Eat This!




Eat This!

Good Day Folks,


Well its official, this is my first article and I hope it will be informative and helpful in your everyday understanding of the world around you.

I wanted to start with something that I discover not many people are realizing is happening. You see the very fabric of our natural world is under attack. it is under attack by a Corporation that is racking in billions every year through manipulation, deception, lies, coverups, and we are continuing to let it happen at an exponential rate. They are lobbying to end the existence of the Farmer's Market. Yes, they want to eliminate all sources of organic foods off the face of the earth so that they can genetically modify our food. You see once they change a genetic strand of any natural food, then it no longer considered natural. Nature did not add that selective DNA strand for a reason folks. Currently very few countries in the world ban Genetically Modified Foods (GMOs) and they had to take a stand against the  World Health Organization which stands by the safety of GMOs. Well I am here to tell this is false, you being are lied to and deluded on  the safety of GMOs. This companies name is Monsanto. I would be surprised of 1 out of 10 have even heard of Monsanto. I will provide sources below for those that wish to investigate further on the crimes of this very real and very evil Corporation. They wish to change the natural organic world into a genetically modified one. Why would you say? Well once they have created  a genetically modified strain, they can then patent said strain as it considered a newly created piece of intellectual property. Do you see where I am going with this? They want to own our very food. The implications of this is mind boggling to say the least. You might say "Now Bear, that just isn't right?" This is already unfortunately a fact for Corn, yes folks. The very cooking oil in your cupboard is most likely genetically modified. Why should I care you might say? What do GMOs do to the human body. Well nobody knows for sure really because no body thought to test and see if it is safe.

 

The Scary Part....

The only feeding study done with humans showed that GMOs survived inside the stomach of the people eating GMO food. No follow-up studies were done.

Various feeding studies in animals have resulted in potentially pre-cancerous cell growth, damaged immune systems, smaller brains, livers, and testicles, partial atrophy or increased density of the liver, odd shaped cell nuclei and other unexplained anomalies, false pregnancies and higher death rates.


So at this point, you must be asking yourself, how can a Corporation get away with something like this. And reason is simple, Corporate Greed. If anyone thinks Monsanto is out to help the world, they are sorrily mistaken and are perpetuating an ignorance that we cannot ignore! 


How can you avoid them?

 Nobody can avoid all GMOs, in fact it would be nearly impossible unless your a hippy named sunflower who lived at the farm that grew all the organics for the farmers market that Monsanto is lobbying to outlaw in North America. I truly find the notion that they think they can take away our only truly pesticide and genetically modified free options absolutely insane.
 
Here are some rules:

If the PLU is 5 digits and begins with an 8, then it a Genetically Modified Organism
 
If the PLU is 4 digits (even if it begins with an 8) then it is not a GMO 

Of the primary oils in you find in your grocery store the main one is vegetable oil. That’s the cheap one. Don’t buy it; it’s soybean oil. The next one is corn oil. Don’t buy that, because it’s most likely genetically-modified. Virtually all the corn that is used in commercial oils is genetically-modified. Canola oil is potentially toxic and can lead to heart lesions.

To be safe, try instead using olive oil, peanut oil, sunflower oil, or coconut oil in your cooking. These four oils are truly natural, and come from crops that are not yet genetically modified.

  Conclusion


With the advent of pesticides,preservatives, artificial
colors and flavors bringing about the degradation of
our very DNA spawning genetic impurities that
ultimately lead to cancers and genetic diseases that
are passed on to your children we need to be more
vigilant everyday of new products that have been
genetically modified. We as a people not only have to
conscious of own bodies but of those we choose to
feed. When I tell my friend that their eating
genetically modified foods or consuming harmful
man made sugars, I am not looking to tell them what to
do, only to educate them on the not only the current
damaging effects but the long term effects.
Unfortunately it is not known what the long term
effects to the human genome causing by GMOs.
Many people are sensitive to these products and they
invariable incite a multitude of symptoms that your
doctor is happy to prescribe a medication to relieve.
People are not just allergic to an specific matter, we
all have sensitivities to unnatural products that we
consume to some degree and that can cause
psychological problems such as insomnia, anxiety,
depression..etc... and physical problems such as skin
disorders, acne, heartburn...etc Since relief from
these problems are now considered minor and easily
remedied by a visit to your doctor or a trip to local
drug mart we neglect to question why this change
happened. So when did we as a society stop and take
notice that maybe a biological and/or environmental
factor is at play and therefore causing these symptoms
of a greater issue that you are missing. What if you
continue to be to be exposed to your sensitivity for
years and just continue to remedy the symptom. 
You will have compromised biological systems that have been evolving for millions of years.
Be vigilant.
We are human first and foremost.

My First Blog

Introduction


Good Day Folks

My name is Bear and I live in Canada.  I am generally as opinionated as your friends and family however I find more these days I more shocked not only with what is happening to us by the but the lack of understanding the bigger picture of what really going on.
 One point I want to get across right away is I never wish to seek out blame in the travesties and crimes being committed to the human species by the few decadent elite that treat us as though we were sheeple for the slaughter. I only wish to enlighten people and hopefully empower them to make small changes and seek solutions in their lives as I have made in mine and continue to make. 
I find I spend a lot of my time preoccupied with the current conditions of the human species and environment we are forever changing,destroying and creating for ourselves. We are humans, but I have always been reminded by the sentient AI from The Matrix that describes us more like a virus than a mammal. The has been a "splinter in my mind" since I heard the comparison. It is unfortunate that this theory is becoming more relevant every day. We continue to consume and multiply at exponential rates and lack a complete  understanding of what would happen to us and our Earth if continue to obliterate the environment as we have since the beginning of the Industrial Age. Think about the correlations of humans vs mammals instead of placing us in the same species and you will discover we are quite different. Humanities intelligence alone sets us aside from all other lifeforms on earth. I could go on and on but I will keep this article simple. 
I am always reading about new technologies and science and am fascinated by our achievements but in the same aspect I am appalled by the lack of compassion for our own sustainability. The way things are right now, we are at an ecological teetering point of NO RETURN. We have been given gifts beyond my own reason and we choose instead to create a world we cannot live in and expect our children and grandchildren to repair the mistakes of our forefathers. It is time to accept the condition of the world and it is time to empower yourself with knowledge and ideas that could potentially save us from our own destruction. I know, I know, its a hard pill to swallow and I wish my feelings could be chalked up to media driven paranoia but this is not the case. I can see the bigger picture and will attempt to bring you understanding and hopefully and little humor along the way.
