MONSANTO - SEEDS of DEATH [Watch Full Movie for FREE] • Everyone NEEDS to Watch this •
EDIT: and do not skip over this link -

[link to prn.fm]

"Published on May 24, 2013

In preparation of the global March Against Monsanto, you are invited to watch our award-winning documentary Seeds of Death free.

[link to www.march-against-monsanto.com]

The leaders of Big Agriculture--Monsanto, DuPont, Syngenta--are determined that world's populations remain ignorant about the serious health and environmental risks of genetically modified crops and industrial agriculture. Deep layers of deception and corruption underlie both the science favoring GMOs and the corporations and governments supporting them.

This award-winning documentary, Seeds of Death, exposes the lies about GMOs and pulls back the curtains to witness our planet's future if Big Agriculture's new green revolution becomes our dominant food supply.

A Question and Answer fact sheet deconstructing Monsanto's GM claims and Big Agriculture's propaganda to accompany the film is available online" ... more at link.
 Quoting: video description





EDIT: Seems the link I posted earlier (which contains A LOT of detailed information) is experiencing an "issue" (Database Error) of some sort at the moment.

Below is what I had cut and pasted earlier.

Yes, the quote below is 50% or less of the article - there's a lot of info there.

Below is a list of some of the more important medical findings involving animal trials. Many GMO health risks have been derived from the chemical companies own research

Dr Arpad Pusztai, a renowned biochemist and plant geneticist from the famous Rowlett Institute in Scotland noted that rats fed GM potatoes developed precancerous cells in the GI tract, had atrophied livers, enlarged pancreas, regressed brain, liver and testicle development, and damage to the immune system. Dr. Pusztai, a major scientist opposing all bioengineered crops and plants, argues that this damage is not caused by the insecticide but rather the genetic engineering process itself.

Dr. Hussein Kaoud from Cairo University in Egypt confirmed Pusztai’s research with feeding GM soy, corn, wheat and canola to rats in a study published in the journal Neurotoxicology. The rats in the Egyptian study displayed “shrinkage of kidneys, change in the liver and spleen, appearance of malignant parts in the tissue, kidney failure and hemorrhages in the intestine.” The findings also included a loss in the rats’ “learning and memory abilities.”

Dr. Pusztai’s work complements the 2012 study by Dr. Eric Gilles Seralini at the University of Caens in France. Using the same trial protocol used by Monsanto for its FDA approval of GM Roundup Ready corn, Dr. Seralini’s rats exhibited severe organ damage, most notably to the liver and kidney. Yet the shocking discovery was the enormous tumors, especially to the mammary gland, the rats developed after a steady diet of GM corn. Fifty percent of the males and 70% of the females died prematurely. The fundamental difference between the Seralini and Monsanto study was that Seralini’s trial continued for the rats’ entire life span (up to two years) instead of only 3 months as in the Monsanto study. The length of the trial is especially significant because Seralini and his team did not observe GM corn’s serious adverse effects until the fourth month.

In an earlier study published by Dr. Seralini, his team discovered that Monsanto’s Roundup pesticide will damage or kill testicular cells in rats between 1 to 48 hours after exposure. Roundup is one of the most popular pesticides used today in America’s industrial agriculture industry and the chemical that most contaminates fresh produce.

An even more frightening analysis of GMO hazards was published by Dr. Jack Heinemann, Director of the New Zealand Institute for Gene Ecology, while investigating the Australian government’s GM wheat. The Australian wheat was engineered to silence certain wheat genes of microRNA (SEI genes). Heinemann discovered these silent genes matched human genes and consumption of this GM wheat could halt an invaluable enzyme that would cause death. Children born without this enzyme usually die within 5 years. According to Heinemann, three things are important: 1) plant microRNAs have been detected in human blood meaning that they survive the human digestion tract, 2) these microRNAs survive cooking and processing of food, and 3) laboratory research confirmed that this wheat microDNA silenced the human gene in cultured cells.

In 2011, A Canadian team from the University of Sherbrooke, detected the presence of the insecticidal protein Cry1Ab in the blood of pregnant women (all who were consuming GM foods in their diets) and even in the fetal blood, proving that this toxic insecticide was being passed to the fetus. This Bt toxin is known to kill human embryonic kidney cells. It also hinders our bodies’ immune mechanisms to advance apoptosis, or the death of cancer cells, thereby increasing the risk of cancer.

Dr. Alexi Surov at Russia’s National Association for Gene Security tested fast reproducing Campbell hamsters fed on GM soy over a period of 2 years. By the third generation of mating hamster pairs, the offspring were infertile and hair was growing from their mouths.

Corn and canola has been bioengineered to produce sterile pollen that manufactures a toxin called barnase. Barnase is toxic to human cells and has been shown to cause kidney damage in rats.

