YIA Newsletter, GMO Food and Your Gut

Hi Friend


We know that numerous medications interfere with your gut health, but
what’s depleting your body’s ‘good’ bacteria may go even further.
Researchers have found that a deadly strain of bacteria created by the
biotech industry is likely growing in your digestive system. As many
experts have suspected, GM foods tainted with the omnipresent agrochemical,
Roundup, are causing widespread changes in the microbiome of those who
consume them.

The changes to our gut flora has long been linked to genetically modified
food consumption, but this study points to an exact culprit which results
in a wide array of lethal disease. The study to confirm this is titled,
“The Influence of Glyphosate on the Microbiota and Production of
Botulinum Neurotoxin During Ruminal Fermentation.”

GreenMedInfo previously reported that a deadly bacteria which grows with
biotech herbicide use was causing “dysbiosis (pathogenic alteration of
gut bacteria), a condition which profoundly affects and alters the
so-called holobiont, or total set of organisms plus human cells that make
up our bodily constitution, and as a consequence, health.”

Our gut bacteria has been carefully crafted by Mother Nature for ages so
that we could thrive in an environment containing a host of microbes.
Scientists have even studied 700-year old poop, analyzing 14th century
petrified human feces to understand the human digestive system more fully.

If the delicate balance of our gut bacteria is altered, we can only expect
disease.

The exploding gluten sensitivity epidemic, for instance, is likely a direct
result of the increasing prevalence of glyphosate-tainted food, a topic
recently explored in a collaborative paper produced through Sayer Ji,
Jeffrey Smith, Stephanie Seneff, Tom Malterre, and Dr. Tom O’ Bryan.
Though antibiotics are the primary culprit for destroying healthy gut
bacteria, GMOs are right there with them, wrecking havoc on our health.

The forthright MIT senior scientist Stephanie Seneff has said the following
on this topic:

    “The way glyphosate works is that it interrupts the shikimate
pathway, a metabolic function in plants that allows them to create
essential amino acids. When this path is interrupted, the plants die. Human
cells don’t have a shikimate pathway so scientists and researchers
believed that exposure to glyphosate would be harmless.” 

But now we know through this study, that glyphosate interferes with the
microbial communities that form the basis for our digestive health,
altering its complex functioning in a manner that interferes with the
production of basic amino acids and neurohormones, giving the harmful
bacteria carte blanche to run freely through our intestinal tracts.

The harmful bacteria in question? A highly pathogenic Clostridum botulinum
strain, which:

    “. . .causes dysbiosis which favors the production of botulinum toxin
in the rumen. The global regulations restrictions for the use of glyphosate
should be re-evaluated, and is the most acutely toxic substance known, and
that despite the fact it is FDA-approved for use “cosmetically,” e.g.
Botox injections, it is being looked at as a potential bioweapon because it
only takes 75 billionths of a gram (75 ng) to kill a person weighing 75 kg
(165 lbs). It has been estimated that only 1 kilogram (2.2 lbs) would be
enough to kill the entire human population.”

Still not certain whether GMOs shouldn’t be peddled across nations like
snake oil? Consider the motives that might be behind such a toxic
substance, and act according to your own edified instincts.

All the Best,
Dan
