New Human Trial Finds Blood Donation Removes Toxic "Forever Chemicals" | Review By Modern Healthspan

In this video we have a look at a study on Australian firefighters and whether donating blood or plasma works as a way to remove PFAS, long lived chemicals, from blood. These chemicals remain in our body for many years and we have no natural way of removing them so blood donation seems to be one way to do it.

VERIFY | Here's what donating plasma does to your antibody levels

ST. LOUIS — Bob Muenz saw a silver lining when he recovered from COVID-19: the antibodies in his blood could help other people fight the coronavirus.

He donated plasma and got a call a few weeks later. The blood bank wanted him to donate again, because his antibody count was very high.

But he had a question: would donating again reduce the number of antibodies in his blood, and would that have an effect on his ability to fight off SARS-CoV-2 if he was exposed again?

The Verify Team at 5 On Your Side spoke to a local doctor to find out.

Dr. Alex Lacasse at SSM Health St. Mary’s Hospital is an infectious disease doctor who has been treating COVID-19 patients for the last six months. He also just completed a study on plasma with the Mayo Clinic.

“The antibody level is never reduced. It stays in your system in what we call memory cells. So if, for example, you were exposed to COVID-19, the response would be, boom, instantaneous because we have those memories,” said Dr. Lacasse.

So we can verify: Donating plasma more than once will not reduce the antibody levels that protect against COVID-19.

5 Ways to avoid Forever Chemicals PFAS, PFOS, PFOA & MILLIONS More!

health No Comments »

PFAS (forever chemicals) are everywhere, literally. Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances like PFOS, PFOA & PFNA are increasingly being linked to many serious medical & mental conditions. Here is the info you need about what they are, where they come from (you won’t believe this part), and what you can do to minimize your exposure to these worrisome forever chemicals. Dupont & 3M (both owned by Vanguard Group) have known the dangers of these chemicals for decades (see article below). You CANNOT avoid these chemicals, but you can minimize your exposure..

The Toxic Legacy of 3M's 'Forever Chemicals'

health No Comments »

The fight over a tunnel project in Antwerp has revealed extraordinary levels of toxins in the water, soil, and people near 3M’s factory. While the company said this week that it will cease using or making so-called forever chemicals a few years from now, for people living near the plant, the damage has already been done. And for regulators in Europe, the battle may be just beginning.

In this episode of Bloomberg Storylines, we meet Wendy D’Hollander, who lives across the highway from the Antwerp plant. She said her entire family has high levels of 3M chemicals in their bloodstreams, and that the American company has yet to begin a promised cleanup near their home.

Researchers have made a breakthrough in how to eliminate the dangerous artificial chemicals that are all around us. Known as forever chemicals, they’ve been nearly impossible to break down and destroy — until now. Darius Mahdavi talks about what needs to happen next.

What new EPA limits on 'forever chemicals' mean for U.S. drinking water

health No Comments »

The Environmental Protection Agency says that so-called “forever chemicals,” which are harmful to human health, must be removed from U.S. drinking water. It’s a moment public health advocates have long called for as PFAS have been linked to certain cancers and birth complications. William Brangham discussed more with Melanie Benesh.

Toxic PFAS Chemicals Now Found In Contact Lenses

A new study has found that cancer-causing chemicals called PFAS have been found in all of the brands of contact lenses studied in the United States. These compounds have been linked to a variety of different, and often fatal, forms of cancer. Mike Papantonio & Farron Cousins discuss more.

A new study has found that cancer causing chemicals called PFAS have been found in all the brands of contact lenses studied in the United States. These compounds have been linked to a variety of different and often fatal forms of cancer. As you know, I tried the very first PFAS cases ever tried in this country. Tried five of them against DuPont. Then we found out 3M was making as much of this as DuPont. We’re gonna start, our firm’s starting one of the biggest case, one of the biggest trials in America is gonna be starting up in South Carolina, June. And I’ll tell you what the documents are unbelievable.
Yeah. I actually, last week on America’s Lawyer talked to attorney Wes Bowden about that particular case and it is disgusting what’s happening up there. And this is just another story because you and I have sat here and we’ve talked about PFAS chemicals for so long in so many different instances. We talked about how it’s in your cereal, it’s in your toilet paper, it’s in your wood products, your paper and now.
Baby diapers.
Diapers. Now, it’s in your contact lenses. And the eyes, obviously, in case anybody’s not aware of this, are one of the most vulnerable parts of your body. It is a direct connection to the inside of you as an organism. And we’re putting these PFAS chemicals into our eyes and we didn’t know it. And God only knows how many decades we’ve been doing it.
Let put this in perspective. Okay. If you took one drop and put that drop in an Olympic size pool, that first of all, that one drop under the standards that should be followed is too much. That one drop in Olympic size pool. Now here’s what they’re finding. 18,000 parts per million, 18,000 parts per million are being found in these contact lenses. Even the government says in the most favorable situation that 2000 parts per trillion is the acceptable level. You get the deal?
Yeah.
18,000 per million and then 2000 per trillion. And so we’re seeing this and, you know, again, science won’t react. Ah, it’s not a problem. Everybody’s overreacting. No, nobody’s overreacting. You’re putting this in your eyeballs every day, man.
Yeah. We’re gonna deal with an entire, you know, up and coming generation that’s been more exposed to this than any other generation and we’re gonna see illnesses, cancers, all sorts of things in that younger generation more so I think than we have seen in any of the others.
Oh, I don’t think there’s any question.

The Toxic Truth About Your Air Fryer (Safest Chemical Free Air Fryers)

health No Comments »

Your air fryer is toxic. I’m surprised nobody is talking about this. Most of them use a non stick teflon coating on the basket full of forever chemicals like PFAS, PFOA, PFOS. I was searching for teflon free ceramic air fryers but they also have lead and cadmium. The rabbit hole goes deep on this one. Safest material is glass, but there’s still toxins in the heating element and the body like BPA plastic. I finally found the best air fryer, safest with least amount of chemicals. Salton Flip and Cook 2-in-1 Air Fryer & Grill AF2090.

If you buy these air fryers through my affiliate links, you can make nice Bigfoot steaks.

ARE AIR FRYERS SAFE TO USE?

IS COOKING SAFE? IS HEAT SAFE? IS DEHYDRATION SAFE? ARE OVENS SAFE? ARE FATS SAFE? If you think these questions are unnecessary, then you can safely answer the question at hand.

Air Fryers are really just small-sized convection ovens (or OTGs) with a fan to circulate hot air more efficiently than in a large oven. This allows you to dehydrate the surface of foods really quickly and with very little oil. As long as you don’t char your food till it’s visibly dark brown or black all over, air-fried food is perfectly safe! Convection baking has been used by human beings since the dawn of cooking, and air fryers (despite their name) use the exact same physics of hot air transferring heat to food.

And if you are someone looking to cut down calories from fat and also like crispy textures, this appliance is perfect for you. As always, focus on what you are ultimately eating rather than the appliance.

Canada considers “forever chemicals” ban of cancer-causing agents

health No Comments »

We can’t see it but there’s a silent killer lurking in our homes. An invisible danger that is found in things we use every day – forever chemicals.

As the name implies, the cancer-causing agents are doing lasting damage to our health and the environment.

Ottawa is now looking at limiting or banning these chemicals and as Brittney Rosen reports, experts say it can’t come soon enough.
