Toxic pesticides being sprayed on airline passengers. (NaturalHealth365) Have you ever felt sick after flying, only to assume it’s jetlag or a virus you picked up from another passenger?
Well, think again! You might have been exposed to an insecticide, pesticides or other toxic chemicals – deliberately used by airline staff.

[1] Chemical Banned Nearly 30 Years Ago Linked to Parkinson’s Disease. By Julie Fidler | Natural Society A new study links a pesticide (organochlorine pesticides) used by farmers (until it was banned for commercial sale in the U.S. in 1988) to the development of Parkinson’s disease in people who were exposed to it.
Earlier studies found a link between the neurodegenerative disorder that affects motor neurons in the brain and the consumption of dairy products, but there was little evidence as to how milk, cheese, and other dairy products might increase a person’s risk for Parkinson’s. Scientists hypothesized that chemicals in cows’ milk might be responsible. EPA Intentionally “Fudged The Numbers” To Make Poisonous DOW Chemical Appear Safe. Photo: Wikimedia Commons A recent report from the Chicago Tribune revealed that the US Environmental Protection Agency intentionally obfuscated data and changed their own standards so they could allow an unsafe chemical made by DOW to get an acceptable rating.
After the EPA approved the chemical, a number of environmental groups including the Center for Food Safety and Earthjustice quickly sued the agency, forcing them to retract their approval several months later.
Roundup’s Lesser-Known Cousin Is Coming to a Farm Near You. Pick Again: Pesticide-Laden Fruit Found To Cause Infertility. Organic food IS better, even if just for the reason that it means reduced consumption of pesticides, and in effect, better hormone balance.

Chan School of Public Health in Boston conducted a study on the pesticide contaminants found on fresh fruit, they found that the residue left on both fruits and vegetables is lowering sperm counts. For the study, researchers used the USDA Pesticide Data Program to determine which out of over 30 different types of fresh fruits and vegetables had the most pesticide residue.

Monsanto Loses GMO Permit In Mexico – Judge Sides With The Bees. The 15 Cleanest and 12 Most Pesticide-Laden Produce of 2014. Mike Barrett | NaturalSociety | 30th April 2014 It is no secret that conventional produce is soaked with health- and environmentally-hazardous pesticides.
Unless you’re going organic, every fruit and vegetable you buy comes with a dose of poisonous chemicals, though not all produce suffers from the same level of toxicity. This is why the Environmental Working Group releases a list of the 12 most pesticide-laden fruit and vegetables every year, along with the 15 cleanest. Now the organization released the 2014 version of it’s ‘Shopper’s Guide to Pesticide in Produce’. Pesticide exposure is a major concern today.
7 Dodgy Food Practices Banned in Europe But Just Fine Here. Last week, the European Commission voted to place a two-year moratorium on most uses of neonicotinoid pesticides, on the suspicion that they're contributing to the global crisis in honeybee health (a topic I've touched on here, here, here, and here).
Since then, several people have asked me whether Europe's move might inspire the US Environmental Protection Agency to make a similar move—currently, neonics are widely used in several of our most prevalent crops, including corn, soy, cotton, and wheat.
