"Every human being is the author of his own health or disease."
- Buddha



"Life is not merely to be alive, but to be well."
- Marcus Valerius Martial

"He that takes medicine and neglects diet, wastes the skill of the physician." - Chinese Proverb



"And there were some who died with fevers, which at some seasons of the year were very frequent in the land - but not so much so with fevers, because of the excellent qualities of the many plants and roots which God had prepared to remove the cause of diseases, to which men were subject by the nature of the climate" (Alma 46:40).

Most of  you are familiar with the term genetically modified organism (GMO). Touted by some to be cutting edge technology and the answer to how we are going to feed our ever expanding population, several experts have serious concerns about the long term effects of these manipulated foods on our health.

In a genetically modified (GM) food, scientists take one or more genes from the DNA of one organism, such as a bacteria, virus, or animal, and “recombine” them into the DNA of the plant they want to alter. This new bio-engineered plant will, in turn, express the trait of interest.  For example, the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is transferred into the DNA of corn. This bacterium produces crystal proteins that are lethal to insect larvae. Combining the Bt genes into the DNA of corn allows the corn to produce its own pesticide. This sounds reasonable, actually elegant and even highly beneficial. Depending on the objective of the engineering, it could:
  • produce pest resistant crops
  • produce higher crop yields
  • be frost resistant, herbicide resistant, disease resistant, drought resistant
  • produce more nutritionally dense crops
Unfortunately, the negative side of GM food is much more compelling; the so-called benefits turn out to be not benefits at all. We are fundamentally changing the physiology and metabolism of plants and food as well as disturbing a delicate ecosystem. By growing and consuming these plants, we are breaking natural laws, combining organisms that would never interact with one another! The consequences are beginning to be revealed on a global socioeconomic and health level.

  • The crops may be resistant to some pest but not others, requiring the use of more pesticides
  • Initially there may be need for less herbicides, but ‘super weeds’ are being created, requiring stronger and more toxic chemicals to be sprayed
  • There is the same amount or less crop produced compared with the yield of the  conventional seed
  • the food is not nutritionally more dense, some crops are now deficient in certain nutrients
  • Our ecosystem is being negatively affected. For example, the Monarch Butterfly numbers are in decline
  • GMO crops are threatening farmers’ lively hoods around the globe.
Let’s go back to the Bt bacterium. The effect of this bacterium on insects is that it paralyzes their digestive system, punches holes in their gut lining eventually killing the insect.  Until recently it was thought that if humans ingested the Bt bacterium, or the GM corn or soy that contains their DNA, it does not have a toxic effect. But more recent research shows that the effect of Bt corn or soy on humans does have damaging effects. It may increase the permeability of our digestive lining, otherwise known as ‘leaky gut’, setting the stage for a variety of chronic health conditions.

Manipulated crops in combination with more chemicals (specifically the pesticide Roundup) have been linked to  malformations (birth defects), reproductive problems, DNA damage, and cancer in test animals. Human epidemiological studies have found an association between Roundup exposure and miscarriage, birth defects, neurological development problems, DNA damage, and certain types of cancer.

Chronic inflammation is a widely accepted an igniter of chronic disease. With the introduction of GM food, there has been a drastic increase of inflammatory conditions. This suggests that the irritation and toxicity caused by GM foods and related chemicals are increasing people’s susceptibility to chronic health imbalances.


So what can we do?

Avoid eating GM food.

At this point, unless it is labeled non-GMO, or is labeled organic, there is a high probability that these specific foods are genetically modified.

Take Action.

Many countries have banned GMOs and others have enforced labeling of GM Food. In the US, there is a push to require the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) to label GM Food. The only way to make a decision about whether you want to consume GMO’s or not, is to first know if you are eating them. If this sounds like an important cause, go to Label it WA  

If you are interested in keeping up on what is in our food the Non GMO Project is a helpful website that has up to date information. There is also the non-GMO shopping guide on this website which is a helpful mobile tool

I highly recommend everyone to watch this movie. It is extremely relevant and a wake up call to pay attention to what you are putting in your body and how it affects your health, as well as the health of generations to come.
