Millions of people around the world have no choice but to consume water that exceeds the lead contamination level deemed acceptable by the World Health Organization.
Studies show that over 80% of U.S. streams and rivers are contaminated with a broad array of medical drugs, including hormones, antibiotics, antidepressants and heart mediations, as well as chemicals from personal care and household cleaning products
Today death is mostly due to lifestyle related conditions. Bad eating habits, stress and lack of exercise often lead to heart disease, stroke, cancer, and diabetes
In the latest World Health Organization Report we see that of the nearly 56 million people who have died, 16.97 million people, or 33%, have died of cardiovascular diseases.
Over 7 million have died of cancer-related diseases.
3.6 million have died of respiratory diseases, while another 101 million are listed as suffering from them.
And just over 3/4 of a million people have died of diabetes.
This and earlier reports point to the disturbing conclusion that these non-communicable diseases will increase in occurrence.
Our modern food supply has become a mixture of chemicals and additives with the emphasis on appearance and taste as well as shelf life, rather than on the nutritional value. That's why by middle age many people have as much as 20 pounds of undigested, putrefactive food in their colon.
Our world is vastly different from that of our ancestors. While we are more aware of environmental pollution today than ever before, we can't avoid it. We eat, breathe and live in our modern environment, making the ingestion of toxins a part of everyday life!
