Chemicals used in agricultural and industrial manufacturing used for decades have led to a large number of Americans developing Parkinson’s Disease, NBC is now shining a light on it.

The Mayo Clinic says “Parkinson’s disease is a movement disorder of the nervous system that worsens over time.” The symptoms start out small and hardly noticeable, but continue to get worse and worse overtime. Symptoms include:

  • Tremors
  • Slowed movement
  • Rigid muscles
  • Poot posture and balance
  • Loss of autonomous movements
  • Changes in speech and writing
  • Depression and anxiety
  • Trouble sleeping
  • Absent-mindedness

In the U.S., there is something called the “Parkinson’s Belt” which stretches across the sunbelt and rustbelt states.

As cases of this disease continue to climb, scientists are studying more for answers and are determining that the use of pesticides and other toxic chemicals are the cause.

Dr. Tim Greenamyre, director of the Pittsburgh Institute for Neurodegenerative diseases, had been conducting lab studies on the pesticide Rotenone, which is believed to be a contributing factor in the disease. After years of study he too developed Parkinson’s and he believes it was because of his overexposure to the chemical while studying it.

“My guess is that my laboratory work with making a model of Parkinson’s disease lead to my getting Parkinson’s disease,” he told NBC.

Daily Mail also reported:


Beginning in the 1990’s, Dr Greenmyre began to see investigating this chemical. In 2011, a study found that farmers who used rotenone had a 2.5 times higher risk of developing Parkinson’s disease than those who didn’t. 

In 2000, Dr Greenmyre and his team published a study in Nature that showed how injecting rotenone into rats caused them to develop problems moving within three months. 

At nine months, the chemical had caused changes in their brains that was similar to what you’d see in a human Parkinson’s patient. 

Sometimes, in studying the chemical, it would get on his gloves, Dr Greenmyre recalled in the journal Science in 2023. This exposure would come back to him when he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2021, suspecting a link to his research. 

‘The irony is obvious,’ Dr Greenmyre said.  

In response, the EPA restricted the use of rotenone twice, and it’s no longer available for purchase by home gardeners. Still, with some red tape, it is available for use, and the EPA said there is ‘insufficient evidence’ to link the chemical to Parkinson’s. 


AUTHOR COMMENTARY

Proverbs 26:2 As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come.

Dweedle dee, dweedle duh! Of course it’s the chemicals and pesticides that are killing people slowly. And yet if you speak this obvious truth then you and I get labeled as “conspiracy theorists” – unless the mainstream media says it, then it’s accepted as “truth.”

This country spends the most money annually on healthcare than anyone else in the world, not even close, and yet we have the sickest people by far, not even close either. Meanwhile, other countries ban the use of these chemicals, pesticides, heavy metals, etc., and they are significantly healthier, smarter, are more lively, and live longer and fuller lives. This isn’t rocket science.


[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
