Are GMO's Bad For You?


Yes, I believe they are very bad for your health.  Here in California we have a proposition on the ballot to label all foods with GMOs. There is a huge campaign from big companies to vote down this proposition.

One of my friends wrote on facebook,  "What's it say when Dupont, Dow, Bayer, Pepsico, Coco-Cola NA, Nestle, Conagra, General Mills, Del Monte, Kellogg, Hershey, Hormel, Ocean Spray, Sara Lee, Campbell and Mars are spending huge sums of money against the labeling of GMO's? Monsanto has so far spent $7,105,582!"
GMO stands for genetically modified food.  Man thinks he can improve our food and make it better than the way God created it.  Dr. Oz said GMOs are in 90% of corn, soy, and canola.  He said the only way to assure you don't get them in your food is to buy local or organic.
This is where I go back to good old common sense.  Food that man is messing with can't be as good for you as food the way God created for us to eat it.  Several men on The Dr. Oz Show said that GMO food leads to a dramatic increase in cancer and other diseases.

Be educated and don't take your health for granted.  Dr. Mercola has a lot of articles on GMOs.  I would suggest you read some of them.

Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you
and that you may be in good health,
as it goes well with your soul.

I have been pushing and spreading the word for Yes on Prop 37 locally for months now! Its incredible how people are waking up to what really is in our food supply. I pray this passes- it will be the start of a revolution of the food industry in the US.
Not living in California, I have only heard reports of such 'bullying' from big AG (Monsanto, et. al) with ads to vote no on 37. I've tried to educate my California family and hopefully they will cast YES votes on Prop 37.

This is gross! The more I learn about GMO the more mad it makes me. I live in Texas, so I bet unless it becomes a federal law, we will never have that on our ballot. I sure wish it was though. People want to know what they are eating and unless you grow it in your own yard, there is no way to know for sure!
Is there any evidence that GMO's are bad for us? I mean, the benefits are cheaper produce that are resistant to disease and in fact easier to grow. The best part about it is that the cost of living for the poor is heavily decreased as a result, which allows them to to their money in more useful places... like paying bills.
