Our Genetically Altered Foods (Part Two)
Commentary by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)A perfect storm regarding health issues is building, with purity lost in the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat, constantly becoming more defiled. Among the most insidious dangers we face is the combination of hybridization and genetic manipulation in our food supply. Modern hybridized wheat, planted since the 1970s, is a major trigger of obesity and celiac diseases, artificially stimulating appetite and contributing to the average American being 20 pounds heavier than in 1990, with projections of 40 pounds heavier by 2020. GMO corn, containing the insect-killing Bt gene, poses a major threat to human health, banned in most European countries but constituting 50% of corn grown in the United States across all 50 states. Twenty-five percent of corn and all soybeans produced are fed to cattle, which absorb the Bt gene into their meat, passing it to us when we consume beef. Scores of processed foods contain GMO grains, transferring the Bt gene to us through consumption. Other GMO crops include sugar beets, potatoes engineered with a cholera-inhibiting vaccine, tomatoes, 90% of soybeans, papayas, zucchini, yellow squash, cotton, and rapeseed used for oils. Even aspartame, an artificial sweetener, is produced through genetic combining, and a GMO salmon is nearing the market. Dairy cattle injected with the rGBH hormone further compound the issue. These genetically modified products are widely available, yet labeling is banned, leaving people blind to the dangers. Avoiding them requires careful searching and paying higher prices for organic options, which many cannot afford, making this trap nearly impossible to escape due to urban living constraints, land requirements, and time needed to grow one's own food.
