A genetically modified organism (GMO) or genetically engineered organism (GEO) is an organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. These techniques are generally known as recombinant DNA technology. With recombinant DNA technology, DNA molecules from different sources are combined in vitro into one molecule to create a new gene. This DNA is then transferred into an organism and causes the expression of modified or novel traits.

Genetically modified (GM) foods are foods produced from GMO that have had their DNA altered through genetic engineering. GM foods were first put on the market in the early 1990s. The most common modified foods are derived from plants: soybean, corn, canola cotton seed oil and wheat.

The Truth About the Meat You Eat  

There are so many issues to discuss, the impact on our health that it is difficult to choose only one at a time. My motto is: Unhealthy soil = Unhealthy plants and animals = Unhealthy People. With this in mind, let's discuss, meat, fish and meat substitutes. I just read an article by some well-meaning person was bragging that chicken and soy are good for you - WRONG!

If you consider how our ancestors in the last 10000 years, you will see that they are non-chemical ate meat, berries, nuts, and - things that they could forage area. They ate deer, buffalo, birds and other types of meat. The common thing that all of these sources of meat shared was that they were fed grass and loaded with Omega III and other useful fatty acids. However, it was crude oil, but also fish. If they do domestically, it was fresh water, but if they are close to the sea, it was sea food.

The country was also untouched, and the grasses and other plants grew and died and went back into the soil from year to year. For this reason, the flesh of animals and fish in the streams (or seafood) were loaded with trace elements. The nuts and berries were loaded with trace elements, vitamins, amino acids and enzymes. With this combination, we had healthy soil, healthy plants and animals, and healthy people.

Fast forward to the present - what we have today? Grain-fed beef chemical, chemical chicken, fish cancerous from fresh water, sea poisonous food, no trace minerals from fruit and vegetables, and genetically modified grains grown with toxic fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides and fungicides.

We see all kinds of Articles, suggesting that chicken is healthier than beef. Before you all warm and fuzzy with this idea, think about the things that are in the average diet cattle and chickens before they come to your grocery shelves.

Are you ready for a picture of the preparation of the cows and chickens before him your table?

The calves born to mothers who pesticide tags stuck in their ears for the flies. They eat grass, the country from toxic fertilizers and is probably sprayed with herbicides to kill the weeds. (If the soil healthy and fertile, would you not have weeds). The calves are grain from the fields without trace elements exposed and herbicides, pesticides and fungicides - unhealthy plants.

They weaned from their mothers and in a lot of food. There have steroids, and /or hormones injected into their ears, are fed a highly concentrated grain diet with a little fiber, ingest and antibiotics, which are added to prevent the food illness, because they are without motion Faeces on each other.

They Have chemical wormers sprayed from their heads to their tails to prevent parasites. Their feed has to be sprayed with Arm and Hammer (TM) soda to prevent gas (from the grain nutrition), it can kill. Because of the super-sour stomach, which they produce, E-coli, and their courage, that if the meat in licked can kill us. I must add here that because of the grain diets of these animals have no significant advantage fatty acids - the good things for our health.

Now, chickens action against beef. Chickens were bred to grow and mature quickly. With their diet (50%, chemicals and grain with toxic chemicals) they mature in 6 weeks. They must be harvested because to 6 weeks if they are to 8 weeks, they will die of heart attacks (the heart grow not in the same speed as their bodies) .

They also have part of their beaks removed, so that they are not each other kill. They are only in homes (usually 100 meters by 40 meters wide), and go on manure and shavings from previous games. One of my favorite things about their diet is the arsenic (a heavy metal) in their food, so they eat more. They keep feeding arsenic 5 days before slaughter, and we want you to believe that there is no residual substances in their bodies - NOT TRUE!

Also if you read that on the label store bought chicken is free range, do not believe it. The latest deception is that they are a small sun room on the side of the industrial chicken house, so that the chickens can be in this room - hence Free Range. Real Free Range Chickens may graze on grass, bugs to eat, and that their manure to fertilize the land as nature usually allow.

