GMO potatoes: The risks to health

Dr Caius Rommens developed GMO potatoes, but subsequently renounced his work. He explains why we should be wary of the products he created

By GMWatch.org

Dr Caius Rommens developed GMO potatoes for the Idaho-based agbiotech company Simplot. The chief genetic modification he introduced was to silence the potatoes’ melanin (PPO) gene.

This gene, when operative, causes potatoes to discolour when bruised. The GMO potatoes do not discolour when bruised. They have therefore been marketed as bruise-resistant and are being sold without GMO labels in the US and Canada under innocuous-sounding names like Innate, Hibernate, and White Russet.

After finding that “most GMO varieties were stunted, chlorotic, mutated, or sterile, and many of them died quickly, like prematurely-born babies”, Dr Rommens renounced his genetic engineering career and wrote a book about his experiences, Pandora’s Potatoes: The Worst GMOs.

The corporate-military-industrial complex is in the process of deploying — upon all civilians — millimeter-wave technology linked to weapons programs. The realization of this agenda is progressing toward mainstream awareness, and people are fighting back.

The global rollout of 5G is well underway, and we soon may see new small cell towers near all schools, on every residential street, dispersed throughout the natural environment, and pretty much everywhere. But the safety of this technology is in serious question, and there is a raging battle to stop the taxpayer funded implementation of 5G.

The new cell network uses high band radio frequency millimeter waves to deliver high bandwidth data to any device within line of sight.

Are ‘smart’ meter radiation emissions safe – or not? This video measures the pulses from a ‘smart’ meter and a cell phone. 

Similar to testing results from many other researchers & experts, these results showed that the ‘smart’ meter microwave pulses are hundreds of times higher than the “extreme concern” threshold as set by the Building Biology guidelines.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently found traces of a cancerous substance, known as glyphosate, in common foods, including granola and crackers.  Why is this such a big deal?

Just consider this statement from Dr. Stephanie Seneff and Dr. Antohny Semsel – which speaks volumes about the danger of this toxin:

“Glyphosate has a large number of tumorigenic [cancer-causing] effects on biological systems, including direct damage to DNA in sensitive cells, disruption of glycine homeostasis, succinate dehydrogenase inhibition, chelation of [minerals such as] manganese, modification to more carcinogenic molecules, such as N-nitrosoglyphosate and glyoxylate, disruption of fructose metabolism, etc…” (the bold is our emphasis)

And, for those a bit more ‘skeptical’ about the often underreported threat of this herbicide ingredient, just check out this article by the Guardian revealing findings that the FDA prefers kept under the radar.  These reports are a constant reminder of how environmental toxins are ‘quietly’ destroying millions of lives – without informed consent.

The research EXPOSED: Glyphosate causes hormonal imbalances and cancerous tumors

Our dogs are in the midst of an epidemic.  It’s not an epidemic of viral disease, but of chronic ill health.  They’re besieged with itchy, pus-laden, scabby skin; vomit and diarrhoea are the norm.  One in every hundred dogs suffers from epilepsy, and an even higher number lives with painful arthritis.  Allergies are also reaching epidemic proportions: dogs are becoming allergic to life.

According to Dr Jean W Dodds, an eminent vet and researcher, both allergic and autoimmune diseases have been rising since the introduction of modified live virus vaccines.  Autoimmune diseases are where the body attacks self; they include cancer, leukaemia, thyroid disease, Addisons, Grave’s disease, autoimmune haemolytic anaemia, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, lupus, thrombocytopenia, organ failure, skin inflammations, and more.

We also seem to have a tremendous number of dogs with behavioural problems, largely due to over-vaccination and processed pet food.  Vaccines are known to cause inflammation of the brain, as well as lesions throughout the brain and central nervous system.  The medical term for this is ‘encephalitis’, and vaccine’s role is acknowledged in the Merck Manual.  Merck is a vaccine manufacturer.

Years ago, I was the typical ‘responsible’ dog owner.  My four Golden Retrievers were vaccinated every year, and they were fed a ‘complete and balanced’ pet food, recommended by my vet.  The red carpet was metaphorically rolled out once a fortnight, each time I visited with a dog suffering from chronic disease.  Eventually the problems became more serious: my dogs started to die years before their time.

Over the years, I’ve collected research documents to help me make decisions about my dogs’ husbandry, and to share what I’ve learnt with other dog lovers.  I also hoped that vets would take notice of the research, and stop over-vaccinating.  All medical interventions come with a risk – even the humble aspirin can be deadly.  So you have to do a risk/benefit analysis whenever you consider medications.  What, then, are the risks of vaccines?

