hormones in the drinking water

smoothielove

Did anyone else hear on the news about hormones and other steroids and drugs being found in drinking water? I guess its being excreted out through urine (very small amounts that are not absorbed by the body of coarse) and then it does not get filtered out at the waste plant (or whatever that place is called) and it is also not purified out at water purifying places (they also don’t check the water for drugs) So now they are finding hormones in the drinking water and ocean water. In the ocean the birth control hormone is causing problems for male fish. They are being found with female parts and something else i can’t remember probably something about problems reproducing. One lady came on saying the small amounts that are found in the drinking water shouldnt effect humans. Anyway did anyone else hear about this?

I heard about that too and it’s awful! What sucks is that we’re so industrialized and people go to a “doctor” and complain about everything and just take a pill to fix it. Our bodies don’t absorb everything so it passes through us and we flush it. (People also flush pills and stuff when it expires.) I’m sorry but our ancestors didn’t have these issues. Oh wait, they ate better, and didn’t sit on their butts all day. Maybe we should try that. =O Wow… what an idea.
