Gly performs as an inhibitor of 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phospate synthase (EPSP synthase), not only in plants, but also in bacteria. An inhibiting effect on EPSP synthase from intestinal microbiota has been reported, affecting mainly beneficial bacteria. To the contrary, Clostridium spp. and Salmonella strains are shown to be resistant to Gly. Consequently, researchers have suggested that Gly can cause <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/dysbiosis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dysbiosis</a>, a phenomenon which is characterised by an imbalance between beneficial and pathogenic <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/microorganisms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#microorganisms</a>. The overgrowth of bacteria such as <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/clostridia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#clostridia</a> generates high levels of noxious metabolites in the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/brain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#brain</a>, which can contribute to the development of neurological deviations.

DoomsdaysCWPlanetary electromagnetic pollution: it is time to assess its impactby Priyanka Bandara and David O CarpenterPublished December, 2018"As the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PlanetaryHealthAlliance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PlanetaryHealthAlliance</a> moves forward after a productive second annual meeting, a discussion on the rapid global proliferation of artificial <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/electromagnetic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#electromagnetic</a> fields would now be apt. The most notable is the blanket of radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation, largely microwave radiation generated for wireless communication and surveillance technologies, as mounting scientific evidence suggests that prolonged exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation has serious biological and health effects. However, public exposure regulations in most countries continue to be based on the guidelines of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection and Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, which were established in the 1990s on the belief that only acute thermal effects are hazardous. "Prevention of tissue heating by radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation is now proven to be ineffective in preventing biochemical and physiological interference. For example, acute non-thermal exposure has been shown to alter human brain metabolism by NIH scientists, electrical activity in the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/brain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#brain</a>, and systemic immune responses. Chronic exposure has been associated with increased oxidative stress and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DNADamage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DNADamage</a>, and cancer risk."Laboratory studies, including large rodent studies by the US National Toxicology Program and Ramazzini Institute of Italy, confirm these biological and health effects in vivo. As we address the threats to human health from the changing environmental conditions due to human activity, the increasing exposure to artificial electromagnetic radiation needs to be included in this discussion."Due to the exponential increase in the use of wireless personal communication devices (eg, mobile or cordless phones and WiFi or Bluetooth-enabled devices) and the infrastructure facilitating them, levels of exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation around the 1 GHz frequency band, which is mostly used for modern wireless communications, have increased from extremely low natural levels by about 1018 times. Radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation is also used for <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/radar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#radar</a>, security scanners, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SmartMeters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SmartMeters</a>, and medical equipment (<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MRI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MRI</a>, diathermy, and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/radiofrequency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#radiofrequency</a> ablation). It is plausibly the most rapidly increasing <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/anthropogenic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#anthropogenic</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/environmental" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#environmental</a> exposure since the mid-20th century, and levels will surge considerably again, as technologies like the Internet of Things and 5G add millions more radiofrequency transmitters around us."Unprecedented human exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation from conception until death has been occurring in the past two decades. Evidence of its effects on the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CNS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CNS</a>, including altered <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/neurodevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#neurodevelopment</a> and increased risk of some <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/neurodegenerative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#neurodegenerative</a> diseases, is a major concern considering the steady increase in their incidence. Evidence exists for an association between neurodevelopmental or behavioural disorders in children and exposure to wireless devices, and experimental evidence, such as the Yale finding, shows that prenatal exposure could cause structural and functional changes in the brain associated with <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ADHD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ADHD</a>-like behaviour. These findings deserve urgent attention."At the Oceania Radiofrequency Scientific Advisory Association, an independent scientific organisation, volunteering scientists have constructed the world's largest categorised online database of peer-reviewed studies on radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation and other man-made electromagnetic fields of lower frequencies. A recent evaluation of 2266 studies (including in-vitro and in-vivo studies in human, animal, and plant experimental systems and population studies) found that most studies (n=1546, 68·2%) have demonstrated significant biological or health effects associated with exposure to anthropogenic electromagnetic fields. We have published our preliminary data on radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation, which shows that 89% (216 of 242) of experimental studies that investigated oxidative stress endpoints showed significant effects.This weight of scientific evidence refutes the prominent claim that the deployment of wireless technologies poses no health risks at the currently permitted non-thermal radiofrequency exposure levels. Instead, the evidence supports the International EMF Scientist Appeal by 244 scientists from 41 countries who have published on the subject in peer-reviewed literature and collectively petitioned the WHO and the UN for immediate measures to reduce public exposure to artificial electromagnetic fields and radiation."Evidence also exists of the effects of radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation on <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/flora" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#flora</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fauna" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fauna</a>. For example, the reported global reduction in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/bees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bees</a> and other insects is plausibly linked to the increased radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation in the environment. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Honeybees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Honeybees</a> are among the species that use magnetoreception, which is sensitive to anthropogenic electromagnetic fields, for navigation."Man-made electromagnetic fields range from extremely low frequency (associated with electricity supplies and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/electrical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#electrical</a> appliances) to low, medium, high, and extremely high frequency (mostly associated with wireless communication). The potential effects of these anthropogenic electromagnetic fields on natural electromagnetic fields, such as the Schumann Resonance that controls the weather and climate, have not been properly studied. Similarly, we do not adequately understand the effects of anthropogenic radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation on other natural and man-made atmospheric components or the ionosphere. It has been widely claimed that radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation, being non-ionising radiation, does not possess enough photon energy to cause DNA damage.

Glyphosate (Gly) is the most utilised herbicide in agriculture, although its widespread use is generating controversy in the scientific world because of its probable <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/carcinogenic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#carcinogenic</a> effect on human cells. Gly performs as an inhibitor of 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phospate synthase (EPSP synthase), not only in plants, but also in bacteria. An inhibiting effect on EPSP synthase from intestinal microbiota has been reported, affecting mainly beneficial bacteria. To the contrary, Clostridium spp. and Salmonella strains are shown to be resistant to Gly. Consequently, researchers have suggested that Gly can cause dysbiosis, a phenomenon which is characterised by an imbalance between beneficial and pathogenic microorganisms. The overgrowth of bacteria such as <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/clostridia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#clostridia</a> generates high levels of noxious metabolites in the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/brain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#brain</a>, which can contribute to the development of neurological deviations. This work reviews the impact of Glyphosate-induced <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/intestinal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#intestinal</a> dysbiosis on the central nervous system, focusing on emotional, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/neurological" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#neurological</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/neurodegenerative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#neurodegenerative</a> disorders.
