I read this article in the Daily Mail today with growing horror.

I have come across a lady on the internet with weird and frightening health issues that she believes are related to nanotechnology.

As I keep saying - man meddles with what he does not know...............

Revealed: The toxic nanoparticles with asbestos-like properties found in everyday goods

By Arthur Martin

Last updated at 9:57 AM on 12th November 2008

Tiny particles used to make common goods have similar properties to asbestos and could be highly dangerous, experts are warning.

Others are more toxic than bleach and have the potential to cripple the country

This is some of the most ridiculous paranoid nonsense I have ever read.

This is some of the most ridiculous paranoid nonsense I have ever read.

Why do you think it is paranoid? People are becoming very concerned about the long- term effects of different drugs, about GM foods - truth is we haven't a clue what is going on half the time or what effect any of these new technologies are having on us.

If they didn't feel that there were aspects to be concerned about, I am sure they would not have arranged for a commission to be set up to look into it.

We have been told for years that amalgam fillings were totally fine. Ask Rachel, she will soon enlighten you as to the truth of that!

For years Asbestos was thought to be harmless until it was proved otherwise. Thousands of people have died because of the stuff. Nanotechnology can affect not just thousands, but millions.

This nanotechnology is used in creams and lotions - it is absorbed into the skin. What is it doing once it gets in there - where does it go?

Don't be too dismissive - it might just prove to be one of the most dangerous things man has ever done - and he has a 'brilliant' track record of creating dangerous things!

I think I have read that they actually have stopped some products because of these concerns.

I always wondered how this underwear worked, now I know.

Siver is very bacteriostatic, they use it in wound dressings and on PVK and CVK's.

There are infrared clothing items with laser-cut nanoparticles of certain lengts to reflect infrared light of the right wevelenghts . Open Original Shared Link

Tthese seem to work fine, and several cfs patients who have been bedridden have been able to live an almost normal life (gleaned from a forum, not something the company has posted)

Dont think "nanoparticles" can be dangerous? We human beings are "nanoparticles" compared to the size of the earth and look how we are mucking up our planet. ;)

      It is more likely code for “we think there really was a good response to the treatment, but it was small or in a small percent of subjects so it would take a large clinical trial to try to prove it.”

      Celiac symptoms

      By Dana0207 · Posted

      Thank you so much for your replies. Luckily the rash went away when I completely swore off gluten. It took several months but I have not had a flare in months. So a biopsy is no longer possible. The itch was terrible and apart from bleaching my skin the steroid lotions and potions did nothing. The Gliadin is for accidents and shall be a part of my travel kit from now on. This past exposure has made a me a little leery about eating anything that was not cooked in my kitchen or a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. As much as I used to love baked goods, I am cured and have become quite the gluten free baker to the point that friends and family forget that my cakes/cookies/and bread are not "real". I guess I will have to wait for the new blood test to come out to get confirmation but I have a suspicion that the rash was dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      Celiac symptoms

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
