Hell no GMO!

Unbeknownst to many of us, our food supply is being tinkered with by scientists and engineers. They are putting ‘GMO's” (“genetically modified organisms”) into our food without telling us on the label. This is very bad!

Here is what you need to know:

1.Scientific studies( from a recent journal entitled "Food and Chemical Toxicology”) have shown that when rats were given a diet of GMO food they developed large tumors. I don't know about you, but I definitely do not want to get cancer from my food!

2. Buy organic corn, soy and canola products or else you will be ingesting GMO’s (on second thought, don’t use those oils at all). Try to eliminate commercial beef and poultry since they are raised on corn, soy and grains that are tainted with GMO’s. Grass-fed beef and organic poultry are the better choices.

3. Demand labeling laws in your state that require it to say on food packages that they contain GMO’s. Look for the" Non GMO project verified" label on your foods (“nongmoproject.org”). Look to join and support groups such as “GMO Free Florida” and “Millions against Monsanto Florida”. Call your state representative to voice your complaint and demand new labeling laws on all food products.

Be on the lookout for GMO apples that are coming out in the future. They won’t turn brown when the inside is exposed to air, but they will potentially increase your risk for cancer!

This will be a major health issue going forward and we need to become educated about corporate profits being prioritized over our health and wellness. By the way, don’t forget to “Start With Your Feet”.
