Genetically Engineered Food
..."The rats fed on the GE potatoes suffered substantial damage to their immune systems, plus abnormal weight loss in various organs, including the brain, testicles and liver. Some also had abnormal growth in their intestinal cells, which could indicate a prelude to cancer. Despite a long and concerted industry campaign to discredit Pusztai, part of the results of his GE potato study were duly peer-reviewed and published in the scientific literature. However, despite the industry and scientific establishment dismissing his work, there has been little attempt made to independently repeat and confirm the study, as is usually the case in science. Pusztai has published other results of his experiments since, which raise serious question over the safety of GM foods. "....
Did you know that a company called Monsanto is out to destroy the world's food supply leaving the earth barren of food? Sound unreal doesn't it?
By genetically changing our food producer: the seed. Monsanto has found a way to re-engineer and patent corn seeds by using viruses and diseased genes that we eat so they can control the food source. They have tried patenting other seeds, but were stopped. Farmers whose crops have been contaminated by this patent seed are then sued by Monsanto for using their "patent" seeds. Monsanto plants a crop next to other farmer's crops and then Monsanto illegally trespasses onto that neighbor's land to check if any of their patented seeds blew onto that farmers land. AND OUR government sides with Monsanto because it is a patent. A patent they had gotten through our Supreme Court by a vote.
Monsanto has taken mother nature's seeds and our livelihood. Sounds unbelievable; but we were also surprised by the financial melt down in 2008. Anything is possible if you allow the thefts to have a free pass. Our government is in bed with Monsanto, just like they are in bed with Wall Street; because these corporations have hired every top government official and paid them well. You know: that government and corporation 'revolving door' where they feed off each other like parasites.
The movie: The Future of Food ( Netflix and above video) along with other movies based on this Monsanto company is an eye opener.
Although, the light that shines at the end of the tunnel allows all citizens to come together to fight back. Fighting back to keep our bodies and food sources healthy. We all must protect our food sources by not buying corn products that are produced by corporations. We should try to buy our foods from local farmers right off the vine. To buy organic foods, although more expensive, they are not under the rules of Monsanto that have no moral concerns about your health; only to produce as much unhealthy foods as possible so they can control the world's food through their patent seeds that contaminate all food; thus making it legally their crop.
