Do you, or someone you know, have allergies, digestive problems, unexplained aches and pains, skin rashes, or other conditions the doctor can’t diagnose or that don’t seem to get better?  The cause of any or all of these just might be the genetically engineered foods (also known as GMOs) you are eating.  Even when you try very hard it is sooo difficult to avoid all of them.  Answer these questions to find out if you’re eating GMOs–you may not have thought of some of these sources.

—Do you ever eat out at a restaurant, mini-mart, or coffee shop that is not 100% organic? Then you probably eat GMOs.

—Do you buy any grocery store foods, fresh or packaged, that are not 100% organic or Non-GMO Project certified? Then you probably eat GMOs.

—Do you buy yard eggs from a local farmer that supplements with conventional (not organic) chicken feed? Then you probably eat GMOs.

—Do you buy any processed or ready-made foods that are not 100% organic? Then you probably eat GMOs.

—Do you buy your raw milk from a farmer that supplements his cow feed (usually while milking) with conventional (not organic) feed? Then you probably eat GMOs.

See how difficult it is to avoid GMOs!

If you ever eat any of these foods, you absolutely must watch this film—Genetic Roulette!  It’s free to watch online through September 22, 2012.  My husband and I watched the film online and then I ordered a copy to keep.  It’s that good and that important!

EVERYONE who wants to be healthy should see this movie.  Even if you think you are already avoiding GMOs, you will probably learn a lot, and you need to know about them for your family and friends’ sake if not your own.

This is a FOOD FREEDOM issue!  We need to know what’s in our food, and, right now, it is very difficult to find out.  Support labeling of GMO foods.

Just a few facts about GMOs:

— FDA scientists repeatedly warned about the unpredictable side-effects of GMOs but they were ignored.
— Thousands of sheep, buffalo, and goats in India died after grazing on genetically engineered Bt cotton plants.
— There have been NO human clinical trials of GM foods.  Animal studies show toxicity.