In Monsanto’s own studies of Roundup Ready canola, rat livers became heavier from a GM canola diet

York University in the UK wanted to determine why there was such a sharp escalation of soy allergies—10-15% in a single year. Their findings showed that the increase directly corresponded to the UK’s introduction of GM soy into the British food supply.
The Neurophysiology division of the Russian Academy of Sciences discovered that most rat offspring of rats fed Monsanto’s Roundup ready soy died within three weeks.

The company Calgene had to reveal that their own studies for their GM FlavrSavr tomato caused bleeding stomachs in rats during trials.

In December 2012, a new study from Leipzig University noted that Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide negatively impacted the natural GI bacteria in poultry. What was most frightening was that the highly pathogenic bacteria resisted the Roundup while the beneficial bacteria were susceptible to it. This finding may account for the increase in food born pathogens and contaminated meats in the marketplace.

Wait till you get to the part about the EPICYTE GENE at about 25 mins in.

This is a gene that produces antibodies against sperm effectively rendering both males and females unable to re-produce.

This gene can be ingested via any product.

Guess who bought the Epicyte company? DUPONT and MONSANTO and they "commercialized" this gene.

Scared yet?

You can try, but you can not maintain yourself only with organic food. You, and the rest of the world, needs the (simplifying the term) "food technology". No tech = starvation. Did you see what happened in Somalia in 2011 and 2012?

Carbon footprint is a void term.

And last but not least, GM is not toxic. Can you show me one academic study that support what you just wrote?

Wake up? Yes. Everyone should wake up. GM is NOT good for you. Its not good for anyone. And its being rammed down our throats because people aren't informed ... and for the most part, many of them don't want to be.

You can try, but you can not maintain yourself only with organic food. You, and the rest of the world, needs the (simplifying the term) "food technology". No tech = starvation. Did you see what happened in Somalia in 2011 and 2012?

Carbon footprint is a void term.

And last but not least, GM is not toxic. Can you show me one academic study that support what you just wrote?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 40389098


Did you even read the article?

And you certainly can 'maintain yourself' solely on organic foods, although agreeably, that ability depends on your location and lifestyle.

And this is WHOLE FOODS response to GMO,
Which is bullshit

Whole Foods Market is committing to full transparency and standing up for the consumer's right to know by announcing that all products in its US and Canadian stores containing genetically modified organisms (GMOs) must be clearly labeled within five years.

By requiring that all products containing GMOs to be labeled by 2018, we will offer all our shoppers more transparency and the information they need to make conscious choices. We are also stepping up our support of certified organic agriculture, where GMOs are not allowed, and we are working together with our supplier partners to grow our non-GMO supply chain to ensure we can continue to provide these choices in the future.

The prevalence of GMOs in the U.S. paired with nonexistent mandatory labeling makes it very difficult for retailers to source non-GMO options and for consumers to choose non-GMO products. Accordingly, Whole Foods Market does carry products that may have GMOs in them that are not clearly labeled. As we work towards our five-year goal of full GMO transparency, in the meantime, you can avoid GMOs by looking for:

Organic products, since US and Canadian organic standards prohibit the use of GMO ingredients in organic products. 365 Everyday Value® food products. All ingredients derived from plants in our private label line are sourced to avoid GMOs, and hundreds of those products are verified by the Non-GMO Project.Products labeled with the Non-GMO Project Verified seal. We have more of these products to offer than any other grocery store in North America To date there are 3,300 products from 250 brands in our stores that are Non-GMO Project verified, and we have shopping lists available to download on each of our store's web pages. You can also search for verified products at: [link to www.nongmoproject.org]

If a product is not certified organic or verified non-GMO and contains ingredients made from corn, soy, cottonseed oil, canola or sugar beets, you should be aware it could contain GMOs.

We are proud to be the first national grocery chain to set a deadline for full GMO transparency! Since our very beginning, we have always believed that quality and transparency are inseparable and that providing detailed information about the products we offer is part of our mission. We hope this heightened level of transparency helps you make the choices that are right for you.

If you have any further questions please use our on-line response form.

Best regards,

Conspiracionist bullshit!

I can GUARANTEE that 99.9% of all americans DO eat "Monsanto food".

We feed people, what the hack do you do? How do you improve your world?

Wake up kids, 7 billions of persons in the world that YOU live. What we should do?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 40389098


how about not keeping shit like this secret from the public? Monsanto as pretty much pissed off every local farmer in the world. Thats NOT a conspiracy, thats a fucking fact. YOU CANNOT CAPITALIZE ON THE BASIC FUNCTIONS OF LIFE. Its unbelievable the depths these giants go to, to not only 'test' their products, but then have the gall to assume that we're not going to notice when they make us sick, or fat, or dead. Where is your sense of self preservation and common decency I wonder? Because I'm starting to think that simply feeding people 'cheaply' is the ONLY thing you people care about.

