>>21054480Oh, yeah, ofcourse. This just one aspect that i think doen't get the attention it deserves. Understand, that if everyone has kids in their 40s, that will lead to the degradation of the collective human genome. This could literally end us.
That being said, sure, things like hormones in our food (testosterone and estrogen is used to make livestock grow bigger, most of it degrades when cooked, but not all of it), xenoestrogens in plastic which seep out if you resue a waterbottle or leave it for too long, mutagenic substance used for foodcoloring (Et-Br is something we use to measure DNA because it binds to it and fluoresces under UV was commonly used as red food coloring), petrol smoke in the city and near roads, microplastics, various solvents used in construction and consumer goods... these all effect DNA either via the genome or the epigenome... And don't even get me started on the shit doctors prescribe for no fucking reason.
My job is to invent medications and diagnostic methods but these retards misuse the hell out of them for profit. Fuck i hate the healthcare industry.