Everyone has a natural instinct to avoid exposure to toxic chemicals. However, many make an exception when it comes to the popular use of disinfectant (cleaning) products. For example, one group of healthcare providers will be thinking twice about their habits – after reading this special report.

A recent release by INSERM of Villejuif, France is connecting regular use of disinfectants by nurses with the lung disease COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). The research group looked at data from over 55,000 registered nurses from the Nurses’ Health Study II – which began back in 1989.

The Nurses’ Health Study II is coordinated by Harvard Medical School and the Channing Division of Network Medicine, Brigham and Women’s Hospital.

Using a disinfectant once per week increases the risk of lung disease by at least 22 percent

Did you know that a substance used in paint stripper, rubber cement and permanent spot remover is being used as a preservative in many popular foods (and beverages) for decades?!

The culprit is called, sodium benzoate and you may have seen it while glancing at a food label.  Sadly, too many people dismiss it as one of those chemical preservatives ‘necessary’ to process packaged food.  But, there’s an ugly truth that the food industry is hiding from you about this preservative.

Sure, by now, anybody who can still think straight and isn’t getting the drip (chemotherapy) at some superbug-ridden hospital knows better than to eat non-organic corn and soy in America. Those two GM staple crops are as corrupt as snake venom, and they infiltrate more than 70 percent of all U.S. food, including baby food and pet food. Anyone who also cares an iota about the environment knows biotechnology and chemical agriculture is not sustainable, as our soil from sea to shining sea methodically becomes more and more void of nutrients, and you know what that means.

Still, most people who shop organic and local are largely unaware that every year the biotech giants Bayer, Dupont, Dow, Syngenta, Cargill (and the list goes on) have thousands of evil science trolls in white lab coats figuring out new ways to infect the seeds of other popular produce and grains.

Meanwhile, the most popular and deadly herbicide, Roundup, is sprayed on commercial crops as if it were filtered water, while more and more Americans are suffering from chronic illnesses and organ failure, wondering what their clueless M.D.s and oncologists can do to “save” them or extend their miserable lives just a few more years.

Let’s face it folks, food “transparency” is becoming opaque, Whole Foods will NEVER put a warning label on their GMOs (especially since they’re now owned by Jeff Bezos), and foods you never thought would be corrupted in a laboratory now are.

So, besides sugar, beets, canned soups, most cereals, and 90 percent of all canola oil, let’s talk about some foods you probably had no idea are actually made with GMOs:

#1. “Honey” (largely made with GMO HFCS)

Yes, it’s true. Research reveals most store-bought honey isn’t honey at all. So then what the hell is it? More than 75 percent of honey sold in those jugs, jars, and cute little plastic bears in U.S. grocery stores, drug stores, Costco, Sam’s Club, Walmart, and Target is not what bees produce. For starters, it doesn’t contain any pollen. Are you really consuming GMOs and HFCS (high fructose corn syrup) when you think you’re eating honey? Don’t look it up on “Google” because they too are owned by Big Pharma and Big Food.

#2. Wheat breads (made with GMO HFCS)

Remember the “whole grain” and “multi-grain” fad? Every parent in the USA went crazy, buying their kids whole grain bread, wheat bread, and multi-grain cereals, even though GM wheat was in full swing, and those cereals and bread were still loaded with GM HFCS. What a Ponzi scheme health scam that was. Wait, are you still falling for it? Plus, now nearly all non-organic grains, including wheat, barley and rye, are heavily sprayed with Roundup (carcinogenic weed killer) to help them dry out before cutting them all down and processing them in the silos.

#3. Baby Formula

If the corn, soy, and milk in your baby’s formula isn’t organic, then your baby is getting a “double dose” of genetically modified toxins. Most U.S. cows are fed GM alfalfa, and many baby formulas are made with GM soybean milk now. Would you spray ant and roach killer on your infant to keep the bugs away, and feed him or her pesticides on purpose? Then quit doing it on accident.

#4. Potatoes

Are you buying potatoes that are “bruise resistant?” Maybe YOU will also be bruise resistant when you’re dying of cancer. What types of potatoes do you think fast food chains and most restaurants serve up? Well, the cheap, corporate GM ones, of course. Yep, three types of GM Frankenfood potatoes are out there, and if you didn’t know, and you just continue to shop blindly, you might just get “fried” yourself. That’s “plant science” folks (but it’s really fake science), and if you don’t like getting cancer and dementia, then you are labeled by corporate America as “anti-science.”

#5. Papaya

In the 1990s, Hawaiian papaya production was cut in half by the ring spot virus. The solution? Go into a laboratory and create a Frankenstein papaya called the Rainbow Papaya. Now it’s the primary variety there.

