however, the research has now revealed that even a 10-minute exposure at a high concentration was lethal to the nerve cells.
Before I get too worried, I would like to see what concentrations they are talking about. I remember the Saccahrin cancer scare. Someone once told me that the doseages they gave the lab rats was 100,000 times greater than anything available in the market, thus making the eventual negative claims seem not so spectacular.

I think neuritic growth is highly sensitive to environmental and chemical changes that occur. The blood-brain barrier exists to prevent damage or disruption of the delicate system that is the human brain, but it's not perfect.

I don't know about the brain damage but it messes my skin up bad. I use only natural products that use other mild surfactants in its place.

The ability of MIT to cause neurotoxicity has been studied," McEwen said. In animals exposed to MIT, there has been no hint of neuro-damage, because MIT affects only the cells it touches and there is no way for it to get into the bloodstream and go to the brain, he said.
"It can't get to your brain cells, period," he emphasized.

I can't say that this stuff will cause brain damage but I can say that industry spokespeople are NOT to be believed.

Regardless of the ability to simply absorb any of these chemicals (and thus induce some possibility of neuronal complications), I do worry somewhat about the excessive residues which are no doubt plaguing our water supplies at this point. Should we fret?
Yet another argument against immortality -- the longer you live, the greater propensity towards illness from environmental factors.
