Ruth´s last blog ..Late Earth Day Post — The Evil of GMOs

Take a look at this post I wrote last summer. It is exactly what you are hoping for.

I thought this excellent documentary was a very good introduction to the idea that something, seriously needs to be done before we have lost the 100% pure natural genetic strands of all our foods. Corn is pretty much done. So is Soy (at least in the USA). Apples? Oranges? Bananas? Tomatoes? Soon, a good ripe, home grown tomato will just be a distant memory if something isn’t done.

The contamination has started. The alarms are going off all around the world while Monsanto is ploughing ahead with considerable support from the FDA. So I feel will be looking at a grey phase of a few years until all the research results kept tightly in vaults is finally released and GMO’s are fully recognized as damaging. During this time, GMO’s could possibly contaminate every single species of our edible fauna.

So I’m guessing, now it’s time for someone to create a repository of all truly organic seeds; a kind of a DNA bank – to protect them, in order for them to be replicated and brought back to light when time is right. (this rings up Wall-E)

On a side note, somehow it makes me think that we just can’t appreciate something until it’s gone. I’m hoping we’ll be quick enough for this one.

Happy 2010 everyone

With genetically modified animals, vegetables, fruits and who knows what else how will you be able to avoid it? How will you know what a restaurant is using?

Also, given population growth globally GE food will become a critical aspect of feeding the worlds poor.

So, perhaps I should just give up and start on a robust GE food diet and just get it over with. : )

No big surprise there. Lots of post-retirement consulting jobs on the line, y’know. Not to mention that big business especially calls the shots in this arena.

GMO foods are big business’s science experiments, and the populace, especially the unsuspecting, are its guinea pigs. Actually more like the canaries in the coal mine.

The truly sad thing about GMO plants is that, even if you grow your own, your produce could still be contaminated by GMO pollen from a neighboring farm. Pandora has really opened the box this time.

Non-GMO Project and GE-Free Solutions are developing standards, and working to provide labeling to non-GE labeling. Several products are being launched this fall under the “verified [by] non-GMO Project”.

Many common foods, organic or not, cause digestive problems. Wheat causes digestive and other problems for a large percentage of the population due to the protein gluten naturally occurring in the plant. I have also seen a number of clients have problems with corn. Dairy is a biggie for GI distress too; many people can’t digest milk sugar and some can’t handle one or more milk proteins. And then there are all kinds of “organic” packaged foods that contain digestive-disturbing substances such as denatured amino acids (organic breakfast cereal) and excess refined sugar.

Soy foods (organic or not) contain trypsin inhibitors, which block protein digestion and can lead to all kinds of stomach distress.

We know from UK studies that GE foods are associated with a 50% increase in allergies, some of which may manifest as digestive disorders.

Perhaps your organic food wasn’t so organic?

Any food, organic or not, can lead to digestive disorders. Eating meals with certain people can also cause digestive disorders. It seems like it would be hard to zero in on organic foods as the culprit. Organic food is just missing chemical residue and contains more nutrients than non-organic, and of you’re comparing it to GE, it’s a different food altogether.