Seems the link I posted earlier (which contains A LOT of detailed information) is experiencing an "issue" (Database Error) of some sort at the moment.

Below is what I had cut and pasted earlier.

[link to prn.fm]

Yes, the quote below is 50% or less of the article - there's a lot of info there.

Below is a list of some of the more important medical findings involving animal trials. Many GMO health risks have been derived from the chemical companies own research

Dr Arpad Pusztai, a renowned biochemist and plant geneticist from the famous Rowlett Institute in Scotland noted that rats fed GM potatoes developed precancerous cells in the GI tract, had atrophied livers, enlarged pancreas, regressed brain, liver and testicle development, and damage to the immune system. Dr. Pusztai, a major scientist opposing all bioengineered crops and plants, argues that this damage is not caused by the insecticide but rather the genetic engineering process itself.

Dr. Hussein Kaoud from Cairo University in Egypt confirmed Pusztai’s research with feeding GM soy, corn, wheat and canola to rats in a study published in the journal Neurotoxicology. The rats in the Egyptian study displayed “shrinkage of kidneys, change in the liver and spleen, appearance of malignant parts in the tissue, kidney failure and hemorrhages in the intestine.” The findings also included a loss in the rats’ “learning and memory abilities.”

Dr. Pusztai’s work complements the 2012 study by Dr. Eric Gilles Seralini at the University of Caens in France. Using the same trial protocol used by Monsanto for its FDA approval of GM Roundup Ready corn, Dr. Seralini’s rats exhibited severe organ damage, most notably to the liver and kidney. Yet the shocking discovery was the enormous tumors, especially to the mammary gland, the rats developed after a steady diet of GM corn. Fifty percent of the males and 70% of the females died prematurely. The fundamental difference between the Seralini and Monsanto study was that Seralini’s trial continued for the rats’ entire life span (up to two years) instead of only 3 months as in the Monsanto study. The length of the trial is especially significant because Seralini and his team did not observe GM corn’s serious adverse effects until the fourth month.

In an earlier study published by Dr. Seralini, his team discovered that Monsanto’s Roundup pesticide will damage or kill testicular cells in rats between 1 to 48 hours after exposure. Roundup is one of the most popular pesticides used today in America’s industrial agriculture industry and the chemical that most contaminates fresh produce.

An even more frightening analysis of GMO hazards was published by Dr. Jack Heinemann, Director of the New Zealand Institute for Gene Ecology, while investigating the Australian government’s GM wheat. The Australian wheat was engineered to silence certain wheat genes of microRNA (SEI genes). Heinemann discovered these silent genes matched human genes and consumption of this GM wheat could halt an invaluable enzyme that would cause death. Children born without this enzyme usually die within 5 years. According to Heinemann, three things are important: 1) plant microRNAs have been detected in human blood meaning that they survive the human digestion tract, 2) these microRNAs survive cooking and processing of food, and 3) laboratory research confirmed that this wheat microDNA silenced the human gene in cultured cells.

In 2011, A Canadian team from the University of Sherbrooke, detected the presence of the insecticidal protein Cry1Ab in the blood of pregnant women (all who were consuming GM foods in their diets) and even in the fetal blood, proving that this toxic insecticide was being passed to the fetus. This Bt toxin is known to kill human embryonic kidney cells. It also hinders our bodies’ immune mechanisms to advance apoptosis, or the death of cancer cells, thereby increasing the risk of cancer.

Dr. Alexi Surov at Russia’s National Association for Gene Security tested fast reproducing Campbell hamsters fed on GM soy over a period of 2 years. By the third generation of mating hamster pairs, the offspring were infertile and hair was growing from their mouths.

Corn and canola has been bioengineered to produce sterile pollen that manufactures a toxin called barnase. Barnase is toxic to human cells and has been shown to cause kidney damage in rats.

In Monsanto’s own studies of Roundup Ready canola, rat livers became heavier from a GM canola diet

York University in the UK wanted to determine why there was such a sharp escalation of soy allergies—10-15% in a single year. Their findings showed that the increase directly corresponded to the UK’s introduction of GM soy into the British food supply.
The Neurophysiology division of the Russian Academy of Sciences discovered that most rat offspring of rats fed Monsanto’s Roundup ready soy died within three weeks.

The company Calgene had to reveal that their own studies for their GM FlavrSavr tomato caused bleeding stomachs in rats during trials.

In December 2012, a new study from Leipzig University noted that Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide negatively impacted the natural GI bacteria in poultry. What was most frightening was that the highly pathogenic bacteria resisted the Roundup while the beneficial bacteria were susceptible to it. This finding may account for the increase in food born pathogens and contaminated meats in the marketplace.
