Neonicotinoids. How we poison ourself everyday. !MUST READ!

"Neonicotinoids are a class of neuro-active insecticides chemically related to nicotine. The development of this class of insecticides began with work in the 1980s by Shell and in the 1990s by Bayer. The neonicotinoids were developed in large part because they show reduced toxicity compared to previously used organophosphate and carbamate insecticides. Most neonicotinoids show much lower toxicity in mammals than insects, but some breakdown products are highly toxic. Neonicotinoids are the first new class of insecticides introduced in the last 50 years, and the neonicotinoid imidacloprid is currently the most widely used insecticide in the world.

Recently, the use of some members of this class has been restricted in some countries due to evidence of a connection to honey-bee colony collapse disorder. In January 2013, the European Food Safety Authority stated that neonicotinoids pose an unacceptably high risk to bees, and that the industry-sponsored science upon which regulatory agencies' claims of safety have relied may be flawed.

In March 2013, the American Bird Conservancy published a review of 200 studies on neonicotinoids including industry research obtained through the US Freedom of Information Act, calling for a ban on neonicotinoid use as seed treatments because of their toxicity to birds, aquatic invertebrates, and other wildlife. Also in March 2013, the US EPA was sued by a coalition of beekeepers, conservation and sustainable agriculture advocates who accused the agency of performing inadequate toxicity evaluations and allowing the pesticides' registration to stand on insufficient industry studies."

The main use for neonicotinoids is on a crop whose seeds get coated by this substance to form a wax like coating. With this coating the crop is now a GMO crop. This crop is corn. The US uses this type of coated seed for 80% of the nations corn crop. The issue with neonicotinoids in corn crops is the fact that the corn seed coated with this substance will then be able to produce the neonicotinoid insecticide within itself. The pollen of this GM corn is air bound. The pollen from the corn crop that is grown from a neonicotinoid coated seed will produce neonicotinoid pollen. This Pollen can then spread to other crops, trees, flowers and bush. This product was developed by Monsanto and Monsanto is owned by Bill Gates???

With that said, what is the main use for this GM corn? That's right, !!Food!!. It is what you and I eat everyday, in a preset standard of course. It is scary to know that even if the food you eat says organic FACT IS it contains neonicotinoid insecticide. If the product contains any type of corn substance. (corn meal, corn syrup, corn byproduct??). It will include neonicotinoids

So much for the word organic huh? I am really sad knowing that the plants used to make organic meals is made from GM CROPS! Almost everything we eat will contain neonicotinoids. Yes, even your meat! The main source of food for pig, cow and chicken is corn feed.



Now, aside from all the mass dying of insects, fish, turtles, clams, crabs, krill and plankton.... among more then hundreds of thousands of other species these neonicotinoids can inhabit, These neonicotinoids will find a way into your body on a daily basis.



You are being poisoned little by little every single day. If you eat or drink ANY product that contains corn you are ingesting neonicotinoids. The effects and health issues associated with neonicotinoids is not fully known however, it has been proven with study that a build up of neonicotinoids in the body OVER TIME can cause such ailments as chronic fatigue,(always feeling like you do when you first wake up)sleeplessness, asthma, seizures, blood clots, most forms of cancer, runny nose when eating corn based products, anxiety, depression, gastric and colon issues, excess gas even when eating non high fiber or fatty meals, headaches, urinary issues, arthritis and gout.



Everything you read in this post is fact. This is not a conspiracy theory. Research this on your own time and be amazed that we are unknowingly poisoning ourselves. .....until now.....



Keep in mind this is just from corn. I have not included the effects of known issues with fertilizer and the processing plants output of airborne neonicotinoids from fertilizer company's. As I said. Do your own research. I am only here to present fact and to raise eyebrows in hopes that you will teach yourself about this issue. I am not a teacher and I am not good with my communication skills. Please, Please, Please take a few minutes and explore the depths of
