On 13 April 2016 Mother Jones News reported: A new paper in the peer-reviewed journal Nature Communications adds to a disturbing body of evidence that fungicides might be doing more than just killing fungi. For the study, a team of University of North Carolina Neuroscience Center researchers led by Mark Zylka subjected mouse cortical neuron cultures -- which are similar in cellular and molecular terms to the human brain -- to 294 chemicals 'commonly found in the environment and on food.' The idea was to see whether any of them triggered changes that mimicked patterns found in brain samples from people with autism, advanced age, and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. Eight chemicals fit the bill, the researchers found. Of them, the two most widely used are from a relatively new class of fungicides called 'quinone outside inhibitors,' which have surged in use since being introduced in US farm fields in the early 2000s: pyraclostrobin and trifloxystrobin. Global Good News service views this news as the failure of modern health and environment systems. Such 'flops' highlight the need for more intelligent, evolutionary, Natural Law based, life-supporting systems.
