Whose Drugs Are You Taking? Everybody's Is The Correct Answer! © By Lena Sanchez What if you don't need heart medication and you are getting it anyway? How about blood pressure medication? Maybe birth control? Prozac? Think about the consequences! If you are have an ongoing illness and drinking or bathing in unfiltered tap water, that could be your problem! Side effect from medications, especially when not prescribed can be a death sentence! If you are drinking or bathing in tap water you are more than likely getting prescriptions given someone else and you won't ever know it! The pharmacist isn't messing up nor your doctor, read on and see what prescriptions you are really taking! A 2000 U.S. government analysis showed the nations waterways are awash in chemicals used in beauty aids, medications, cleaners, and foods. Among the substances found were caffeine, contraceptives, painkillers, insect repellent, perfumes, and nicotine. How much? All they know for sure it’s unacceptable levels! 2008 latest studies find it's much worse with no relief in sight for our waterways? Scientists say the problem is that these substances largely escape regulation and defy municipal wastewater treatment facilities. All the long-term effects of exposure are still unclear and there are not many studies being done to find out. The few studies that have been published are not good news! Compounds of all kinds, and more being added daily, are sold on supermarket shelves and found in virtually every medicine cabinet and broom closet as well as at farms and factories. And they are flushed or rinsed down the drain every day. "But," researchers warn, "They do not disappear or break up, . Having worked in medical offices for twenty plus years I can attest that tons of medications go down the drain... We were taught to flush outdated medications down the toilet. We all assume our government local, federal and state will have something to clean our water. Boy what ostriches we are, sticking our heads in the sand! I can only regret my actions of contributing to the problem and now know that was not smart and I pass that on to every office I come in contact with. New laws in the early '90's were supposed to take care of that but habit still rules in a huge number of offices. Not a pretty thought! This is the first generation to be raised with such horrendous chemical dangers and we still do not know the whole affect that is being put upon us. My grandmother always said, "Better to be safe than sorry." I thought she was just old but you know she was smarter than I gave her credit for. Now it's my turn to pass on the wisdom gained by age. But at least I have lived to age because my childhood was free of the poisons that my children and grandchildren have been and are subjected to daily! Are you and everyone in your family going to be so lucky? Not unless you watch what goes into and on your body! Just because government says it's good for us doesn't make it so! A study, from the Journal of Brain Research Vol. 784, 1998, indicates that low levels of fluoride in the drinking water of animals - equal to the amount of fluoride found in fluorinated water systems- causes damage to brain tissue, similar to the pathological changes found in humans with Alzheimer¹s and other severe forms of dementia. Do you know what is coming out of your tap and shower? Do you care? You should answer yes to both of those questions but I am totally aware that some of you have the idea "Well I'm going to die of something anyway!" How about dying of "old Age" wouldn't that be better? Why hurry to die younger? Because it's easy to do nothing and let others make your decisions. Dying younger than necessary is a sad commentary for the laziness of our world! Be an activist in your life and the lives of your family and friends. On May 26, 2003 the E.P.A. released another report saying that our water systems are antiquated and tracking water pollution is impossible, and there is no money to fix the problem even if they had the technology to do it, which is doubtful at best! They went on to say that our water protection systems are decades old and not working very well. August 10, 2004 a report out of London England stated; "Prozac found in drinking water." So world wide is being bombarded by some one else's' drugs in the water!
March of 2008
several water studies found that drugs were even more prevalent in more
water supplies than originally thought. Lakes, rivers and streams
contain prescription drugs all over the world... Sadly the city water
filtration plants haven't the capacity to remove them and therefore the
water becomes more contaminated. Now our government officials will tell
you that amount is so small as to not affect you. Of course they have to
say that in order to prevent panic and make excuses for not making it
necessary to change that fact.
