Diesel Not Only Unhealthy But Can Cause Brain Damage

By: GARKO

As if it wasn’t enough that biodiesel such as ethanol sources are causing widespread starvation and food strikes now we find out that the emissions may cause brain damage!
The itsy bitsy bits of soot can travel up the nose and lodge in the brain. This has about the same effect on your brain as gunk buildup does on your car engine and they could interfere with routine brain performance and data processing.
10 male volunteers, aged 18 to 39, were told to go into in a gas chamber(?) which was then filled with tailpipe fumes from a diesel engine for a solid hour. After about half of that hour had passed, EEG brain wave patterns showed a stress response, is suggesting to researches reactive adjustments in information processing in the brain cortex.
This implies breathing contaminated air over a period of years not only results in higher potential of dying from lung cancer or disorders of the heart or lung, it probably also heighten your risk of neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease, according to this new study.
How do environmental toxins impact brain functions?
A recent bit of research discovered that the molecular toxicity of diesel exhaust leads to oxidative stress-mediated inflammation in your brain cortex. (It has been considered true for a while now that inflammation is the primary causative factor in both cardiac and systemic impairments 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 appears to be, to some degree, the culprit in diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease.
This type of pressure in the brain cortex also appears to be present in other psycho-pathological conditions for instance:
headaches
post-traumatic stress disorder
"burnout"
traumatic brain injury
The researchers found that it is primarily the beta waves that are affected, not the theta, alpha or delta waves.
What is the implication of that?
Well, here is "brain science 101" (please promise you won't go off and perform brain surgery on anyone after this short intro), your brainwaves are on a scale from the most to the least activity. Those waves referred to as beta are triggered when your brain is aroused and aggressively engaged in mental activities. These waves are the fastest of the four brainwaves.
When you are in active dialogue with someone, your brain is in beta. A debater, orator or teacher is in high beta (with the exception of McCain). Right at this moment, I hope that I have you in beta. It's certainly not a brain function you can do well without. Those engaged in the "dumbing down of America" - they would certainly want to impede your beta waves. But that is a different subject, eh?
The special photography used in the tests conducted demonstrated how the left section of the frontal cortex is shown as brighter on the test subjects that endured the diesel fuel exposure, compared to the group that did not get gassed.
They hypothesize this effect could be getting caused by the existence of nanoparticles.
What it does show is that air pollution is a serious concern that translates to complications for both your body and your brain.
If you wish to help clean the environment for your own better health and the health of your family and loved ones I have a great idea!
WATER4GAS is providing information at a low price which consumers can use at home to put together a small gizmo which instills hydrogen into the gas/air mixture that their vehicle runs on.
The process makes bite sized particles out of the particles that the engine uses as fuel. So the engine gets to use much more of the gasoline.
With WATER4GAS you can minimumly expect to improve your MPG by 30-50% or even more. Those particles "musta" been pretty "blankin'" huge in some engines before. But with W4G they are made consumable so you can improve your MPG.
It also helps make emissions significantly cleaner.
