A legitimate use for orlistat?
Cosmic pizza grease returns! But maybe this time to positive effect. The question is, are you willing to produce a little (maybe a lot) of cosmic pizza grease of your own to rid yourself of polychlorinated biphenyls, dioxins, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane and other organochlorine pollutants?
In my daily romp through the medical literature I came upon a paper in the Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry that answered a question I’ve been pondering on for a while? How can we get rid of the almost ungetridable pesticides and industrial pollutants that we all have stored in our tissues?
Organochlorine pesticides (DDT, lindane, etc), organochlorine and organobromine industrial pollutants, solvents, placticizers, and a host of other such substances are in the stored fat of all of us. Their use over the previous decades has so filled our environment with these chemicals that we can’t escape them. The are in the air, they fall in the rain, they are in the groundwater. Consequently, they are in our food. Whenever we eat, we get a load of these persistent organic pollutants (POPs) that make their way into our fat cells and cells in other tissues. And they build up because we can’t get rid of them.
