As my body starts to properly caffeinate in the mornings, I usually sit in front of a laptop and do whatever it is writers do to put off writing (such as checking emails and boxscores) until I'm warmed up. As a computer warms up, particles inside start to fly and some catch a ride on dust. For years, I breathed polybrominated diphenyl ethers from my laptop. These compounds are flame
retardants, nearly universally used in couch cushions, televisions, cars and carpets. PBDEs have similar chemical structures to thyroid hormones, and, according to lab tests, they can lower our bodies' production of the real thing. Hypothyroidism causes fatigue, depression, anxiety, hair loss and a waning libido. Women with low thyroid are five times more likely to have children with IQs that qualify them as mildly retarded, according to one study. A 2005 experiment found a single low dose of a common PDBE given to rats in utero resulted in hyperactive rodents with low sperm counts. Contemplating my future as a fat, bald, edgy, and dim witted bachelor isn't necessarily cause for concern. Still, a generation's lacking aesthetics and sex drive is a wicked tradeoff for the low combustion factors of our workspaces, homes and vehicles
Want to feel happier? Then smile, eat seaweed, get a new hairstyle, sendfewer emails, go dancing, spend less money - and don't just pop pills. Or sosays one of the country's most eminent scientists. In a controversial newbook, Professor Jane Plant, a chief scientific adviser to the government,proposes a raft of unorthodox treatments for the millions of Britons whosuffer from anxiety, stress and depression. Instead of just popping 'happypills' such as Prozac to beat the blues, Plant and her co-author, JanetStephenson, advise people to take steps such as avoiding dairy products,sending fewer text messages, eating porridge at night and playing cardgames. They say all their tips are based on hard scientific evidence . . .There are many other applications of psychedelic psychotherapy, such as ibogaine, or ayahuasca for the treatment of substance abuse. Largenumbers of people could benefit from psychedelics such as entheogens,introducing people to spiritual experiences, reducing pain and suffering dueto isolation, by the irresistible realisation that each of us is a small part ofsomething much greater than any of us, that separateness is an illusion,there is nothing to fear, and love is accessible, shame can be left behind.Rites of passage, responsibly organised, could benefit everyone . . .In a series of experiments, Vohs and her colleagues found ways to getpeople to think about money without explicitly telling them to do so . . . Ineach case, those who had been led to think about money – let's call them"the money group" – behaved differently from those who had not. Trivialreminders of money made a surprisingly large difference. For example,where the control group would offer to spend an average of 42 minuteshelping someone with a task, those primed to think about money offeredonly 25 minutes. Similarly, when someone pretending to be anotherparticipant in the experiment asked for help, the money group spent onlyhalf as much time helping her. When asked to make a donation from theirearnings, the money group gave just a little over half as much . . .The heavy metal arsenic, which occurs naturally as an element of theEarth's crust, has a long history as an instrument of murder. The notoriousBorgia family of Italy, including Pope Alexander VI, is said to have used thetasteless, colorless, and odorless substance to regularly dispatch enemies,and even a despot of Napoleon Bonaparte's stature may have fallen victimto an orchestrated overdose. More recently, scientists have proved thatchronic exposure to drinking water contaminated with arsenic can causecancers of the bladder, lung, kidney, and skin, as well as a collection ofother diseases. Now there's a new twist. Research published today in theJournal of the American Medical Association has linked the ancient poison totype 2 diabetes, a disease that has reached pandemic proportions and nowaccounts for 1 in every 10 American dollars spent on healthcare. And traceamounts of naturally occurring arsenic seem to be contributing to theproblem — and endangering some Americans without their knowledge . . .A regular walk or swim could help keep Alzheimer's at bay, research shows.Exercising for two and a half hours a week was found to boost memory inthose at risk of dementia. Although the improvement was small, theAustralian researchers say any delay in the onset of the disease, whichaffects 700,000 Britons, could have a massive impact.I recommend the following products:
