Hi.

Great beginning of the day to you, and I would like to take this moment to thank Frank and Lorraine for all their devoted time, effort and compassion that they bring in into bringing us these tools and information.

Thank you, Frank and Lorraine and everyone that stands behind them.

So one of the greatest cause of illness is environmental pollution. So not only from our environmental toxins, but also toxic chemicals that are breaking down our immune system and making us susceptible to all disease. The World Health Organization says there have are the president's cancer panel report found that we are currently using over eighty thousand toxic chemicals in our daily lives. So right inside our home and outside our home, several hundred of these have been tested and few have already been found to known be known to cause cancer. The University of Illinois Center for Cancer Department has issued a warning to the stark rise of cancers in children. They state that unborn babies are exposed to toxins in utero. The University of Texas, Anderson Cancer Center reported tests of umbilical cord.

And there they found nearly 300 pollutants in the umbilical cord, such as flame retardants that you find in household dust and pesticides.

Such chemicals have also resulted in other childhood diseases, bipolar, autism and over 20 other common diseases that they're finding now in children. How do we find these chemicals in utero beginning in the late 1970s? There have been reports linking pesticides to leukemia in children. A 1987 study by the National Canceled Cancer Institute showed that children living in pesticide treated homes had nearly a four time chance of developing leukemia.

Now, if they lived in a house where you sprayed out in the garden and in the lawn, it increased that chance by six and a half times. Also, herbicides are considered pesticides. So if you're spraying for herbicide outside to kill your weeds, you're getting that same toxicity as a pesticide.

The National Cancer Institute reported the Common Law and Pesticide. Two 4-D has been shown to increase lymphatic cancer in farmers. They also found that Florida pesticide sprayers had nearly three times the risk of developing one cancer and two times the risk of developing brain cancer.

So what are these farmers and Florida growers spraying pesticides on? I'm going to have audience involvement. What are they spraying the pesticides on crops and food. Exactly. Our food, our produce, our crops. So not only are they getting the incidence of pesticide exposure when we're buying these this food, if we're not cleaning it properly, we're getting that same risk of what they're spraying.
