			<description><![CDATA[Street level, Yes, yes! Even twenty years ago, very few people in their 80's were getting sick - now it's every age. And the doctors say, "Oh, you're at that age now!" Or, the ever so popular, "It's genetic!" It's not age-related when you're 35 and IT'S NOT GENETIC - cause food allergies, autism, alzheimer, etc. are NOT IN YOUR GENES. It's called poisoning - plain and simple. The brainwashing is so widespread, but those of us who know the truth will continue to share - this was not happening 10, 20, 30 years ago.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Duster ~ Perhaps the reason San Joaquin Valley is so heavily laced with selenium is that "they" are spraying the bajeezus out of us. The so called "geo-engineerin g" is out of control and killing us all. And for those of you who continue to believe those lines in the sky are simply contrails, well - much love to you. Our skies have changed dramatically over the last 18 months - leaving us with a persistent milky-hazed sky. Research Chemtrails and aluminum, strontium, selenium increases in our water and soil. Stop the chemtrail spraying.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Barbara K ~ I've been recovering for almost 3 years as well. It's tough, but we can do it. Luckily, we figured out that our food was poisoning us and all we can do is spread the word to others. No longer will I allow them to poison me or the ones I love. You know in your heart what's right for your body - not the government - and you're finding health, Barbara. Blessings to all.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[In the early years of the 20th Century, Upton sinclair's book 'the Jungle' written about conditions of meat processing in the chicago stockyards turned many people's stomachs and led to rules about sanitary processing of food. It is time the Nation looked again at what is going on in the food industry (food should not be combined with 'industry' IMHO) and made some new rules. Burpee did 'genetic modification' of plants-he just did it the natural way by selective hybridization. GMO by Monsanto blends things from different organisms that are never found combined in nature.I buy organic and grow a garden-very small-and sprout for greens. so far my health is fairly good.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Joana Rojas: As stated in an earlier post: Wheat does not contain GMOs. GMOs can be found in: Alfalfa, canola, corn, cotton, papaya, soy, sugar beets, zucchini, and yellow summer squash. Wheat has been heavily "hybridized" over the last several decades to increase yield and lots of folks are becoming allergic to the new breed. Hybridized is not changing the DNA of the seed as is done with GMOs.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[pernsey. Thank you for the information. I was reading up on Graviola some of the sites. They mentioned some of the side effects. How much do you take, and have you felt any problems? I am thinking about using it too, because as you advance in years....(sound s much better than as you get older?) your chances of getting cancer may increase.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Check out the natural anti-inflammato ry (topical only) analgesic, Emu oil... from Australia also. But I see the main problem of 'modern' Western medicine is that it primarily attempts to treat symptoms rather than doing sufficient research on CAUSES. This is particularly evident in the case of Osteo-arthritis . Tons of pain killers (especially NSaids ), but still no idea how to stop the progress of this --presumably auto-immune-- disease which is so prevalent. (Maybe no money in it for the drug companies?)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ X Dane I am so happy the prickly pear has worked for you also. The graviola you can get online at swanson vitamins or puritan pride. Graviola is also known as soursop, they do sell soursop juice in Amazon. I am taking the graviola currently as a preventative measure, and I pray it also helps your friend X Dane.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I have a lactose and wheat sensitivity - have had the wheat sensitivity since birth - non-celiac - but I've noticed that my wheat sensitivity has been growing worse in the last few years also. I'm also now more sensitive to other foods, such as celery. All 3 foods give me intense gut problems, such as diarrhea, bloating, and gas. I'm really wondering how much the GMOs have to do with especially the wheat, as wheat is in so many things.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[happycamper690. I respect that you are a scientist and that you are not worried about GMOs, but,,,,,,The foods should be labeled so we can CHOSE. Proposition 37 was not well written and didn't really make sense. Nevertheless I voted for it because it is a beginning and it can and SHOULD be improved. But I want to know.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ericlipps: I am never going to be in support of more testing on our primate cousins. GMOs make Monsanto and others so many multimillions.. .of course they will pay 'scientists' to support the myths of safety that line their pockets and overseas bank accts. Toxicology needs to be a required course in 9th grade. Then again in 12th, jsut before graduation. It is a start. As for these mad GMOs, get them out of our food supply!! What about the thousands and thousands and thousands of kids suddenly on the 'spectrum?']]