What’s the link between Obesity and Plastic Pollution
Due to Plastic Pollution gene responsible for Obesity is growing in the body, forcing people to eat more.
Global obesity has tripled since 1975. Because of this, obesity has now become an epidemic. Currently, more than 40 million children in the world are obese or have gained a lot of weight. At the same time, the weight of 200 crore adults has also increased. This information recently appeared in Global Research.
It will also affect generations to come
Health and medicine have not yet accepted a toxic substance called “obesity”, but recent research has shown that obesity affects the way the body controls weight. Scientists have said what’s worrying is that some of the chemical effects that cause weight gain can change how genes work and become heritable, so the effects can be passed onto future generations.
Scientists claim that the effects of chemical pollution dissolved in the air will continue to be visible for generations to come.
Pollutants cited by researchers as drivers of obesity include bisphenol A (BPA), which is widely found in plastics, along with some pesticides, flame retardants and air pollution. It affects genes and forces them to eat more. The obese paradigm focuses on this and provides data showing that these chemicals are rapidly increasing obesity in countries around the world due to pollution.
Side effects of DDT still present
Researchers say that the side effect of the pesticide DDT in the form of obesity was seen in women of that time. Now that DDT has been banned, DDT is indirectly the cause of obesity in grandchildren and granddaughters of the same women.
