The main reason for the unpopularity of this hormone, which is banned in most
other industrialized countries, is the danger of insulin-like growth factor 1
(IGF-1). Dozens of studies confirm that IGF-1, which accelerates cell
division, substantially increases the risk of breast, prostate, colon, lung, and
other cancers. Normal milk contains IGF-1, milk drinkers have higher levels of
IGF-1, and the milk from cows injected with Eli Lilly’s drug has much
greater amounts of IGF-1. You can connect the dots. …
Expert Jeffrey M. Smith, author of the #1 GMO bestseller Seeds of Deception, and
Genetic Roulette, entertains a wildly appreciative audience with shocking facts
about how genetically modified organisms (GMOs) entered our lives. Smith links
GMO to toxins, allergies, infertility, infant mortality, immune dysfunction,
stunted growth, and death. …
“It’s kind of like when you get stopped for a traffic ticket in L.A. and the cop
drops a bag of marijuana in the back of your car and then charges you with
possession of marijuana,” said the Nobel Laureate. “It’s a very fast, very
efficient way to get people off of the street.” …
Agricultural GM companies and evaluation committees systematically overlook the
side effects of GMOs and pesticides. This is clearly illustrated by the EFSA and
the US FDA, which evaluated the controversial GM maize varieties MON 863 and MON
810 …
Anyone who believes Monsanto’s proclamations of saving the world from
environmental catastrophe and hunger by way of increased yields is clearly not
paying attention to some very blatant signs that this is not true. …
There is more than a casual association between GM foods and adverse health
effects. There is causation as defined by Hill’s Criteria in the areas of
strength of association, consistency, specificity, biological gradient, and
biological plausibility.5 The strength of association and consistency
between GM foods and disease is confirmed in several animal studies. …
“Multiple animal studies have shown that GM foods cause damage to various organ
systems in the body. With this mounting evidence, it is imperative to have a
moratorium on GM foods for the safety of our patients’ and the public’s health …
Fundamentally the science of genetic engineering is crap. One gene expressing
one protein is the basis of genetic engineering, but the Human Genome Project
discovered 23,000 genes, and there are 200,000 proteins in every cell. With this
discovery, genetic engineering should have disappeared into the dustbin, but the
biotechnology industry is so strong. Genetic engineering is a product driven
technology. If you have enough money to throw at it, you can do many things. But
the industry won’t waste money on safety assessment. …
“There is more than a casual association between GM foods and adverse health
effects. There is causation,” as defined by recognized scientific criteria.
“The strength of association and consistency between GM foods and disease is
confirmed in several animal studies.” …
Ironically, bio-opportunism reflects one of the biotech industry’s best
qualities: your competition does not have to fail for you to succeed. In fact,
your competitors’ successes can often validate your approach, in which case a
little coattail riding can be warranted. …