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hopefully, the trend of counter-suing Monsanto will beat them on their own turf. The more discouraging news is that they (try to) buy all seed producers, so there would be nothing left but gmo seeds. The Norwegian government did collect all known seeds though, see Svalbard Spitsbergen seed vault here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2006/jun/19/food.environment]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Vermont Grandma, Im sorry I wrote the last few notes hurredly, I saw a nopalea commercial and decided to do some research I needed to get off of Ibprofin. As I did some research I realized you can buy stronger nopal juice for less money then the brand I saw the commercial on TV for. The more I googled nopal and prickly pear the more I realized this was the answer I was looking for. Within 2 weeks I was walking almost normally as my arthritis wasnt bothering much anymore, and I started resuming my life. I started to drop a few pounds and I realized my blood sugar and pressure was going down too. It did for me, everything it said it would do. I wish you well and please if you see extrodinary cures in your shamans Apprentice book, please do share! I would love to hear about different natural cures as Im sure many in here would also.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Vermont Grandma, do some google searches on Prickly pear and graviola, they are things you can buy relatively inexpensively and without any side effects. I implore anyone please check it out for yourselves and if you are currently on meds to make sure you talk to your doctor first, before taking natural herbs or juices. Natural cures are strong and effective make sure your being wise about it.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I know because my doctor wanted me on all those meds but I decided to go natural, this juice brought my body back to normal and I dont need the other meds. I feel great and I can walk again, my arthritis had me almost crippled. So I guess that makes me my source. I absolutely dont recommend the prickly pear juice while your on your meds because it can make your blood pressure go down to low. Im not a doctor or a health care professional, but I am someone who looks for alternatives to mainstream medications that can prove to be not good for you in the long run. I was supposed to be on high blood pressure meds, diabetes special diet I was finding impossible to stay on, and I would be in a wheelchair right now had I kept popping IBprofin as an antiinflammator y, which I know isnt good for my organs and didnt really help. Please do your own research, dont just take my word for it. My goal is to make people look things up for themselves. You may find theres things out there that you never knew about that might be better then the prescribed meds. Im just hoping people wake up that there may be an alternative to chemical meds.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Duster, Only part of toxicity is dose related. Depending on the design of each chemical produced in the natural world, toxicity can vary from parts per thousand to parts per billion (one drop in an Olympic-size swimming pool). The natural world is one of integrated design across complementary species. Selenium levels in the San Joaquim valley are more related to the destruction of the First Nation 3-Dimensional polyculture orchards (White-oak etc) which held the same quantities of selenium in one million times the biomass than 2-D 'agriculture' (Latin 'field'). Ecological history forms species/nutrien t interactions & chemical tolerance relationships formed over thousands of years. Design isn't haphazard in the natural world. Once a toxic exposure to a particularly susceptible person has occurred, given multiple chemical & energy (eg electro-magneti c fields or radiation) exposures simultaneously, then the body may not regain its equilibrium. About 20% of today's population has sensitivities, reactions, allergies, asthmas & illness-inducin g to life-threatenin g intolerances etc. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/structure/6-holistic-science]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Why are only some people capable of understanding such matters as the GMO danger, or at least of questioning "authority"? The prop 37 defeat in California, although a close vote, still tells us that the public is composed of many bimbos, stupids, people who haven't the foggiest idea about analysis, as in getting and understanding information. This is what the public schools have wrought, regardless of their funding shortfall. Shut up, sit still, and wait for the bell before you go to the bathroom.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Duster, Are you just becoming aware about the issue of corporate money advantage & government control? Proponents weren't complacent, just simply out financed 45 million$ GMO to 5 million$ Right-to-know. It takes millions of dollars to be effectively heard in media. There was tremendous resistance even getting the issue on the California ballot which involved decades of unpaid work. The amazing selfless work on behalf of thousands of life-conscious natural-scienti sts to get the 'right-to-know' issue on the ballot represents a huge unpaid national debt. Complacent consumers who don't question what they are buying or what the consequences to themselves or to the world as well as corporations willing to do anything for the money have put all of humanity & all of life in jeopardy. This life-denying economy creates complexities "too involved for a voter to understand." The problem is 'artificial-sci ence' which contrary to the premise of science itself, references only to itself rather than the physical properties & relationships as does 'natural-scienc e'. We all know we have systematic problems, but blaming those who are contributing to solutions. https://sites.google.com/site/indigenecommunity/home/9-undoing-false-science]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The point us this: we have a right to know if our food has GMO ingredients, so that we can choose to not be part of this great experiment we are currently part of. Prop 37 did not ban GMOs; it simply required labeling. Or, another way to put an end to all this is to legislate that organisms are not patentable, and make it retroactive. Agribusiness would instantly lose interest in this endeavor.