Heat Shock Protein Hsp27 points to causal link between BPA and cancer & chemotherapy resistance
NOTE: This is a case study using a new precision paradigm on how to assess risks of environmental chemicals by reliance on the pharmaceutical development process and its science. More about that new paradigm at: Precision evaluation of environmental chemical risk assessment The development of a cancer’s resistance to chemotherapy has become a disheartening and […]
Precision evaluation of environmental chemical risk assessment: Using existing pharmaceutical evaluation results as a more accurate paradigm
The PharmBlocker: A new paradigm in assessing the risks of environmental chemicals PharmBlocker: An environmental chemical which acts on the identical cellular process as a pharmaceutical, but in a manner that decreases the effectiveness of the drug therapy. In plain words: If a substance is causal enough to investigate as a pharmaceutical, then it is […]
The Hallmarks of Cancer in a Nutshell
The “Hallmarks of Cancer” were described for the first time in 2008 (and updated in 2011), as the subject of a landmark paper written by research scientists Douglas Hanahan and Robert A. Weinberg and published in the prestigious scientific journal Cell. The 2008 “Hallmarks of Cancer” paper defined six rules of interlocking processes that fed […]
This is why you need to be concerned about tiny doses of environmental chemicals like BPA
NOTE: this article is extracted directly from: “Key UCSF Medical School Committee Approves Stealth Syndromes Study.” (Caution: 110 footnotes ahead) INTRODUCTION The human health effects of low-level concentrations of certain Chemicals of Emerging Concern (CECs) has stirred immense controversy between traditional toxicologists and a more recent, emerging body of scientists grounded in […]
Key UCSF Medical School Committee Approves Stealth Syndromes Study
The Committee on Human Research (CHR) at the University of San Francisco Medical School has approved the Stealth Syndromes experimental protocol. This study approves Stealth Syndromes co-founder Lewis Perdue’s protocol to determine if standard clinical blood tests can be used to detect physiological changes that may be caused by the absorption of environmental chemicals, including […]
How “The Population Bomb” bombed & Paul Ehrlich Primed People For Climate Change Skepticism
UPDATE: An article in the New York Times today — The Unrealized Horrors of Population Explosion — resonated with a piece I wrote on April 5 of this year about the way that Paul Ehrlich’s over-the-top catastrophe predictions laid the foundations for public skepticism on climate change. My original article begins below. Paul Ehrlich […]
Retracted Studies Show The System Is Working – But Not For Regulatory “Science”
The recent NY Times article on “Retracted Scientific Studies” shows that the system of peer review, transparency and reproducibility are working to keep the best science honest. But the system fails miserably when it comes to regulatory science affecting American public health. Public health suffers because nearly every study the federal government accepts for evaluating […]
From “Epidemic” to “Syndromes” – Why The Name Change?
In the beginning, Becca Yeamans-Irwin and I (Biographies) began with the idea of a book which would be based solidly on peer-reviewed, published science and which could be easily understood by a non-scientist. As we studied, absorbed, curated, summarized and wrote about thousands of peer-reviewed studies, the book took second place to a more involved […]
More Than “Yuck Factor”: Recycled Wastewater May Not Be Such A Good Idea For Toilet-To-Tap & Irrigation.
The current rush to highly treated recycled municipal wastewater in its present state is plagued by serious unknowns that are far more serious than the “yuck factor.” Indeed, recycled wastewater has been deemed safe by advocates for its use despite the absence of scientific proof. No peer-reviewed, published, independent, third-party investigations conducted to NIH standards […]
