Gender-bending chemicals found in plastic
The dangers of Bisphenol A (BPA) in the plastic products we use everyday has been around for a while, but I just saw a new article on it this morning.
As you know, fertility has been dropping in the western world for quite some time, and there is some evidence that BPA plastics contribute to that. There are a host of other health issues linked to it as well. I read about this at least ten years ago, when it was just a "conspiracy theory" story. I have changed the way that I store and heat food (especially the microwave). I went to all glass containers. I don't drink liquids in plastic that are exposed to the sun for extended periods of time. The plastics will leach the chemical into foods and liquids that are heated more readily.

Aspartame is another common toxic additive which, has been seen in studies and clinical research, produce neurotoxic effects.
Omega 3 has a neuroprotective effect against aspartame. Some of the population is deficient in Omega 3's! Edit: What about fruit? Mangos and oranges are my favorite Last edited by VitaminAlizée333; 02-07-2018 at 02:03 AM.. Reason: Automerged Doubleposts |

I read an article about Omega-6 fatty acids and how the general population, especially young people, consume way too much of it in relation to Omega-3. Potato chips and processed foods that contain vegetable oils are a main culprit. It's not that Omega-6 is BAD in of itself, but the ratio of Omega-6 vs Omega-3 can be such that if there is an overload of O6 vs O3, it has been linked to behavioral problems in children, such as ADHD. In a controlled study, adjusting the diets of the test subjects by increasing intake of O3 and decreasing O6 showed marked improvements in behavioral issues, and probably saved them from having to take Ritalin. My digestive system does not tolerate many fruit, especially ones with high citric acid content. Oranges, grapefruit, plums, lemons, lime, etc. all on my Do Not Eat list. Interestingly, a lemon flavor is one of my favorite flavors (such as in 7-Up), or in desserts, or sprinkling lemon juice on seafood, even pasta! Some fruit I just don't like the texture, like peaches, apples, and mangos. I stick with fruit that I like and tolerate well, such as bananas, pears, grapes, red wine |

Other than that, I can eat bananas, strawberries and blueberries. I also have to have lemon juice on my fish. You would post a picture like that. I'm two weeks into my diet! |

Interestingly, any fruit heated and made into a cobbler, even blueberries (which I have no issues with raw), really makes me pay for it a few hours after eating it. Maybe it is the other ingredients added to the cobbler. |

I have another issue with certain foods. Sometimes when I eat something such as if eating plain tuna fish (packed in water), my throat will tighten up and sometimes I get the hick ups too. Other foods cause it too. I was in Oslo on vacation a couple of years ago and after a day of doing touristry stuff, on my way back to the hotel, I stopped at a 7/11 to get a hot dog on a bun with just mustard. I got the same type of feeling with my throat tightening up pretty good.
So the next day, I was in the same position and I did the same thing to see if it would happen again and it did. When I got home, I usually stay away from processed foods, but as an experiment, I got a pack of hot dogs and some buns and ate them over the next few days and no problems what so ever. Of course the ingredients can vary greatly in what they use to make these foods over there compared to here. Talking to my family doctor and a nutritionist about it was a waste of time. Usually if I get that feeling, drinking something will get rid of it. |

This caused me to look for Alizee finger pictures this morning.
You are right. In the picture in question, her index finder is very ET-like. I have always thought she had beautiful fingers and in proportion to her body. In the picture, it looks like she had played the Pull My Finger prank way too much. I think it an optical illusion because of the background. With a sigh of relief, I found the picture below with that same forefinger extended, and it looks normal. Now I can resume my day with a clear head.