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[For Monsanto and the drug companies its all about the money. They may disguise it under the guise of health, but make no mistake...with them...its always only about the money! Drug companies are for profit, not for health. Some things they promote help, some hurt more then they help, but as long as doctors will promote the stuff and people will take it thinking it will make them better the drug companies will be raking it in. I dont know how some of the leaders of these companies can sleep at night knowing they could be helping people and choosing not to reveal it, for the sake of money. We all need money to live, I get that, but when money becomes more important then human life, let me put it another way...more important then a grandmother, grandfather, mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, sisters or brothers life it becomes disgusting. Please stop blindly trusting...chec k into things for yourself. I found the fruit of a cactus (prickly pear juice) replaced high blood pressure meds, diabetes meds, and arthritis meds. Please do your homework people the chemical laiden cures they peddle are actually slowly killing our major organs. I also got off of Ibprofin because the prickly pear juice has anti inflamatory properties also. Eat 100% organic and do some research on natural cures, your body will thank you. Im still fighting my way towards health in some areas, but I got a lot of my life back by taking natural cures without any side effects.]]></description>

We also know the same happens to dogs and cats - any pet who is feed GMO's cobbled into foods to act as pesticides. GI issues not only begin, they proliferate and self sustain.

			<description><![CDATA[To my knowledge, we just do not know the short term or long term affects of consuming meat, milk or eggs that are produced by feeding GMO grain. We do know that certain chemical families have far reaching health consequences. We do know that it is nealy impossible to find any non-Roundup Ready corn or soybeans. We do know that Monsanto and others have spent incredible sums of money rigging the system in their favor. We do know that the same players are actively engaged in taking over the entire production apparatus outside of the U.S. in places like India. The challenge in this area may be more significant than any nuclear or global warming threat. It is the consequence of letting corporate American take over. The public or national interest is not present. Only self interest.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ http://www.amazonbioenergetics.com/reports-graviola-hsi.htm dovelane here is some information about graviola...take from it what you will. I would definitely look into graviola to work in conjunction with mainstream cancer treatments. Doctors are not paid to promote natural cures, they are paid to promote synthetic ones. I try to pass along this information to everyone I can, you never know who knows someone that has cancer and could benefit from this hidden research. I wish I knew more about these natural treatments in the mid 90's when my mom was diagnosed with cancer. Its a horrible thing to go through or watch a family member go through, if this can give life to someone else or a family member back, then I feel its my duty to share what I have found out and researched. I do believe in God and I believe the cures He made are so much better then the synthetic chemical laiden cures that the drug companies make. Natural cures actually promote health in your major organs where as synthetics usually cause damage to them.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Ironically, but probably not coincidentally, this appears to be another case of "Shoot first, aim later." Why am I not surprised. Given Monsantos background in chemicals that cause death and destruction (agent orange, for instance,) I am not surprised with their involvement in this area of "ingenuity." I read in another article on this site that the richer 1% are building large bunkers to isolate themselves from the consequences of the coming climate change problems. It would not surprise me at all if Monsanto's true intent was to decrease the population by a few million or more. After all, what's a few million here or there when the world population is 7 billion or so. As long as the money keeps rolling in, why should they care? If you want to change their behavior, their pocketbook needs to take a beating. Hard to do with as much money as they have at their command. At some point in time, we, the people, need to learn what they are selling, and stop buying it. And that's hard to do when what they sell ends up in so many other products.