145: TEST RESULTS! ***SHARE THIS WITH EVERYONE!***

Whether or not you have children, this should be a concern for our country’s health and future….and it’s up to us to take action! In Today’s BOK, I’m sharing test results from school lunch samples that show high levels of heavy metals, glyphosate, pesticides, and nutrient deficiencies.

Nutrient testing

Heavy metal testing

About The Testing:

The primary testing was conducted at Health Research Institute Laboratories in Fairfield, Iowa.

More info:

Thiabendazole (TBZ) - present in 12 of the 43 samples (27.9%), was found at 176.28 ppb on a green apple and 34.99 ppb on a red apple. TBZ has immunosuppressive effects. A 2021 study concluded that "TBZ, MSG, and BB negatively affect hematological parameters and innate and humoral immune functions, and inflammatory responses. TBZ achieved the maximal negative impacts, followed by food additive MSG and BB. 

Piperonal Butoxide (PBO) - present in 18 of the 43 samples ( 41%), up to 41.96 ppb in a hamburger. It is a developmental toxin or teratogen that can cause structural malformations including inhibition of the development of specific parts of the brain and forelimb and facial development. A 2019 study points out that a critical mechanism of action is to inhibit an essential developmental signaling pathway.

Pyrimethanil was detected at 595.04 ppb on an apple. A 2018 study on Pyrimethanil indicates that it produces thyroid follicular cell tumors in rats and upregulates hepatic thyroid hormone metabolism, which may be responsible for thyroid tumorigenesis (Hurlety, 1998).
