Triclosan: Hazardous Endocrine-Disrupting Chemical Is Inside Us!
READ THE FULL ARTICLE HERE (August 27, 2014)
Some of the most obvious ones include soaps and antibacterial wipes, but you can also find it in cutting boards, toys, clothing, household furnishings, pet food dispensers, and much more.
In short, while you’re disinfecting your body and your home to keep your family safe from potentially harmful bacteria, you may actually be causing far more harm than good in the long run. Making matters worse is that there’s very little evidence that antibacterial products will actually help you avoid disease. So you’re exposing yourself to these harmful chemicals for no good reason…
Three years ago, Colgate-Palmolive responded to safety concerns brought forth by consumer groups by removing triclosan from its soap products. But the company left it in its best-selling toothpaste, Colgate Total. (Colgate Total is the only triclosan-containing toothpaste sold in the US.)
Despite the pervasive use of this chemical, troubling questions linger about its potentially harmful effects, especially for children. Research has shown that triclosan can alter hormone regulation and may interfere with fetal development. Animal studies have also raised concerns about its ability to affect fertility, and bacteria exposed to triclosan may also become resistant to antibiotics. Even an increased cancer risk has been suggested. Some animal studies showed that triclosan caused fetal bone malformations in mice and rats. Colgate claimed the findings were irrelevant. But bone deformations may hint at hormonal effects, affecting the endocrine system. There were also apparent weaknesses in Colgate’s cancer studies.
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals are a serious concern, as they can promote a wide variety of health problems, including: breast, ovarian, prostate, and testicular cancer, preterm and low birth weight babies, precocious puberty in girls, and undescended testicles in boys. According to Thomas Zoeller, a biology professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst who specializes in how chemicals affect the endocrine system, there are an estimated 800-1,000 endocrine-disrupting chemicals on the market. But triclosan is one of the top 10 used on a regular basis by most people. Subsequently, removing triclosan may have a much greater impact than removing other chemicals.
In one recent study, traces of triclosan, triclocarban, and butyl paraben were found in the urine of pregnant women and their newborns’ cord blood. The women in the study were all residents of Brooklyn, New York. This demonstrates that everyday, real-world exposure to these chemicals is indeed pervasive. Shockingly, triclosan was detected in 100 percent of all urine samples, and 51 percent of cord blood samples. Triclocarban was detected in 87 percent of the urine samples, and 23 percent of the cord blood samples. And, as reported by The Atlantic: “In another, still-unpublished study, the researchers found that all of the cord blood samples contained ‘at least one paraben,’ according to Dr. Rolf Halden, director of ASU’s Center for Environmental Security.” Paraben esters have also been found in 99 percent of breast cancer tissue samples, suggesting a strong link between the chemical and breast cancer development.

The Walls of Jericho Will Fall Again!
May 7, 1999
Man thinks they can control the atmosphere and they seed the clouds with poison. They seed the air with poison, they seed the water with poison, they seed the food with poison, even your clothes carry the poison to sicken you and you know it not. Even the detergents you use, the cosmetics, toiletries carry poisons. Even the doctor’s poison those who they are suppose to cure. The doctors now kill what I gave them the wisdom to save. Satan the god of this earth poisons you in all ways and you foolish ones do not even see what he does with the leaders of this land as your minds, bodies, spirits, and souls are poisoned.

There are many ways to kill the children now, even poisoning their food, poisoning their toys. Be not deceived, the sons of satan call this population control. It’s all part of their plan as even the air you breath is poisoned full of death and destruction and disease. But ask the new world order, those in their secret society and if they were to tell you their secrets they would tell you it’s all about population control. Only the rich shall survive. The richest of the rich, but I am confounding the enemy. Those covered in MY Son’s shed Blood at Calvary, those who call out to YAHUSHUA MASHIACH. That blood is their immunity. Keep praying, keep asking, keep reminding ME to take MY vengeance on those who spread the poison in the sky and MY vengeance shall come on those who created these formulas of death, disease and destruction (and) the politicians who allow it.
