I’ve been trying to answer you question for like an hour using my limited understanding of cancer, viruses, and long term, low dose, chemical exposure. Honestly I’m not a biologist or anything so I really don’t have an answer either the most I can say on the matter is that these problems are really not compatible. The way you “target” a cancer cell, or “target” a virus, or target chemicals are whole different and don’t really share anything in common. I can also say that BPA is more a problem of long term, low dose exposure that we don’t really expect to see a realistic end to anytime soon. You can target it in the body, but we are going to keep being exposed to it for years to come, even if there is a ban on it. The oceans are full of it, the waterways are full of it. Much of the world is already contaminated with it.
I appreciate you trying to answer, that’s exactly why I’m asking these questions. We can’t give up and just say it’s no use. I know someone in healthcare and they said 20 year olds are coming in with unbelievable pain in huge numbers and not getting any help. We need to ask these huge questions, knowing that we don’t have the answer right now. Then we can go in like you did and say, well we can do it with cancer and viruses, but the mechanisms aren’t the same. How could we approach it with plastic? We have these bacteria that are working within the environment, how can we do the same thing safely with everyone’s bodies? Also, we have to get the chemical companies to stop poisoning us so more isn’t added in at every minute. We have to start somewhere.
