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.

College Professor Debunks Coconut Oil and Supports Artificial Sweeteners  

beware! American Health Information is education of commercial influence

Friends and acquaintances often ask me for nutrition and health suggestions. If I ran into a friend recently he asked me if artificial Sastoffe were OK. He was surprised when I told him that artificial Sastoffe were toxic chemicals should be avoided. My friend has a degree in Physical Education, had recently seen his College nutrition educator at a cafe and asked him again about the safety of artificial Sastoffen. Holding, the light blue packages in hand, the professor said: "Using as much as you want-it's completely safe."

Nutrition health and educators in America are only to defend what they were taught and what is written in the textbooks they use. I do not blame them for this, it is quite natural to want to believe in a training you have paid and committed your life. The problem is that most health information is misleading and from any commercial interests. As the conversation with my friend, I told him about the many health benefits of the use of bio-Extra Virgin Coconut Oil. He was confused and told me that his professor said coconut oil was very bad and harmful and should be avoided at all costs. I too smiled and was not surprised.

The McGraw-Hill publishing company is responsible for the bulk of mainstream educational books on health and nutrition in this country. McGraw-Hill is a huge public trading company which also owns the NBC television network, BuissnessWeek magazine and many other media and information sources. Curiosity led me to the McGraw-Hill company's website. The McGraw-Hill people were kindly offer a variety of investors information on its website the photos and includes BIOS for its Board of Directors. I have a look at, comprised the board because, as I understand it, they are the ones that the final decisions for the corporation.

The Executive Committee of the Board of Directors of McGraw-Hill has five members. One is the managing director of the Eli Lilly pharmaceutical company and another is a director in the Coca-Cola Corporation, looks like the billionaire Mortimer from the old Eddie Murphy movie Trading Places. Pedro Aspe, seems to be some kind of politician and banker from Mexico City, is the third member. According to him research on the Internet I am still not really understand what he does. His photo on the website says a lot about him. A nice lady from Yale University and a junior McGraw (nice guy, but what he would prefer the country club) are the last two members. At the beginning I could not understand why the nice lady from Yale University was there and then I saw they Deferred Stock Trading compensation.

Insider information is publicly available online at Yahoo Finance, where I noticed their payments in the past deferred company stock worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. See for yourself what I am talking about. The information is all easily found through Google searching.

True health information is out there. It is only hidden and obscured by the companies to lose millions in profits if a large number of people to make healthy lifestyle changes. Millions of dollars will be lost as more people are discovering the truth about healthy coconut oil and cheap to abandon GM corn and soy oils. Millions of dollars will be lost as more people are discovering the truth and away aspartame and other chemical sweeteners.
