How long can we live? Can we try to live extra-long by learning from the extra old? Old people, old communities, old trees? There are a large number of studies out now about commonalities for longevity—healthy food, healthy lifestyle, healthy attitude, but, of course, the Radicle Thinker is wondering why no one seems to have factored in that most people who are now old, i.e. over 80, had the advantages of modern medicine without the disadvantages of steadily increasing exposures to an ever-growing variety of environmental pollutants. We are now bombarded with toxics, with increasing evidence that they are accumulating in our bodies and are especially harmful to children in their formative years.
We are personally polluted—polluted with micro- and nano-plastics, glyphosate (the active ingredient in RoundUp), NeoNics, and who knows what all else. We don’t have a clue about how much our bodies can handle. Depending on who did the research, we may or may not be crashing under the influences and entering a drugs, pesticides, and plastics induced crisis of cancers, Alzheimer’s, autism, Parkinson’s, ADHD, addictions, obesity, pandemics . . .
Yes, it’s a lot. It’s scary, and, whether you believe all of this or not, why take a chance? There are easy steps you can take to reduce your exposure and most of them have other great benefits such as saving money and reducing stress. For example, at the very least, why not stop putting poisons on your yard? What amount of emerald carpet lawn can be worth the risk? The 100% chemical-free alternative (learn how here!) is not only healthier for you, your kids, and your pets, but it’s also healthier for the environment, reduces anxieties, and is 100% full of beauty and joy. Go organic, go nature-based—you might just live a lot longer—go for a PRFCT 100!
