  1. I did have experiencing of having allergic reaction and a symptom of urinary infection from eating those non-organic or GMO foods and from fast food restaurants. So then, I stopped eating them, and my symptoms have stop immediately after I switches to organic foods.

      I agree A CATAL. My family switched to all organic and so many of our maladies went away.

    Good article, Christina, thanks! May I call your attention to the fact that glyphosate use is NOT limited to Round-Up ready crops? Check out “crop dessication” — glyphosate has been sprayed on MANY grain crops since the 1960s, in order to force the seed-heads to all come to maturation at the same, most profitable moment prior to harvest. Interestingly, how glyphosate works is it interrupts photosynthesis. This may explain why our soils are dead or dying…. and also, possibly, the epidemic of Vitamin D deficiency in humans! PS: The beer industry had to require NO glyphosate useage on hops plants because it was ruining American beer! (as IF, eh?)

    1. But not until the farmer is ready to HARVEST the crop because the Roundup KILLS the crop allowing it to be harvested earlier and dryer. Grain Millers, one of the top buyers of grain from farmers’ cooperatives in the US and Canada just said they will no longer accept oats killed with Roundup. The grains fall apart due to lack of proper maturity when they steam them and try to roll them. Here is Monsanto’s guide for farmers to kill crops for early harvest using Roundup. http://roundup.ca/_uploads/documents/MON-Preharvest%20Staging%20Guide.pdf

    2. My reply posting a link to the Monsanto document showing how they are teaching farmers to use Roundup to kill crops before proper time to harvest appears to have been removed by the system. I also talked about how Grain Millers, a large grain purchaser of grain for human food is refusing to buy oats harvested in this way because it is sub-standard in quality. You can find that document at Roundup (dot) ca

        This is common practice. Farmers are smart and can figure ways to use the tools offered them in clever and unorthodox ways. Making everything ‘mature’ at the same time so it can be harvested while their equipment is in the area is a ‘no-brainer’.

  3. The crop these men are spraying is NOT one that is genetically modified to withstand Roundup. It looks like some kind of grain like oats, wheat or rice. I wish people would use REAL pics for what they post about. My sister-in-law had many miscarriages. My brother regularly loaded the yard with Roundup.