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Sex uses recombinant DNA. GMOs have new genes inserted to provide new characteristics and patentability. You would never for example breed a maize plant that carried the natural ability to generate an insecticide found in another plant in any reasonable amount of time. However, that said, bacteria do this all the time. They scavenge DNA from other bacteria, from free-floating bits, from viruses and test it. In that sense, we're all GMOs (search on virus genes in human DNA if you doubt). You're right about where the focus should be.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ While I can sympathize, the above assertion is so profoundly wrong, it is dangerous. Toxins are produced throughout the natural world - by plants, by animals, by fungi and bacteria. Not all of them are toxic to all other life forms. Some biological compounds are absolutely necessary to your health but will kill you outright in over large does. Vitamin A is an example. Nearly your entire environment is the same. Some is necessary and too much is deadly. Copper, selenium and zinc, all natural elements are also critical to good health and also seriously toxic. Water in parts of the San Joaquin Valley in California is so heavily laced with selenium that parents are warned not to let their children drink it. It is not there due to agriculture. If it is not wheat that causes the trouble, then try 100% organic wheat. No pesticides at all, and none used on the land where the crop was grown for several years.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[dusty and mendobruce, here's the deal: Monsanto makes Roundup and also a GMO called "Roundup Resistant Corn". When Roundup is sprayed on Roundup Resistant Corn fields it kills everything except the corn. The Roundup is absorbed by all the vegetation however, so the mice in the study (and possibly you) are eating Roundup. It stays in the soil, so you can't rotate crops. Nutrients in the soil are depleted, and chemical fertilizers are used extensively. This system does nothing to help the planet or the people on it -- it simply enables large-scale corporate farming and huge profits for Monsanto. As an organic gardener for over 30 years I assure you that there are effective and sustainable ways to farm that don't require poisons and chemical fertilizers. 'Organic' isn't anything new or mysterious -- it's the way the Earth works. Monsanto is doing serious damage to our ecosystem.]]></description>

I've seen a food activist speaking of having successfully turned Monsanto away from the wheat in this country. Now that doesn't mean that conventionally farmed wheat using pesticides is a good thing, it certainly isn't and there are other problems besides pesticides, there's the fertilizers too which can be animal by-products even, (not talking manure here). Eating organic is the only thing that will protect you from the hidden agenda of the food industry and Monsanto et al. I was terribly disappointed by the failure of Prop 37 this election in CA. Monsanto poured mega bucks into defeating it. It would have forced the food industry to label all foods that contained GMO.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The thing about all of this that just irritates the snot out of me is IT'S ABOUT THE MONEY. Not about people or health, but the almighty buck. To me this is sickening, so basically they are saying poisoning people is ok as long as we can make a profit, but when we cant make a profit thats when they put a stop to it...really? Honestly you have to take charge of your own health, go natural, do your research. I just read about a natural supplement called graviola, it kills cancer cells 10,000 times faster then chemo, and it only attacks cancer cells not healthy ones. Do you know why its not being given by doctors to cancer patients? The reason is because pharmaceutical companies cant patent a natural cure, they have to make a synthetic that they can manufacture in order to get a patent. You can purchase graviola relatively inexpensively and it kills cancer cells. They did a 7 year study and then killed it because they couldnt synthetically make it and chose not to make the results of their test public. So this could have saved thousands of lives, but because they cant make money you wont hear about it. Scientists, drug companies, and doctors are paid to tell you that chemical treatments are better then natural. They arent, if your doctor says theirs no cure for something, just consider their maybe a cure just not one that hes paid by drug companies to tell you about. Eat organic, and do research on natural cures dont just take a so called professionals word for it.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[hc690, Science isn't a thing in itself but a process of determining truth through forming of hypothesis through noted observation, impartial testing of key assumptions, double-blind testing in a system of peer-reviewed studies repeated many times, making longitudinal studies over time-periods adequate to establish ecological history under diverse environments & employing the Precautionary principle which puts the burden of proof upon the instigators to prove the innocence & efficacy of their invention. Please read the key study by Gilles-Eric Seralini et al 'Long term toxicity of a Roundup herbicide and a Roundup-toleran t genetically modiﬁed maize'. This report, a first longitudinal study of its kind on GMO's was only accepted & released in August 2012 just before the California vote. Monsanto-Dow studies give no indication of carcinogenic, mutagenic or teratogenic CMT effects over time & across generations. Seralini et al study is the first to make peer-reviewed CMT over significant time periods & across generations.

