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, […]
Obama Promises to Label GMOs
While on the campaign trail in 2007, Barack Obama promised to label GMO foods if elected. Now’s the time! Today an estimated 80% of processed foods contain GMOs.

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 […]
Discovery of Bt insecticide in human blood proves GMO toxin a threat to human health study finds
A new study out of the University of Sherbrooke, Canada, recently found Bt toxin, a component of certain genetically-modified (GM) crops, in human blood samples for the first time. Set to be published in the peer-reviewed journal Reproductive Toxicology the new study shreds the false notion that Bt is broken down by the digestive system, […]
