Stomach issues? Allergies? Then stop eating GMOs!! You will feel much better, really you will. The American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM) conclude that GMO foods ‘pose a serious health risk in the areas of toxicology, allergy and immune function, reproductive health, and metabolic, physiologic and genetic health and are without benefit.

Glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine) is a broad-spectrum systemic herbicide used to kill weeds, especially annual broadleaf weeds and grasses known to compete with commercial crops grown around the globe. Monsanto brought it to market in the 1970s under the trade name “Roundup”. Glyphosate was quickly adopted by farmers, even more so when Monsanto introduced glyphosate-resistant crops, enabling farmers to kill weeds without killing their crops.Glyphosate’s mode of action is to inhibit an enzyme involved in the synthesis of the aromatic amino acids tyrosine, tryptophan and phenylalanine. It is absorbed through foliage and translocated to growing points.

Is it safe you ask?

• Ask the mothers who’s breast milk it was found, the levels in the breast milk were 760 to 1600 times higher than the European Drinking Water Directive allows for individual pesticides. 
• Ask the people in Sri Lanka that have now banned glyphosate because the chemical may be linked to a mysterious kidney disease that has killed thousands of agricultural workers, according to the Center for Public Integrity.
• Ask why is the EPA not protecting us. “Through the EPA’s new standards, the amount of allowable glyphosate in oilseed crops such as flax, soybeans and canola will be increased from 20 parts per million (ppm) to 40 ppm, which GM Watch acknowledged is  over 100,000 times the amount needed to induce breast cancer cells. Additionally, the EPA is increasing limits on allowable glyphosate in food crops from 200 ppm to 6,000 ppm.”
• Ask why so many people have allergies now? Glyphosate is killing our gut bacteria,  imbalances and issues of the digestive system have been linked to allergies and food sensitivities, among many other issues including inflammation of cellular systems, depression, infertility, and heart disease.
• Ask yourself, is your health and the health of your children really worth letting companies like Monsanto get away with consistently poisoning everyone and everything on the planet?