			<description><![CDATA[Dusty, You rightly identify issues of scientist objectivity considering economic dependencies. 'Principle-of-P recaution' puts the onus upon companies & researchers wishing to infest food supplies with DNA GMO alternations which have no previous ecological-hist ory to establish such long term studies safely without exposing the biosphere to potential DNA contamination. Monsanto has not followed the Precautionary-P rinciple, relying upon short-term less-than single generational studies. As a result Monsanto-Dow studies give no indication of carcinogenic, mutagenic or teratogenic CMT effects over time & across generations. Gilles-Eric Seralini's study: 'Long term toxicity of a Roundup herbicide and a Roundup-toleran t genetically modiﬁed maize' only accepted & released in August 2012 just before the California vote in France are the first to make peer-reviewed CMT over significant time periods & across generations.

			<description><![CDATA[Well I am also a scientist and for sure one should not trust scientists just because they are the current priests of the dominant church. Scientists are smart but just as driven by emotion and greed as non scientists. The first test showing problems with GMo potatoes was in the early 90's. The lead scientist, highly regarded Dr. Putzai, published the results showing serious problems with the digestive systems of rats feed the potatoes. He was fired and turned into a pariah. Every study performed by labs that do not have a financial interest in GMO's shows serious problems. That's just the effect on consumers of GMO's. How about the destruction of farmers because of higher costs and lower yields; the development of super bugs; the spreading of GMO genes to non GMO crops and wild plants; the effect on bees and other pollinators and much more.]]></description>

How about asleep-at-the-w heel giant - two different things! If you, or anyone you know, knows anyone in Washington State, PLEASE PASS THIS ON to them.

			<description><![CDATA[I spent some time working on the several proposition campaigns up for a vote in the just concluded California election. When people asked me about Prop 37 I told them that I honestly don't know about the pluses or minuses of GMOs but that I believe that we have a right to know if GMOs are in products that we might buy so we can make an informed decision. Forthe opponents to say, "If people are informed then they might not buy a product because of GMOs." is to deny people the right to information. Informed voters making decisions is the bedrock strength of democracy --- secrecy and promoted self interest of corporations is not.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I care to differ a bit with hc690 when he writes that "most scientists argue that concerns about GMOs are unfounded. Genetic modification using recombinant DNA is a technique that does not alter food in any meaningful way." This is a quote from Science, I am a subscriber and have it in front of me as I type and while the quote is taken from the Science article it doesn't ask the question of how many of the scientists were involved, if they have patents and are making money off GMOs or if they work for GMO companies. There also is no citation of any survey of "Most Scientists" that tells how many most is of population of scientists, who conducted the survey and who paid for it and so forth. More, it seems as though plant biologists and people in genetic engineering may be taking care of their incomes and may not be objective. It is interesting that this article came just before the election and was used by opponents to discredit Prop 37.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I have no clue how "most scientists" can come to the conclusion "that concerns about GMOs are unfounded" without doing any research or study at all. Recombining DNA is a sloppy procedure, usually fatal. When you do get what you're looking for you don't know what else came with it. And when you're dealing with the "roundup ready" crops you have to factor in the effect of the herbicide on the plants and the soil (it's a chelator and locks up minerals making the crops nutrient deficient).We need LONG TERM INDEPENDENT studies done FIRST.