweed.
The
evidence that Monsanto’s biopesticide and Roundup alike are disrupting both
nature and human safety is clear, yet little is being done about it. Even the
EPA is being bombarded with calls to action, with 22 academic corn experts now
warning the EPA that GMO crops are devastating the future of agricultural
production. When will corporate giant Monsanto be held accountable for the
devastation of their creations?
Time For
Change
Scientists
and experts are sounding the alarm. It’s time to change the current health
paradigm and rid the biosphere of toxic substances that are leading to the
demise of the entire human race. Infertility-causing chemicals are a threat
even in small concentrations, but many of these chemicals like BPA are being
ingested in such large amounts that the catastrophic effects on the global
populace will not be fully known for years. The same holds even more true for
Monsanto’s Roundup, which is not only threatening the reproductive capabilities
of the population, but the environment as a whole.
Activism
works. Global activism has forced companies like Campbell’s to change their
BPA-containing recipe, rid the food supply of high-fructose corn syrup, and introduce
a number of GMO labeling campaigns internationally. Now it’s time to take back
the health freedom of the planet and secure the prosperity of the human race as
a whole. This is not an isolated issue.
