Andrew Olaharski Quotations

We really don't know if human consumption of that chemical is dangerous per se, so it's premature to say. We don't move on taking it out of the food stores yet. Further studies are necessary to identify the ultimate outcomes.

No one should be worried that if you're drinking more soda or eating more muffins you're going to die an earlier death.

It is important to identify how they can alter these epigenetic processes and not just DNA. I actually think they do realize this and are going this way, so what I want to hopefully come out of this is better testing and better regulation of these types of compounds to which we are exposed.

For the epigenetic processes, these are much more dynamic than DNA, and just as important because this is what controls what is being expressed and what is being repressed. Because of that, any type of toxicant in the environment that interacts with these processes can affect disease outcome.

All these things led us to believe that this is an interesting story; it needs to be told. We don't know what the exact ramifications in humans are. It's certainly interesting that other people should be aware.
