'If you see it on Oprah or on her site, then you know it's big news. Several weeks ago in Oprah's Health Newsletter, the leading article was about a recent study from Montreal, here in Canada which reported on the fact that children with higher levels of pesticide (organophosphates) metabolites in their urine were twice as likely to develop ADHD as those children with undetectable levels of these chemical bi-products.
Every ten fold increase in organophosphate breakdown products related to a 55 to 72% increase in risk to ADHD. The source of these chemicals? Pesticides and insecticides used on your food or (and shame on you if you're doing this) spraying lawns and gardens to 'look pretty'. Ugh. Remember these chemicals stay in the soil and affect soil and water systems for a VERY long time. In fact some of these poisons can take up to a century to degrade! And your children and pets are much smaller and far more affected (the negative effects are much more lethal in smaller body weights) than a fully grown adult, who makes all these decisions. Their ability to detoxify and defend themselves from these poisons is a great deal less than your ability.'
