I have been following the work of Dr. Matthias Rath since
he worked with Linus Pauling and developed their cure for cardiovascular
disease back in the 90"s. Their program is the one I
use to keep my arteries crystal clear and free of plaque and
damage, verified by my cardiologist last Sept.
He lives in Europe now and has been focusing his work on
cancer. He has a new book out entitled Victory Over Cancer. I
have been following his research in this area as well and have been
using it in my own health program.

"The doctor of the future will prescribe no drugs, but will interest
his patients in the care and nutrition of the human frame and in the
cause and prevention of disease." - Thomas Edison
Genetically Modified Organisms, or GMO's, are foods that have been genetically engineered to hold up to special pesticides better. The seeds are altered and then patented so, in essence, companies like Monsanto can own the seed and the pesticide used on that seed. Ownership of seeds is very controversial. Small independent farmers are being forced, in some cases, to use these seeds and there have been law suits because of it.
These foods have been out for a while but they are not labeled as such. People are becoming more and more unhealthy because they seem to be toxic to the immune system and allergies to these foods are becoming more and more prevalent.
Over 40 countries require labeling of these foods but not yet here in the US. It's a big battle.
Dr. Mercola is helping promote a grass roots effort, as are others, to allow THE PEOPLE to have the final say on whether these foods should be labeled GMO's and not thought of as NATURAL.
Please watch his video below. I have also listed the top 10 GMO foods for you to print and copy.
1. Corn - Corn has been modified to create its own insecticide. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has
declared that tons of genetically modified corn have been introduced for
human consumption. Monsanto has revealed that half of the US sweet
corn farms are planted with genetically modified seed. Mice fed with GM
corn were discovered to have smaller offspring and fertility problems.
2. Soy -
Soy has also been genetically modified to resist herbicides. Soy
products include soy flour, tofu, soy beverages, soybean oil, and other
products that may include pastries, baked products and edible oil.
Hamsters fed with GM soy were unable to have offspring and suffered a
high mortality rate.
3. Cotton -
Like corn and soy, cotton has been designed to resist pesticides. It is
considered food because its oil can be consumed. It's introduction in
Chinese agriculture has produced a chemical that kills cotton bollworm reducing the incidences of pests not only in cotton crops but also in
neighboring fields of soybeans and corn. Incidentally, thousands of
Indian farmers suffered severe rashes upon exposure to BT cotton.
4. Papaya -
The virus-resistant variety of papaya was commercially introduced in
Hawaii in 1999. Transgenic papayas comprised three-fourths of the total
Hawaiian papaya crop. Monsanto bestowed upon Tamil Nadu Agricultural University in Coimbatore, India, technology for developing papaya resistant to the ringspot virus in that country.
5. Rice - This staple food
from South East Asia has now been genetically modified to contain a high
amount of vitamin A. Allegedly there are reports of rice varieties
containing human genes to be grown in the US. The rice will create human
proteins useful for dealing with infant diarrhea in the 3rd world. China Daily,
an online journal, reported potential serious public health and
environmental problems with genetically modified rice considering its
tendency to cause allergic reactions with the concurrent possibility of
gene transfers.
6. Tomatoes -
Tomatoes have now been genetically engineered for longer shelf life by preventing them from easily rotting and degrading. In a test conducted
to determine the safety of GM tomatoes some animal subjects died within
a few weeks after consuming them.
7. Rapeseed - In Canada, this crop was
renamed Canola to
differentiate it from non-edible rapeseed. Food stuff produced from
rapeseed includes rapeseed oil (canola oil) used to process cooking oil
and margarine. Honey can also be produced from GM rapeseed. German food
surveillance authorities discovered as much as a third of the total
pollen present in Canadian honey may be from GM pollen. In fact some
honey products from Canada were also discovered to have pollen from GM
rapeseed.
8. Dairy products -
It has been discovered that 22 percent of cows in the U.S. were
injected with recombinant (genetically modified) bovine growth hormone
(rbGH). This Monsanto created hormone artificially forces cows to
increase their milk production by 15 percent. Milk from cows treated
with this milk inducing hormone contains increased levels of IGF-1
(insulin growth factors -1). Humans also have IGF-1 in their system. Scientists have expressed concerns that increased levels of IGF-1 in
humans have been associated with colon and breast cancer.
9. Potatoes -
Mice fed with potatoes engineered with Bacillus thuringiensis var.
Kurstaki Cry 1 were found to have toxins in their system. Despite claims
to the contrary this shows that Cry1 toxin was stable in the mouse
gut. When the health risks were revealed it sparked a debate.
10. Peas -
Peas that have been genetically modified have been found to cause
immune responses in mice and possibly even in humans. A gene from kidney
beans was inserted into the peas creating a protein that functions as a
pesticide.

"The doctor of the future will prescribe no drugs, but will interest his patients in the care and nutrition of the human frame and in the cause and prevention of disease." - Thomas Edison
I have had my health site online for nearly 10 years. It was a culmination of 25 years worth of knowledge in my clinical work with people when I started it. I have been publishing HealthBlogger since 2005. I wanted to get this information out to help improve the lives of those that cared to read it. For all that time I have been sharing the latest information on how hormones control obesity and that calories in and calories out is not the whole truth. In fact, it is far from it. On this page I show the research on Insulin and Metabolic Syndrome. http://cwiechert.com/SyndromeX.html On this page I outline how Glucagon and Insulin are the main culprits in the war on fat. http://cwiechert.com/weightloss.html This information was from the top minds and researchers at the time and has been confirmed by the latest research of Dr. Lustig. It has since been updated in a new series called The Skinny On Obesity. This series is a MUST WATCH... You really need to know this information, and make the appropriate changes in your lifestyle.
