Melamine and crops

Linda’s comments:  READ labels folks….this is more proof why we need to eat organically.  If it isn’t GMO it is tainted with toxins, pesticides and insecticides.

Effects of Three GM Corn Varieties on Mammalian Health

Linda’s comments:  I can not encourage everyone enough to STOP eating  GMO foods.  Here is a study showing you what it does to rats, yet you are willing to eat GMO.  What do you think it is doing to your stomach, colon and digestive system??  It effects the heart, adrenal glands, spleen, colon. Have you ever stopped to think why we have a rise in Cancers?  If you love your children and grandchildren you will try and educate them against GMO foods.

Exerpt:
We present for the first time a comparative analysis of blood and organ system data from trials with rats fed three main commercialized genetically modified (GM) maize (NK 603, MON 810, MON 863), which are present in food and feed in the world. NK 603 has been modified to be tolerant to the broad spectrum herbicide Roundup and thus contains residues of this formulation. MON 810 and MON 863 are engineered to synthesize two different Bt toxins used as insecticides. Approximately 60 different biochemical parameters were classified per organ and measured in serum and urine after 5 and 14 weeks of feeding. GM maize-fed rats were compared first to their respective isogenic or parental non-GM equivalent control groups. This was followed by comparison to six reference groups, which had consumed various other non-GM maize varieties. We applied nonparametric methods, including multiple pairwise comparisons with a False Discovery Rate approach.

potentially harmful chemicals kept secret

Linda’s comment:  Use of potentially harmful chemicals kept secret under law…???  Sorry but this is criminal in my book….there is no wonder there are so many environmental cancers today.  What do you think this is doing to our children and grandchildren?  We are adults, we can read labels and do our own research, except in cases like this.  How dare they playing with our lives.  We elect them to be honest not hide behind some veil of secrecy!!  This is criminal in my books…Do they not know they are killing and exposing their own families, themselves??
 
Perhaps we should shove all these creeps in a moldy toxic room, spray it good with pesticides, herbicides and these other chemicals they are hiding, then feed them GMO foods with a diet soda chaser!!??  Wonder how many will keep their prostates?  How many will get lung, breast and stomach cancers?  Enough is enough, we the consumer have to stand up and SAY NO, WE ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE….
 
All the more reason why we must focus on detoxing and following a lifelong daily detox program.

Excerpt:

Of the 84,000 chemicals in commercial use in the United States — from
flame retardants in furniture to household cleaners — nearly 20 percent
are secret, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, their
names and physical properties guarded from consumers and virtually all
public officials under a little-known federal provision.

The policy was designed 33 years ago to protect trade secrets in a
highly competitive industry. But critics — including the Obama
administration — say the secrecy has grown out of control, making it
impossible for regulators to control potential dangers or for consumers
to know which toxic substances they might be exposed to.

At a time of increasing public demand for more information about
chemical exposure, pressure is building on lawmakers to make it more
difficult for manufacturers to cloak their products in secrecy. Congress
is set to rewrite chemical regulations this year for the first time in a
generation.
