So it looks like there's just less children being born. And that could be for a whole number of reasons. Right? Are people not able to have kids? Are they choosing not to have kids? I would almost argue that it's the fact that people are not able to have kids when you correlate that with the fact that sperm counts have declined by 50% worldwide. That is absolutely astonishing.

We're not at the point yet where humans will go extinct. But if we continue on this path and don't make changes, which there are many ways that we can make changes, dann schauen wir vielleicht auf einen Verlust der Bevölkerung.

You would think, right? In Europe, the European Commission has a much better system of regulating chemicals. So they require upfront chemical testing depending on the amount that is produced. So chemical manufacturers need to provide data. So they have to fund these studies, these laboratory studies.

They have to fund them and provide this package of information to the European Chemicals Agency or ECHA. Once they do that, then based on the amount that they're producing, you have to give more information. You have to have more testing. Such that if you're producing several metric tons of a chemical, you've got to do a whole bunch of studies to really prove that it is safe.

Not only for people, but also animals and the environment. That it's not going to be something that is persistent, that builds up, that can't be broken down. die sich akkumulieren, denn das ist das, was wir jetzt mit diesen Chemikalien sehen. Und das ist wirklich das Problem, dass sie nicht zerfallen, sie gehen nicht weg, sie verschwinden nicht. Also was passiert dann?

Es disruptiert im Grunde die gesamte Ökosysteme des Planeten. Und wir sind nicht davon verbunden, richtig? Wir sind verbunden mit dem Ökosystem, wir relyingen darauf. Also, wenn wir von der Sicht der Chemikalien-Testung nach vorne schauen, dann ist das absolut etwas, was wir tun sollten. Aber niemand mandiert das wirklich, außer in Europa.

I think we've got a different relationship between the government and with industry. I think there is a lack of regulations, a lack of requirements for toxicity testing, combined with the lack of corporate responsibility.

So a lot of these manufacturers don't want to have to foot the bill and pay millions of dollars to have testing only to show that this chemical that they are so excited and in love with can't be used because it's toxic.

Ich hoffe es nicht, aber es sieht so aus. Und es ist einfach so, dass dieses ganze System nicht aufgestellt ist, um Konsumenten und das Umfeld zu schützen, zumindest in den USA.

Well, I fell down a rabbit hole of research and I had to pick myself up and say, hey, you know what, I'm going to take matters into my own hands. I'm going outside of the route that I thought I was supposed to go down, the mainstream route. So I kind of went, I went sideways a little bit and I went with integrative and functional medicine. And so I went looking for the root cause.
