living in modern times. And like everything, there are negative things that come with it. And with all of these lovely things that we have available to us, at our disposal comes these risks. So that doesn't mean we don't enjoy them. That means we're smart about making sure we're minimizing the risks from them.

So airing out your furniture or mattress or your car or doing whatever it is when you get a new one, I think is a very good idea.

Yeah, I mean, I think that's pretty well documented that particularly the two and a half fine particle mass exposures

increase the risk of plaque rupture and and uh heart attack or stroke like specifically right um that's not even taking into account all the other pollutants that you're being exposed to in that situation you know the the benzene and dioxin and all the the kind of like plastic burn offs from the the industrial part of it as well too but that that part's actually well known you know you you have that exposure you're going to have an increased risk

There's actually two specific mechanisms in which an environmental toxin can accelerate an inflammatory or autoimmune response. The first is they represent an oxidative injury. They're essentially depleting the antioxidant reservoir, this defense wall that we have built up against things like this.

And when you deplete that wall to the point that it's no longer present, you get direct tissue damage. And the direct tissue damage will actually ignite the immune system in an inflammatory direction. Second way is that environmental toxins can actually bind to human tissue. And this was a study that was done by my dad and formed something called the neoantigen.

That means a new antigen or a new target for the immune system. So essentially, It changes the structure of your own protein to the point that your body doesn't identify it anymore as you and therefore starts attacking it directly. So there's the indirect mechanism and there's the direct mechanism of inducing inflammation and autoimmunity.
