inRobotics Integrated With Human Body In Near Future? Technology Gulf Between ‘Have’ And ‘Have Nots’ Predicted By 2020 (December 8, 2008) — What is the potential future impact of robots on society? New conclusions show that the enormous automation capacity of robots and their ability to interact with humans will cause a technological imbalance over the next 12 years between those who have them and those who do not. One significant area of research may well result in the insertion of robots into our bodies, such as intelligent implants in the brain, which will improve our rational thought, and nanorobots to be released into the blood to clean our arteries. … > full story

BPA – what is it? It is a chemical modifier used in the manufacture of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. Polycarbonate plastics typically are clear and hard and have many applications, including use in certain food and beverage packaging such as water and infant bottles, as well as compact discs, impact-resistant safety equipment, and medical devices. About 7 billion pounds of BPA are produced worldwide each year.
Problems BPA causes? cardiovascular disease (coronary heart disease, heart attack, angina), diabetes, liver enzyme abnormalities, brain damage, developmental abnormalities, precancerous changes, metabolic syndrome, etc.
Why BPA causes these problems? Possibly, BPA is a hormone disruptor or modulator and causes pancreatic cells to increase insulin production.
Who is at risk? In 2007, the CDC found BPA in the urine of nearly 93% tested. This indicates widespread exposure to BPA in the US. Who has the highest levels? Children, then females, then males.
Shaklee’s response: Shaklee’s first commitment is to product safety and, as such, our product packaging is free of BPA.
