The ancient bacteria that has kept our gut in alignment and our digestion easy have been dying off and replaced by harmful microbes that don’t serve to keep us physically healthy and mentally fit. Nine years ago, I interviewed Dr. William Davis, author of Wheat Belly, which was a breakthrough informing many that the wheat […]
At Food Integrity Now, we are greatly concerned about the consequences of genetically modifying any of our food. The CRISPR technology is no exception to this concern.

But are they really healthy? We wanted to find out what’s really in those fake meats so that you can be informed about what you are really eating.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released in a statement Thursday that they have finished their regulatory review and found that glyphosate is not a carcinogen. In their statement released Thursday, the agency said “EPA has concluded that there is no risk of concern to human health when glyphosate is used according to the label […]
Two new studies add to the body of science, showing glyphosate— a key ingredient in Bayer/Monsanto’s herbicide RoundUp, is harmful to living systems. The studies point to convincing evidence that glyphosate can alter DNA by actively working at the epigentic level. The studies strongly suggest glyphosate is affecting human chemistry at the genetic level to turn […]
People are still asking me about the Impossible Burger. I tell them there are so many reasons not to eat it. Let’s discuss some of them.

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has already given non-regulated status to more to more than 21 gene edited crops engineered genetically with so-called genome editing techniques. This is according to new research done by Testbiotech. None of the applications registered at the USDA were referred for further more detailed assessment. What does this mean? Again, […]
What is all the fuss about CRISPR-Cas9 technology and gene editing? Genome editing (also called gene editing) is a group of technologies that give scientists the ability to change an organism’s DNA.

Most Americans remain blissfully unaware (or don’t care) they are eating genetically-modified (GM) organisms every day. Passivity and blind faith in the USDA, FDA and EPA have largely contributed to this attitude. Perhaps that will change now that a GMO Study reveals an insecticide produced in GM corn actually gets absorbed into the human body.
