A San Francisco based, synthetic biohacker group has made hundreds of headlines for creating cheese without the use of cows. Young biohackerspace people from BioCurious and CounterCultureLabs make up the group. They beat out 243 other groups to take first place at this year’s iGEM “jamboree” competition. iGEM stands for international genetically engineered machine. The winner’s […]
Main ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide glyphosate labeled probably carcinogenic
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), a division of the World Health Organization, issued a report about the carcinogenicity of five different herbicides and insecticides, including glyphosate the main ingredient in Monsanto’s herbicide Roundup. Experts representing 11 countries met in Lyons, France to do a comprehensive review of 15 different peer reviewed studies […]
Absolute Danger Of Genetically Modified Foods
Chinese researchers have found small pieces of ribonucleic acid (RNA) in the blood and organs of humans who eat rice. The Nanjing University-based team showed that this genetic material will bind to proteins in human liver cells and influence the uptake of cholesterol from the blood. The type of RNA in question is called microRNA, […]
GM Crops – Farmer To Farmer (video)
Michael Hart, a conventional livestock family farmer, has been farming in Cornwall for nearly thirty years and has actively campaigned on behalf of family farmers for over fifteen years, travelling extensively in Europe, India, Canada and the USA. In this short documentary he investigates the reality of farming genetically modified crops in the USA ten […]
The Dangers Of A High Soy Diet
If you were to carefully review the thousands of studies published on soy, I strongly believe you would reach the same conclusion as I have-which is, the risks of consuming unfermented soy products FAR outweigh any benefits. Notice I said unfermented soy products. For centuries, Asian people have been consuming fermented soy products such as […]
Genetically modified cows produce ‘Human milk’
Babies beware! GMOs are in baby formula and other foods sold in the United States. A Federal Drug Administration fact sheet confirmed Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) ingredients, either soy or milk from cows injected with GMO hormones in baby formula. Some also contain corn syrup with GMOs. Cereals can contain ingredients like GE (Genetically Engineered) […]
GMO in baby formula
Milk or soy protein is the basis of most infant formulas. The secret ingredients in these products are often soy, or milk from cows injected with rbGH. Many brands also add GMO-derived corn syrup, corn syrup solids, or soy lecithin. For the infant that is unable to nurse, formula is the next best choice. But […]
19 Studies Link GMO Foods to Organ Disruption
A new paper demonstrates that consuming genetically modified (GM) food leads to significant organ disruptions in rats and mice. Researchers reviewed data from 19 studies and found that parameters including blood and urine biochemistry and organ weights were significantly disrupted in the GM-fed animals. According to the Institute for Responsble Technology: “The GM soybean and […]
