1. Chemicals in food and environment causes early puberty in girls
That is what they are now saying. Well, explain to me why my daughter was 11 (1980). I was 10 (1959). My Mom was 11 (1921). My Grandma was 11 (1911). Tell me what "chemicals" in the foods there were in 1959, 1921, or 1911? Maybe there is a pattern in my family, as in GENETICS, for early puberty?

Does anybody STILL believe anything these "experts" say? Just a waste of taxpayer money I think.

3. Starting puberty
between 10 and 11 is not unusual. What is unusual is that the number of girls starting before then has doubled in 20 years. That constitutes an anomaly. The only issue is the cause, not the effect.

6. Not starting puberty,
I am talking about FINISHING it at 10, as in getting my period at 10. I was wearing a bra at 7 years old because I HAD to. Not one of those silly training bra things either. By the time I was 10 years old, I was a full B cup. Today I am a DD. I wore a lot of baggy shirts because I wanted to hide it. Other kids laughed at me way back then. I am sure my Mom and Grandma experienced the same thing. My daughter? I used to carry her BC around with me because people questioned all the time how old she was. They didn't believe she was 11 years old. She looked about 16, and not because she wore makeup and dressed that way. She was a big, fully developed woman at 11 years old in 1980.

My point is you cannot blame chemicals for EVERYTHING, nor does "one size fits ALL".

4. Yeah, we wouldn't want to listen to experts.
We all know that chemicals ain't gonna hurt no one. My preacher said there ain't nothing to these crazy librul claims.

7. and one anecdotal story about one anomalous genetic line...
ought to replace dozens of scientists, who are probably foreigners anyway.

9. No, not ONE genetic line
We are not all tall, blue eyed, blonde Aryans who have later puberty. There has been research for DECADES that certain ethnicities go through puberty younger than others. These studies smack to me of ethnic/racial prejudice hidden between the lines of "medical science". SHORT people are more prone to heart attacks. So what did science say about that? Of course, not genetics because how what people can that? There has to be something people are doing WRONG to make them short (or have early puberty) that we can change and charge MONEY for. Mothers didn't EAT right. ROFL Come on. Again, they want a "Master Race"?

10. Let me tell you a little story.
100% of the male smallmouth bass sampled in the Potomac River had female ovaries. THAT is not a genetic variation. I take chemically induced confused sexual identity very seriously.

12. So all Asians are SHORT because of chemicals
or their mothers didn't eat right? Again, what chemicals were there in the early 19th century? Why do we all have to be the SAME?????? I am also NOT OBESE either (100 lbs.), like the majority of Americans. Oh, what is wrong with me to be so different? GENES again. NOBODY in my family was ever fat. Come on, this is DU. We WELCOME DIVERSITY. We are not Repukes who think we should all clones of one another.

You see genes cannot be the cause of anything with medical science because there is no pill or medical procedure to cure it. Maybe there is cure too for brown eyes and skin too? When will they get around to that one?

13. I didn't say anything like that.
I have no problem with genetic diversity. Genetic diversity makes a species strong.

But science is now recognizing the effects of man made chemicals on sexual identity. This is undeniable. It has nothing to do with your particular situation and no one is claiming it does.

5. unfermented soy products are not good
for men or children. Lots of plant estrogen. I only use fermented soy sauce.

11. All vegetables have that
That's a myth propagated by a person who gets paid by the meat industry to make soy look bad (and whose website puts viruses on your computer). Soy doesn't cause any ill effects due to "plant estrogen".

8. just finished a book
"8 Weeks to Women's Wellness" by Dr. Marianne Marchese

She uses the abundant environmental health research and explains how chemicals are impacting the body's functions.
Here is an example: She says that cadmium at low dose interferes with calcium, Vitamin D and collagen metabolism. Cadmium affects functioning of the kidney, which alters calcium, collagen and Vitamin D absorption.
She also says that lead levels have been associated with increased parathyroid hormone which regulates calcium, Vitamin D and bone resorption.


This is just one of many examples. Environmental health research is segregated from the medical literature so our medical mainstream is still going on the outdated paradigm: The dose makes the poison. Now we know that exogenous chemicals are altering the way our bodies function. By coincidence (?) the diseases that are rising - such as thyroid, diabetes are affected by chemicals.
