GMO FACT #1 – “genetically modified ORGANISM (GMOs) are food you eat such as corn and soy that were manipulated in a laboratory by forcing DNA from a completely foreign species into them. If this doesn’t scare you, I don’t know what will. Furthermore, this foreign DNA may include virus, bacteria such as e coli bacteria, an insect, an animal or even humans resulting in traits that would be virtually impossible to obtain with natural processes. 75% of the processed food in the US is GMO. While 50 other countries require labeling of GMOs, the US prevents us from labeling GMOs.” – Pamm Larry (non-GMO Activist)
What we need to know is companies like monsanto who manipulate our foods, go against nature – aren’t doing any safety studies to show the LONG TERM effects that GMO can have on our environment and within our bodies! It’s completely insane… Time and time again they will tell you it’s safe and that they are working on “solving the food crisis.” These are all lies and propaganda… The FDA allows companies like Monsanto to be able to produce food that is hazardous to our health and they don’t have to label it as GMO… So ask yourself, is that tomatoe your eating; is that non-GMO? Is that seedless watermelon your eating good for you? I don’t put myself our my family at risk. These are the questions we SHOULD be asking ourselves because it’s about our health, it’s about the health of our families and ultimately it’s about our health as a country and world.
What’s even more interesting in this whole ordeal is that Michael Taylor, former VP and attorney for the biggest GMO Company, Monsanto, is now the Deputy Commissioner at the FDA. Many other former Monsanto executives are now in the FDA and USDA. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is a former Monsanto attorney. FDA chose to disregard strong warnings of FDA scientists and allowed GMOs in our food supply without any health studies or even labeling. Monsanto gives generous campaign contributions and uses heavy lobbying to politicians. It’s a revolving door Government that we have.
DO YOU THINK IT’S OK THAT THE PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES, FOOD COMPANIES OR OTHER INDURSTRIAL COMPANIES HAVE REPRESENTIVES WORKING FOR CONGRESS PROTECTING THE INTERESTS OF THOSE COMPANIES. It’s called a CONFLICT OF INTEREST…. And, this sort of revolving door politics happens all of the time. SO, me personally, I opt out. I choose the high road instead of the low road. I choose to eat only organic food. I avoid anything processed, anything with soy, I avoid eating corn because my health is my number one priority but more importantly I don’t want to support an industry who cares nothing for my health.
BUY ORGANIC, KNOW YOUR LOCAL FARMERS AND SUPPORT THE ONES WHO DO THINGS NATURALLY…
