Guest guest Posted January 8, 2001 Report Share Posted January 8, 2001 Dear Herbalists, In case you did not realize the harm that the CRY 9C Genetically Engineered Corn can do - and why I have not eaten corn for two years (I have been very active as a Volunteer of the Organic Consumers Association) I would like to define the word .....anaphylaxis............................ " anaphylaxis " n. increased sensitivety to the action of a normally nontoxic protein upon injection with it for the second time, sometimes causing severe or even fatal shock. Serum sickness in humans is an instance of relatively mild anaphylaxis. The FDA KNEW that the above corn variey caused this. And, they released the corn to be fed to animals. By mistake, the corn was put into many human packaged products. There are Huge silo's of corn sitting in the States now with corn from 1998 and 1999 crops. The US. Gov. does not know what to do with it because it cannot be sold overseas. They will not buy GE Corn The seed for this corn was Genetically Engineered and sold to the Farmers. In some cases, where the farmers did not want to plant such corn, blackmail ( " we will tell the bank to call in you loan if you do not buy our GE seed " ) and extortion was used to get the farmer to plant the GE corn. There are documented cases of such extortion and black mail. The companies responsible have been named. Monsanto was my particular target. These, and other chemical companies, are still being given grants by the Government to " develop new varieties " . Farmers who plant GE crops recieve Gov loans easily. Organic Farmers are lost in a maze of red tape and have difficulty getting loans. In spite of this - Organic Farming has increased dramatically. You pay more for Organic food because the government is subsidizing (with your tax dollar) the production of poisonous Genetically Engineered Food. The FDA supports the big Chemcial giants becasue of the " revolving door " policy. Work for the Gov and pass the chemical companies requests and you will get a good job or even a huge cash settlement in a few years time and live a great life on the beaches in Florida.. The way to break this monopoly is simple. You have the tool in your hand, Your money. ONLY BUY ORGANIC FOODSTUFF If your store does not stock Organic foods, cut out any item describing the harm that GE foods do and send it to the Manager. Put it up on a Bulletin board. (Put a copy up as it will be torn down fairly soon). And tell others. You may be saving the life of your neighbours child if you give them this information. BUY ORGANIC. The farmers are actually with us. Support them. BUY ORGANIC. .........(YOU MAY REPRINT THIS ARTICLE AND SEND ON IF YOU WISH)................................Love Penny Khaled (VOLUNTEER - ORGANIC CONSUMERS ORGANISATION) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 10, 2001 Report Share Posted January 10, 2001 I never eat corn. Had a really bad allergy to it, that may have been why! I have the occasional organic corn chip with salsa though now.
