Spain Organic Food

Geneticaly Engineered Food??!!

What does GMO mean? Genetically Modified Organism is the most common usage (though ‘manipulated’ or even ‘mutated’ might also be appropriate!) The acronyms GEO (Genetically Engineered Organism) or simply GM or GE are also used.

Genetic engineering is a radical new technology that forces genetic information across the protective species barrier in an unnatural way.

Why be concerned? One of many good reasons is that these laboratory-created mutations are unlabeled, virtually untested and on grocery shelves everywhere. This a very irresponsible way of introducing a food supply without long term testing!

A 2008 World Bank report concluded that increased biofuel production is the major cause of the increase in food prices. Monsanto has been at the heart of the lobbying for biofuels (crops grown for fuel rather than food) — while profiting enormously from the resulting food crisis and using it as a PR opportunity to promote GM foods!

“The climate crisis was used to boost biofuels, helping to create the food crisis; and now the food crisis is being used to revive the fortunes of the GM industry.” — Daniel Howden, Africa correspondent of The Independent.
US government data shows that in the US, GM crops have produced an overall increase, not decrease, in pesticide use compared to conventional crops.

Genetic modification is a crude and imprecise way of incorporating foreign genetic material (e.g. from vir

uses, bacteria) into crops, with unpredictable consequences. The resulting GM foods have undergone little rigorous and no longterm safety testing, but animal feeding tests have shown worrying health effects.

GM contamination of conventional and organic food is increasing. An unapproved GM rice that was grown for only one year in field trials was found to have extensively contaminated the US rice supply and seed stocks.

InCanada, the organic oilseed rape industry has been destroyed by contamination from GM rape. In Spain, a study found that GM maize “has caused a drastic reduction in organic cultivations of this grain and is making their coexistence practically impossible”. More seriously, in 1989 there was an outbreak of a new disease in the US, contracted by over 5,000 people and traced back to a batch of L-tryptophan food supplement produced with GM bacteria. Even though it contained less than 0.1 per cent of a highly toxic compound, 37 people died and 1,500 were left with permanent disabilities. More may have died, but the American Centre for Disease Control stopped counting in 1991.

The big biotech firms pushing their GM foods have a terrible history of toxic contamination and public deception.
GM is attractive to them because it gives them patents that allow monopoly control over the world’s food supply.
Presently certified organic foods are the best bet for the anti-GM consumer. However, even with the best intentions, companies attempting to exclude GM ingredients from their products have found cross/contamination from GM crops.
Taking care of your immune system with regular Chiropractic adjustments is the most effective proper fuel for immune system boosting!!
Only one study has been published on the direct effects on humans of eating a GM food. It found unexpected effects on gut bacteria, but was never followed up.

GM expert at Greenpeace International, Dr Jan van Aken, said: ‘Genetically Engineered food appears to be acting as a birth control agent, potentially leading to infertility.

What’s a nomad life like?

I am wanting to be a nomad.
I want to make money also
I don’t think you need college to make good money anymore..
With all these free websites and hands on learning.
I want organic healthy foods and commodities really.
I want a nice wife and maybe a family.
I’m interested in this nomad lifestyle.
Is anyone out there a nomad with good advice for me?
American nomad?
I would travel to europe also.
thanks for the advice.
Drugs and alcohol free nomad of course!
Caffeine also free..
I want to maybe have a light car or bicycle in my travels.
Spain, central and south america, Africa, pretty much the whole world intrigues me..
and What exactly is a nomad?
Itinerant I guess..
I want to do this..
As soon as I finish my job here or winter comes..
Maybe I will change my mind but I want to do it..
Live my life! to tthe fullest!
Be a real leader of the masses to see the world and teach my
knowledge to others about gmo’s and whole foods plant based diet..

Well, you figured out what the most successful people in the world do;
They WRITE DOWN everything they want to do in their lives.
Then they wait. The WAY to make what they come true; comes to them. In ways they never would expect.
They never chase after what they want. That never works.
They never put a calendar against what they want. That does not work either.
