Yeah, industrial chemicals for agriculture. So let's look at just one category, organophosphate pesticides, okay?

If you measure the body load of pregnant women and measure the level of organophosphate pesticides, and you look at the IQ of children born to women with the top level of organophosphate pesticides compared to women with the lowest level of organophosphate pesticides, and you iron out statistically all the differences in weight and ethnicity, things of this nature, just look at organophosphate pesticide levels, highest levels, top 10% of women,

seven-point drop in the IQ of the children, and they never get it back. So in utero, the body is being saturated with neurotoxins, so it isn't any surprise the brain does not develop properly when exposed to neurotoxins. So I said before that I'm focused on PFAS, viscidinols, and phthalates.

You've got to focus on the pesticides, particularly organophosphate pesticides are probably the worst of all of them. Whether you've got chlorinated pesticides are problematic in many other categories.

So there's actually some really good news here because there are some very simple things we can do that have huge impact on our toxicity. The first thing we want to do is detox the garden. So I recommend that everybody get, have their doctor measure a laboratory test called GGTP. So GGTP is a liver enzyme that in the past was measured to determine the percentage of hepatitis.

Because a person has inflammation in the liver, they start leaking liver enzymes into their blood, and you measure the enzymes in the blood and say, ah, hepatitis. They stopped using GGT for hepatitis because other tests were found to be more reliable than GGT was reacting to other things.

So it turns out within the quote normal range, 10 to 50, depending on the lab, GGT goes up in proportion to toxic load. And as you detoxify, GGT goes down. So I mentioned that Corporate Wellness Program I did. So I measured my GTT then, and it was 27. And I thought that was okay, because I saw the research saying, once it's 30, you have an eightfold increased risk for diabetes.