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The methods chosen to declare GMOs "safe" are the methods designed to get negative results whenever possible - epidemiological studies. Let's just do a little scenario to illustrate... If I invented a thing called a "gun", which had never been seen before, and, under controlled conditions (of course) shot twenty people in the gut, and 10 of them died, there would be "no conclusive evidence" that shooting someone with a gun kills them. This type of study is also patently inappropriate for something that causes long-term effects, especially if the study is done early on. If an epidemiological study had been done on cigarettes ten years after they were introduced, there would have been "no conclusive results." Most scientists have only a poor, barely functional understanding of statistics, and they just accept what they are told is the standard of evidence. A few have stood up to say otherwise, but the money is always behind the status quo, which is, "Make money now, ask questions later."]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Well Happy, you're right, I disagree with you. I'll go back to my standing argument that despite what any scientist may say, I doubt there is a single one who would eat food I sprayed weed killer on. The fact that this stuff survives should be proof enough. I've met a lot of people like Barbara K and have people in my family that have food allergies and reactions like nothing I remember years ago. My neighbors teen is one such kid, raised on soy formula and ate those secret GM spuds McDonald's served up for 5 years. Here her mom avoided the burgers and nuggets thinking she was doing the kid a favor! Rashes, ear infections, eczema and foods that she can't even let touch her skin without a case of hives. Only years later is the connection made to leaky gut and other problems. But I totally agree with you on Monsanto's evil business practices.]]></description>

Whichever one claims expenses to have increased, it will be more that profits have failed to.

			<description><![CDATA[Where the hell was this before the California election where prop 37, calling for labeling of GMOs, went down in flames? Holy too little, too late, Batman! Well, hopefully it's not too late to influence Obama to make this a national issue. This is THE thing to talk to your neighbors, family. and friends about. I'll say one thing about liberals and conservatives alike: they want to feed their families safe food. Get out there and campaign for real food. The national debt isn't going to kill us, taxes aren't going to kill us, Saddam Hussein wouldn't have killed us, but poison food will, whether slowly or quickly. This is the most important issue facing America today. Do something about it!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I know I am going to get a lot of negative reaction to this, but I really must protest. I am as liberal and pro-environment as anyone I know, but I am also a scientist with over 40 years of research experience in related fields and I am totally not associated with any GMO companies. I am in no one's pocket. "Science", the journal of the Americal Association for the Advancement of Science (an organization about as unbiased as any in the US) reports in the 26 Oct 2012 issue that "most scientists argue that concerns about GMOs are unfounded. Genetic modification using recombinant DNA is a technique that does not alter food in any meaningful way." The evils of Monsanto are an entirely different matter. I think it is better to not condemn GMOs categorically, but rather focus on particular issues such as seed and pesticide monopolies.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I've been a victim for nearly 3 years now. I can tell you that it can make you very ill, like having the stomach flu all day every day for nearly 3 years. I cannot eat anything with wheat in it because of the poisons put on the wheat and the seed itself. I am not allergic to wheat, was tested, it is what they put on the wheat that makes me so ill. I wish something could be done to stop them from poisoning us. If it kills bugs, it will kill people. I wonder what they don't get about that. They can find another way to grow crops that won't make us ill and shorten our life span. What they are doing is a crime, and the greedy chemical industry should be stopped NOW. It costs Medicare, Medicaid, the Insurance Companies, and us a lot of money.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I suspect that Monsanto will refuse to destroy its GMO science. They probably have billions invested in their GMO seeds. I wonder how farming will recover from GMO crops since these crops have invaded non-GMO crops for some time and Monsanto to its shame has even gone to court to sue non-GMO farmers for copyright infringement. I can only hope that the USDA and the FDA will now sanction the labelling of GMO's and in time make them illegal as a health hazard. I heard a while back that Indian farmers were working to save their seeds from GMO taint. Have we had the sense to do the same?]]></description>
