Former Pro-GMO Scientist Reveals Secrets Of Years Of Research  A message from Thierry Vrain, former pro-GMO scientist and researcher: “While the debate on the safety of GMOs remains important, it should not distract from remediating the serious health risks of glyphosate sprayed on both RoundUp Ready and non-engineered crops. After viewing this presentation many GMO videos may appear, but note that most avoid mentioning the herbicide, glyphosate , when more than 90% of all GMO crops in North America are sprayed with this herbicide that should have remained a pipe and boiler cleaner.” Video http://bit.ly/1KbUhfY 'via Blog this'

Columbia Bans Glyphosate From Being Sprayed On Coca (Cocaine) Crops  In a seemingly twisted turn of events, Columbia, known the world over as a center of illicit drug trade, will remove glyphosate chemicals from their coca crops – the raw material used to make cocaine. If the irony is lost on you, that means that while we here in the US can’t even count on eating a non-glyphosate coated apple or corn-chips, people who want to do lines of ‘glyphosate-free’ drugs can do so in Columbia. As the BBC reports, glyphosate has been used in US-sponsored crop-spraying anti-narcotics programs in South America. President Manual Santos states that anti-narcotic officials will have until October of this year to find another method, aside from spraying glyphosate, to use with coca production. Santos told reporters: “I am going to ask the government officials in the National Drug Council at their next meeting to suspend glyphosate spraying of illicit cultivations . . . The recommend...

Test Yourself: Are Monsanto’s Chemicals In Your Blood?  What if you could prove that Monsanto’s best selling herbicide Round Up is affecting you personally? Maybe you’ve thought of testing yourself, but didn’t know which lab to go to that would report the true results. An answer to your pleas has arrived. In an unprecedented move, a non-profit organization has set up an independent lab that all people can access in order to test for glyphosate . Feed the World has set up the first ever validated glyphosate testing (LC/MS/MS) for the general public worldwide, which will be provided in the U.S. with the support of the Organic Consumers Association (OCA). There is no better way to prove that glyphosate is harming the entire population than to confirm that most of us have traces of it in our urine , breast milk and tap water. The cost of testing for each of these is much less than what many doctor’s office visits or labs would charge for a simple blood draw –but you don’t ...
