The benefits of breast milk have long been appreciated, but now scientists at Duke University Medical Center have described a unique property that makes mother’s milk better than infant formula in protecting infants from infections and illnesses. The finding, published in the August issue of the journal Current Nutrition & Food Science, explains how breast milk, […]
Brazil: Glyphosate found in over 80% of breast milk samples
“The presence of glyphosate in breast milk indicates direct contamination by this agro-toxin,” said researcher Inacio Pereira Lima. The glyphosate that has been detected in Brazilian women’s breast milk is largely from the spraying of GM glyphosate-tolerant soy. Over 80 percent of breast milk samples examined in a recent study in Urucui, Brazil were found […]
Babies Fed Soy-Based Formula Have Changes In Reproductive System Tissues
Infants who consumed soy-based formula as newborns had differences in some reproductive-system cells and tissues, compared to those who used cow-milk formula or were breastfed, according to a new study. The researchers say the differences, measured in the months after birth, were subtle and not a cause for alarm, but reflect a need to further […]
Edible Food Packaging Made From Milk Proteins
At the grocery store, most foods — meats, breads, cheeses, snacks — come wrapped in plastic packaging. Not only does this create a lot of non-recyclable, non-biodegradable waste, but thin plastic films are not great at preventing spoilage. And some plastics are suspected of leaching potentially harmful compounds into food. To address these issues, scientists […]
Genetically Engineered Soybeans Given To Goats Altered Milk and Stunted Offspring
Pregnant goats fed with genetically engineered (GE) soybeans have offspring who grow more slowly and are shorter, according to a new Italian study. Publishing in the journal of Small Ruminant Research, the researchers were testing the results of supplementing the feed of female goats with Roundup Ready GE soybeans. Roundup Ready soybeans are engineered to […]
Is Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Plant Causing Cancer In Toledo?
Could a Davis-Besse nuclear power plant that has been shut down before for non-radioactive leaks be the cause of cancer in portions of the northwest Ohio, including Toledo. Davis-Besse nuclear reactor (power plant) is located on Lake Erie in Oak Harbor, Ohio, 20 miles east of Toledo. The reactor has been plagued with accidents and violations, […]
Genetically engineered crops, glyphosate and the deterioration of health in the United States of America
Is rising glyphosate use responsible for increases in modern diseases? Claire Robinson looks at the latest study to raise the question Is the rise in glyphosate use since the advent of GM crops responsible for the rapid deterioration of health in the US in the last 20 years? A new study by former US Navy […]
Documented effects of glyphosate and its pathways to modern diseases
Documented effects of glyphosate and its ability to induce disease, show that glyphosate is the “textbook example” of exogenous semiotic entropy: the disruption of homeostasis by environmental toxins. Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup®, is the most popular herbicide used worldwide. The industry asserts it is minimally toxic to humans, but here we argue otherwise. […]
Synthetic Vegan Cheese from Human DNA Strands Coming Soon?
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 […]
RADIATION DANGER from the FUKUSHIMA NUCLEAR PLANT DISASTER in Japan settling on the WEST COAST OF UNITED STATES
Be Careful of ANYTHING you consume that originates from the WEST COAST of America and Hawaii. When Radiation Fallout descends from the atmosphere and settles in an environment,it contaminates the Land, Sea, Air and Water for many hundreds or thousands of years.RADIOACTIVITY bio-magnifies and can be internally emitted in humans and animals by ingested food […]
