Chronic pesticides environmental contacts can lead to human’s multi system impairment

One of the most harmful chemicals in our environment today is pesticides they go by a variety of names like insecticides,
herbicides, fungicides and bactericides and are found in almost every public place and often in our house. Most people
are not even aware that they are exposed to these toxic substances. Pesticides are harmful and have powerful disruptor in
many organs of our body that mentioned in this letter. In reproductive system, they may disrupt the hormonal function
of reproductive system and ovarian cycle which may lead to negative effects on this system infertility and abortion during
pregnancy. In fetus, infants and growing baby pesticides have some risks during pregnancy that depends on pesticide and
the time that mother and the baby are exposed. Fetus and baby's nervous system and organs are developing rapidly and more
sensitive to the toxic effects of pesticide. Some pesticides have shown up in analyses of infant's cord blood proving that such
toxins are indeed transferred into the baby's body and can causes many problem like congenital heart diseases, musculoskeletal
defects, neural tube defects, hypospadias, cryptorchidism and endocrine disruption and also cause various degrees of physical
and mental developmental delays in growing baby. In nervous system the chief target organ of pesticides is the brain because
they seek out lipids and the brain is highly lipid. Neurotransmitters aim the brain that is responsible for numerous functions
within the mind and body. When neurotransmitters are not functioning properly then a variety of conditions developed like
Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, degeneration of the retina, autism, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, hyperactivity, insomnia or
disrupted sleep and attention deficit. In hematologic system there are some reports indicating that some pesticides can alter
the complement function, subpopulation levels, cell proliferation, cytokine secretion, surface markers, chemotactic migration,
phagocytosis, antigen presentation and apoptosis induction. In endocrine system some Pesticides have been shown to alter
thyroid gland function and reduce circulating thyroid hormones level that can compromise the catalytic activity of hepatic
cytochrome P450 mono-oxygenases resulting in an altered hepatic androgen metabolism. Malfunctioning of adrenal glands
leads to cortisole imbalance, excessive fatigue, sweeting, inability to handle stress, unstable blood sugar and electrolyte and a
variety of other debilitating symptoms.They can interrupt male sex hormone and can lead to prostate cancer. Inmusculoskeletal
system, muscle weakness, cramp and pain and loss of muscle control, impaired mobility, uncontrollable shaking and trembling.
So it is important to understand that any chemical that is designed to kill a living creature or plant, will be harmful to all living
things, we offer the use of non-toxic and healthy alternatives to kill weeds, bugs, bacteria and fungus, characterizing patterns of
exposure to the pesticides among the licensed pesticide applicators before use, take shoes off before entering the home, because
shoes pick up pesticides everywhere the person go. Avoid places where they sprayed. Ask people and offices to notify when they
use pesticides or herbicides and make sure windows are closed during the application and for a couple weeks after. Eat organic
foods. Do not live in an agriculture area and recommended to TV commercial to airplay teaching programs.