Just the event that you believe that the substitution of soybean protein is a good thing , let me dispel that idea. Soya beans are graten part (85%) of genetically modified. That means they can tolerate herbicides more, you get to eat. Herbicides are one of the main causes of cancer.

They are GMOs (genetically modified organisms), because the large corporations, which they invented, so to make money, not about the world, or make a new food source nutritious. GM foods have almost no food. These companies are trying to destroy our God given plant, we have to eat their food dang! We still have no idea of the disease, until the harvest in people and animals, because these unnatural foods.

If GMOs is not enough, then think of the other toxic chemicals used to grow the plants. Remember that soy is also loaded with phytoestrogens. These estrogens can increase a woman whose breast Grae. Is that they may graer and then have a better chance of breast cancer?

As long as we talk and soy phytoestrogens, we need to examine soy milk for infants and young children. If you have a new baby, would you go to the doctor and say, 'Doc, I feel strongly that my baby needs estrogens. Can you give me a script for the little tykes? As silly as that sounds, that is what happens with babies on soy.

So I wonder what that estrogen do to these children? Is the little girl mature in 7 and 8 years old? Does it make little boys tend to homosexual? I do not have an answer - only questions.

I must also add that seafood can be beneficial fatty acids, but how many PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) and mercury, how much do you want to go with your diet? PCBs are a very toxic chemical linked to cancer, by the Big animals, fish and people. This was banned in 1976, but was dumped in our rivers and seas. It is not easily biodegradable and remain in the environment for many years. Mercury is a heavy metal from many sources, but is a common pollutant from smoke stacks of electric generating plants. Michigan has more than rain falls with the EPA says, is only safe.

The salmon is easily accessible, free from chemicals (we have for the pollution of the oceans years), salmon from Alaska waters.

Beef out of the department store is unhealthy. The plastic cover and styrene container leak gas and chemicals, cancer and depression. Also, the organic beef from health stores is not healthy, because the corn diet destroys the positive fatty acids - no Omega III, CLA, etc. This being said, you can not buy, grass-fed beef chemical from all parts of the farmers USA, if you just take some time until you learn how to find them.

The chicken in the shops is also unhealthy, but you can learn how to pastured poultry. These are chickens that live on grass, bugs, and live healthy lives in the sun. You find that the pasture chickens produce healthy eggs. These eggs are beautiful with their bright orange, upright, great-tasting yellows.

It is difficult to remove GMOs (genetically modified organisms), such as soybean and corn, but it can be done. We do not need grains in our diet. Grains are unhealthy for the cows (they are eating grass machines), and they make them fat. Grains do to the people. They make us fat and unhealthy, especially if grains are striped of all nutrition (white bread), pesticides and herbicides are behind us, and toxic fertilizers used to the growth crops.

You might think when you buy a bag of Fertilizers that you get 100% fertilizer, but that's not true. Fifty pounds of fertilizer will be composed of 1 /3 to 2 /3 of industrial waste. The waste can be fairly neutral, but it could be linked to toxic heavy metals - lead, mercury, cadmium, arsenic and other toxins. If toxic metals can be as trace elements, they can be fertilizer producers, fertilizer added, and the spread on our farmland, and the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) is not involved.

If the waste was, in a land fill, the EPA would be incorporated and the disposal would be very expensive. Mercury is one of the most abused metals in the food chain. When the government tried to clean our air, which it is required to scrubbers on the smoke stacks to collect the mercury. According to the survey of mercury, the electric utilities have had to get rid of the waste, "Look out farmland, look Food .

We need sugar, but not unhealthy non-nutrient chemicals.

So loaded with sugar, some of the solutions, better nutrition and better health are grass-fed, not just beef, chicken, lamb and pork. No grains - especially something white. Buy as much as possible organic foods and searches for "therapeutic food" (so healthy that it improves your health, rather than hurt) of producers networks.
