Diesel Not Only Unhealthy But Can Cause Brain Damage – Part Three

By: GARKO

Unpleasant revelation about diesel When diesel fumes are inhaled it activates a stress response in the brain. This type of reaction might result in damaging brain damage in the long term for people that are located.
Tiny particles of soot, or nanoparticles, can enter via the nose and lodge in the brain. It is potentially true that this invasion could impede routine brain performance and data processing.
Ten male volunteers, between the ages of eighteen and thirty nine, were told to go into in a gas chamber(?) which was then filled with exhaust from a diesel engine for a solid hour. After about half of that hour had passed, EEG brain wave patterns displayed a reaction, this change in pattern suggested abnormal reactions in information processing at the cortex of the brain.
As it turns out, breathing polluted air over the long term not only elevates your risk of being afflicted with lung cancer or heart and lung disease, it possibly also heighten your risk of neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's conditions, according to this new study.
How does pollution affect brain functions?
A study recently published found that the molecular toxicity of diesel emissions byproduct creates oxidative stress-mediated inflammation in your brain cortex. (Inflammation is already considered to be the primary causative factor in both cardiac and systemic ailments from exposure to diesel fumes.)
Your brain has a high level of sensitivity to harmful effects brought on by oxidative stress.
For example, oxidative stress seems to contribute some negative impact in the causation of conditions such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease.
This kind of stress in the brain cortex is also found in various other psycho-pathological conditions for example:
headaches
post-traumatic stress disorder
the feeling known as “burnout”
concussions and such
Researchers are discovering that it is primarily the beta waves that are affected, not the theta, alpha or delta waves.
So what does that mean?
Well, here is “brain science 101” (please promise you won’t go off and perform brain surgery on anyone after this brief passage), the electronic waves in your brain range from the most activity to the least activity. Those waves referred to as beta are generated when your brain is at its most awakened and aggressively engaged in mental activities. These waves are the fastest of the four brainwaves.
If you're in active dialogue mode, you're in beta. A debater, preacher or instructor is in high beta (with the exception of Bush). Anytime you're actively engaged in your work, you're in beta. So this is definitely not a phase of brain activity you'd want to have impaired. Those engaged in the “dumbing down of America” – they might want you to have it impeded. But that is a topic for a different time and venue, eh?
In a special x-ray picture from the test it shows how the left side of the frontal cortex is lit up on the test subjects who were exposed to diesel fumes, compared to the group that did not get gassed.
They suggest this effect might be due to the presence of nanoparticles.
Bottom line is that contaminated particles from diesel and other sources in the air are a serious concern that translates to complications for both your body and your brain.
If you want to help eliminate smog for your own better health and the health of your family and loved ones there is something effective that you can do!
WATER4GAS is offering information at a low price which car owners can use in their garage or wherever to create a small gizmo which infuses hydrogen into the fuel/air mixture that their car or truck runs on.
The process makes smaller particles out of the particles that the engine uses as fuel. Because of the smaller size the system is able to use a lot more of the gas.
With WATER4GAS you can reasonably expect to lower your gasoline consumption by 30-50% or significantly more. Those particles "musta" been pretty darn big in some engines before. But with WATER4GAS they are made consumable so you can lower your gasoline consumption.
It also helps make emissions significantly cleaner.
This information has been purchased by over 9000 people already and the percentage of happy customers is about 99%! So how about you?
