Safe Soy? Crazy Corn?

6/14/2013

Food...........for thousands of years it has nourished us, provided or  us, and sustained us.  Growing food  has provided a livelihood for farmers for generations.  Life's dance flows through the cycle of growth, the very gift of life  growing in the plants that feeds a nation, feeds the world. 

Man's greed for control, covered under the guise of humanitarian aid  has brought real food dangerously close to extinction.  What am I talking about?  This crazy conspirator who's writing you now read?  GMO  - Genetically Modified Organisms, you know.....soy, corn, sugar beets, cotton, alfalfa, and now even salmon!   Also   known as genetically engineered.
Seeds that have been altered to withstand herbicides' &
pesticides'.  Seeds that are supposed to grow better, produce more, contain genes that aren't even those found in nature.  Making animals raised for food better, man's way of improving on what God has given us.  Improving? Safe?  Really?

A recent study by the Institute of Health and Environmental Research in Kensington Park, Australia found that pigs feed GMO
corn and  GMO soy showed noticeably higher stomach inflammation.  The  pigs studied were from commercial Iowa piggery's.  The United States is one of the leading users of genetically engineered products.  Think about it.....most
food that is consumed, commercially prepared, has genetically modified substances in them.  

Welcome to the world of MAN. 

The FDA (Food & Drug Administration) that oversees the  'safe' product sold for human and animal consumption now have just closed their  comment period for AquAdvantage Salmon developed by Aqua Bounty Technologies.  Welcome your new,
GMO Salmon - soon to hit a market near you!  

No discussion or blog would be complete without a familiar
name.  Monsanto.  Monsanto has a product called glyphosate, better known as Roundup.  Roundup Ready crops were approved by the US Department of Agriculture in 2005, this broad-spectrum herbicide ties up the nutrient access to the plant rather than killing unwanted plants. Now that is what you want to eat right? 
Roundup ready Soy and Corn!  That's right! Seeds changed genetically to include Roundup in its very  nature, it's ability to tolerate Roundup.  Sounds yummy doesn't it?  

Dr. Huber, in a 2011 letter to the Secretary of Agriculture, was
concerned with the effect of Roundup Ready crops on the environment.  Bringing up the "first micro-fungus ever  identified........ " .......continuing  with "strong evidence that this infectious agent promotes diseases of both  plants and mammals."  Further writing that high concentrations were found in 'soybean meal, corn, distillers meal, pig stomach contents, pig and cattle placentas, and fermentation feed  products.'

Not only is GMO becoming a problem in our food chain, we
now have a growing epidemic of 'Super Weeds'. Weeds that are developing a resistance to glyphosate, used on GMO crops. 
Rootworms are also developing a resistance to GM corn in Iowa &
Illinois. Consider this as well.  Monsanto has finally
acknowledged the bollworm pest in BT Cotton in India, also developing a  resistance. 



Genetically modified........man's attempt to change what was not a
problem, instead making a problem that we may not be able to fix if we continue
on this path.


So, you tell me, is soy safe?
