Linda’s comments: GO TO ONE OF MY BLOGS……. www.lymebook.com/fight and watch all SIX of the free webinars on FIGHT…….if you are fighting ANY CHRONIC ILLNESS THEY ARE A MUST WATCH……we must reduce our total body burden of pathogens and toxins, IF WE WANT TO GET WELL….

Pesticides bans are healthy for environment and people
Posted: 08 Dec 2011 09:42 AM PST

If you live in a province that hasn’t already banned cosmetic pesticides, tell your representative that you want legislation to ensure a clean environment for you and your children (Credit: OlivIreland via Flickr).

Linda’s comments:  ListenUP folks….IF YOU DON’T LOWER YOUR TOTAL BODY BURDEN OF PATHOGENS AND TOXINS, you can’t get well….this is a VERY important post from Dr Gordon… I don’t know what it is going to take to get people’s heads wrapped around the GMO dangers??

Dr. Gordon’s comments:

Which is worse lead/mercury accumulations, toxins like this building up in everyone or loss of the electromagnetic field of the earth that we require for efficient metabolism? Or let’s forget which is worse and have a FIGHT program to deal with all of this and more.

But please know that in my mind Monsanto is getting away with murder. All this gluten intolerance and food sensitivities are Leaky gut related and that ties to the Bacillus Theringensis we all now have thanks to GM modified foods we all cannot escape. This is from Dr. Mercola’s link.

“Cry1Ab, a specific type of Bt toxin from genetically modified (GM) crops, has for the first time been detected in human and fetal blood samples. It appears the toxin is quite prevalent, as upon testing 69 pregnant and non-pregnant women who were eating a typical Canadian diet (which included foods such as GM soy, corn and potatoes), researchers found Bt toxin in:

*93 percent of maternal blood samples
*80 percent of fetal blood samples
*69 percent of non-pregnant women blood samples

Writing in the journal Reproductive Toxicology, the researchers noted:

“This is the first study to reveal the presence of circulating PAGMF [pesticides associated with genetically modified foods] in women with and without pregnancy, paving the way for a new field in reproductive toxicology including nutrition and utero-placental toxicities.”

This GM insecticide toxin is already showing up in fetal blood, which means it could have an untold impact on future generations.

Bt Toxin is a Built-In Pesticide
Upwards of 85 percent of U.S. corn crops contain a special gene added that allows them to produce an insecticide. This way, when bugs attempt to eat the corn they’re killed right away (specifically their stomach is split open) because the plant contains an invisible, built-in pesticide shield.

The particular gene added to most corn crops is a type of Bt-toxin — produced from Bacillus thuringiensis bacteria. Genetic engineers remove the gene that produces the Bt in bacteria and insert it into the DNA of corn (and cotton) plants.”

GM Insecticide Poisons Also Showing Up in Waterways
Given that Bt toxin has now been confirmed in the human bloodstream, it should come as no surprise that it has also infiltrated the environment. According to one study, 50 of the 217 streams, ditches and drains near cornfields that researchers tested were found to contain Cry1Ab above six nanograms per liter.

The protein is getting into the waterways via corn stalks, leaves, husks and cobs that blow into the water — a phenomenon that’s incredibly common since farmers often leave such material in fields to help minimize soil erosion.

Gut bacteria may cause autoimmune disease. We have all known this for some time but here is more research getting into how it happens.

The finding 
The trillions of microbes that reside in the human gut shape their host’s immune system—for better or for worse. In a mouse model of autoimmune arthritis, Diane Mathis from Harvard University and colleagues found that gut bacteria can provoke autoimmune disease in distant parts of the body—the joints.

The surprise 
When investigators raised transgenic mice (which develop the disease at 4 weeks of age) in germ-free conditions, the animals developed a milder version of the disease much later. Germ-free mice lack immune cells called T helper 17 cells (Th17), because these cells require the gut bacteria called segmented filamentous bacteria (SFB) to properly develop. When Mathis blocked IL-17—secreted by Th17 cells—in the normally raised mouse model, disease progression was also attenuated.

The link 
Mathis and colleagues showed that after SFB induced the accumulation of Th17 cells in the gut, the immune cells traveled to the spleen, where they helped activate antibody-producing B cells. Since the B cells in this mouse model produced self-attacking antibodies that initiated arthritis, the presence of IL-17 acted like a catalyst, quickening the disease. Though more work remains, “it is not hard to imagine the clinical relevance,” write Rochelle Marie Hinman and Faculty Member John Cambier.

Even though Monsanto has never been stopped for long, GMO foods finally are asked to provide some data. This is a huge victory even if it later gets overturned. Finally one judge realized that they have not produced the data to permit them to take over the entire sugar market in this country, which means everyone will be getting the possibility of Bacillus theringensis and more leaky gut leading to more food sensitivities.

Judge Revokes Approval of Modified Sugar Beets
By ANDREW POLLACK

A federal district court judge revoked the government’s approval of genetically engineered sugar beets Friday, saying that the Agriculture Department had not adequately assessed the environmental consequences before approving them for commercial cultivation. 
The decision, by Judge Jeffrey S. White of Federal District Court in San Francisco, appears to effectively ban the planting of the genetically modified sugar beets, which make up about 95 percent of the crop, until the Agriculture Department prepares an environmental impact statement and approves the crop again, a process that might take a couple of years. 

The decision could cause major problems for sugar beet farmers and sugar processors. In the past the sugar industry has warned there might not be enough non-engineered seeds available. However, the judge ruled that crops currently in the ground can be harvested and made into sugar, so the effects will not be felt until next spring’s planting season. 
Beets supply about half the nation’s sugar, with the rest coming from sugar cane. Sugar beet growers sold the 2007-8 crop for about $1.335 billion, according to government data. 
The decision came in a lawsuit organized by the Center for Food Safety, a Washington advocacy group that opposes biotech crops. 

Dear FACT members:

Gluten sensitivity, does everyone have some tendency to this common affliction? It is great to have gluten free foods becoming widely available and Harvard admitting this is hard to rule in or out. Not everyone has the classic symptoms yet this can be contributing to poor health for many people. Continued
