Another Small Issue With Biodiesel - By: GARKO, Posted on: 2008-05-21

Diesel causes pollution and brain damage Inhaled diesel fumes set in motion a stress reaction in the brain. This is not a normal function and it could could have harmful brain impairment in the long term in people residing in areas with high smog.
The itsy bitsy bits of soot can travel up the nose and lodge in the brain. This has about the same effect on your brain as gunk buildup does on your car engine and they could impede routine brain function and perception processing.
10 male volunteers, aged 18 to 39, were placed in a room filled with exhaust from a diesel engine for a solid hour. After about 30 minutes, EEG brain wave patterns displayed a reaction, is suggesting to researches reactive adjustments in information processing at the cortex of the brain.
As it turns out, inhaling smog over a period of years not only results in higher potential of being afflicted with lung cancer or disorders of the heart or lung, it could also increase your risk of neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's conditions, according to this new study.
How does your brain respond to contaminated particles?
A study recently published made known that the molecular toxicity of diesel exhaust fumes creates oxidative stress-mediated inflammation of the cortex area of your brain. (Inflammation is already considered to be the primary causative element in both pulmonary and systemic afflications from exposure to diesel fumes.)
Your brain has a high level of sensitivity to damage caused by oxidative stress.
For example, oxidative stress seems to have a degree of negative impact in the causation of conditions such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease.
This type of pressure in the brain cortex is also found in various other psycho-pathological conditions including:
headaches
post-traumatic stress disorder
the feeling known as "burnout"
concussions and such
Researchers are discovering that the beta waves in the test subjects in this study were significantly affected, whereas the alpha, theta, and delta waves were not influenced to any great degree.
What is the significance of that?
Well, here is a quick intro on the different wavelengths in your brain (this will not qualify you to leave here and perform brain surgery on anyone after this brief passage), your brainwaves are on a scale from the highest to the lowest amount of activity. Those waves classified as beta are activated when your brain is at its most awakened and actively engaged in mental activities. These waves are the fastest of the four brainwaves.
When you are in active conversation with someone, your brain is in beta. A lawyer, orator or teacher is in high beta (with the exception of McCain). Right at this moment, I hope that I have you in beta. It's certainly not a brain function you can do well without. Those engaged in the "dumbing down of America" - they might want you to have it impeded. But that is a topic for a different time and venue, eh?
In a special x-ray picture from the test it shows how the left side of the frontal cortex is shown as brighter on the test subjects who were exposed to diesel fumes, compared to the group that did not get gassed.
They postulate this effect might be due to the existence of nanoparticles.
Bottom line is that contaminated particles from diesel and other sources in the air are a serious concern that spells hazards for both your body and your brain.
If you want to help eliminate smog for the well being of yourself and your loved ones there is something effective that you can do!
WATER4GAS is providing information for a nominal fee which car owners can use in their garage or wherever to create a small device which instills hydrogen into the gasoline/air mixture that their car or truck runs on.
The process makes bite sized particles out of the ones that the engine uses as fuel. So the system is able to use much more of the gasoline.
By doing this you can minimumly expect to reduce your gas consumption by thirty to fifty percent or even more. Those molecules must have been pretty "blankin'" huge in some engines before. But with W4G they are made usable so you can reduce your gas consumption.
It also helps make emissions substantially cleaner.