#6. Pumpkins

Did you know pumpkins did not exist at one point in history? Be sure to remember Michael Pollen saying, “Don’t eat anything your great-grandmother wouldn’t recognize as food.” This year for Halloween, check that canned pumpkin, because it’s not really pumpkin at all, but another Nestle “Franken-crop” creation.

Top 10 Critical Reasons To Skip The Flu Shot

Many in the medical community and other proponents of the flu vaccine would have you believe it is absolutely necessary for sustaining health. However, a closer look at the long list of vaccine dangers associated with the shot reveals it is more about dollars spent on pharmaceuticals than it is about public health.

If you still need convincing to help you avoid the vaccine, here are 10 critical reasons you should skip the flu shot:

1. Ineffectiveness is well documented: Each year, a flu vaccination is created months ahead of time, based on a “best guess” of what strains are going to give the most trouble when flu season arrives. Even public health officials have voiced doubt about effectiveness. If you come into contact with a different strain of the flu, you will have put yourself at risk of side effects, yet become ill anyway.

2. It’s all about the money: The same officials pushing the flu vaccine – specifically, members of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) – stand to make billions of dollars from successful sale of the pharmaceuticals. The ability these officials have to work objectively in the best interests of public health is highly compromised, to say the very least.

3. Immunization is a fallacy: It is no coincidence that when a child is vaccinated, he or she develops a number of symptoms, including runny nose, ear infection, and bronchitis – even pneumonia. The flu vaccine introduces the flu virus to the bodies, sensitizing the body to the virus, lowering immunity and creating symptoms.

4. No benefits for infants and children: Scientific review of over 50 studies involving 260,000 children ages 6 to 23 months did not uncover any evidence that young children benefit from the flu vaccine. In fact, results showed the flu shot was no more effective than a placebo. Yet, at the same time, research has shown that the injection itself can lead to serious health complications in patients of any age. Problems have included infection, adverse immunological response and even death.

5. Increased threat to those at risk: Flu vaccines introduce live virus to the human body. For patients already suffering from a suppressed immune system and reduced ability to fight off viruses, the shot can increase risk of the full effects of flu, as well as increase susceptibility to pneumonia and other contagious diseases.

6. Hazard of mercury toxicity: The flu vaccine contains mercury, a heavy metal known to cause memory loss, respiratory problems, cardiovascular disease, attention deficiency disorder, digestive imbalances, oral health issues and other health concerns. The amount of mercury contained in a multi-dose flu shot far exceeds the maximum allowable daily exposure limit.

7. Evidence of neurological disorders: There is evidence that ingredients used in flu vaccines can cause serious neurological disorders. Many receiving flu shots during the 1976 swine flu outbreak suffered permanent nerve damage. This is not surprising, considering flu vaccines can contain a number of hazardous materials, including formaldehyde, detergent and mercury, in addition to strains of the live virus.

8. Greater risk of Alzheimer’s disease: The elderly are frequent targets in the push for the flu shot, yet there is evidence that those receiving the flu vaccine for three to five consecutive years runs a 10-fold increase for developing Alzheimer’s disease than those who did not have any flu shots. In addition, aging tends to bring with it a weakened immune system (under ‘normal’ living habits), increasing the risk of dangerous symptoms when the flu virus is introduced to the body.

9. Multiple strains bring multiple risks: In recent years, particularly since the arrival of the H1N1 strain, it has become increasingly difficult to pinpoint which strains to vaccinate against. Moreover, receiving shots for multiple strains increases the health risk as greater numbers of viruses and harmful vaccines are introduced into your body.

10. Vitamin C is a better option: Studies have shown that overuse of the flu vaccine, along with drugs like Tamiflu and Relenza, can cause flu viruses to mutate, potentially resulting in more deadly strains. Rather than reducing susceptibility to the flu, the flu vaccine leads to even greater risks.

Rather than risk your health with the flu vaccine, why not opt for some vitamin C benefits such as warding off viruses without the risky side effects of a vaccine. This natural antioxidant has multiple advantages to your health, all without the risk of toxins and their side effects.

New research reveals severe withdrawal symptoms in over half of those who discontinue antidepressant drugs, including lasting and even permanent damage.

A concerning new study published in the journal Addictive Behavior and titled, “A systematic review into the incidence, severity and duration of antidepressant withdrawal effects: Are guidelines evidence-based?,” reveals that antidepressants are far more addictive and harmful than previously assumed, and vindicates the long time activism on this issue spearheaded by American psychiatrists like Kelly Brogan, MD and Peter Breggin, MD.
