What Do You Know about GMOs?
Over the last few months there have been a lot of protests about the growing problem of GMO seeds and labeling laws.
But do you know what's really going on?
1. GMOs are unhealthy.
The American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM) urges doctors to prescribe non-GMO diets for all patients. They cite animal studies showing organ damage, gastrointestinal and immune system disorders, accelerated aging, and infertility. Human studies show how genetically modified (GM) food can leave material behind inside us, possibly causing long-term problems.
Numerous health problems increased after GMOs were introduced in 1996.
The percentage of Americans with three or more chronic illnesses jumped from 7% to 13% in just 9 years; food allergies skyrocketed and disorders such as autism, reproductive disorders, digestive problems, and others are on the rise. Doctors groups such as the AAEM tell us not to wait before we start protecting ourselves, especially our children who are most at risk. Anything with corn, beets, canola, and soy in it is most likely GMO. If it's not organic, don't buy it.
2. When we mess with nature, nature messes with us. Just like the overuse of antibiotics has created antibiotic resistant bacteria, the use of pesticides has created superbugs that then require even more pesticide use.

What Your Microwave Isn't Telling You
Microwaves have dominated our kitchens since 1967 and more than 90 percent of Americans have one in their homes. But microwaves are also a form of electromagnetic energy that produce radiation, (you know, the same stuff in atomic bombs.) This radiation has been known to decay and change the molecular structure of naturally occurring amino acids in food.
- Turns some minerals into cancerous agents and can cause tumors in the stomach or intestines.
- Can cause decreased immune system function
- Can cause memory loss and emotional problems associated with mental problems
- Slows down hormone production
Microwaves are Considered Unsafe for Baby Milk!
This doesn't mean you need to eat cold food for the rest of your days. Use convection ovens, your stove, or oven to heat and reheat your meals. They're safer because they heat by circulating hot air and heat to raise the temperature.
Let's be real - there will be times when you're in a hurry. Just cut down on your microwave time if you're not ready to toss it altogether. It could also make a great spot to stash your mail.
