Very good information. The video is well worth your time (6:45 minutes).
I think it is possible to explain the digestive malfunction in simpler terms than is done in the article. And hope someone will correct me if I’m wrong.
One of the postings under (Health) Mercury poisoning, dental amalgams explains what I think is essentially the same phenomenon quite well. I’ll try to find it and put it here as “related”. Simply stated:
What goes down our esophagus is normally broken down by the flora in our gut into ingredients that our bodies need, and in a form that we can use. An absolutely essential process for health.
The poisons (Roundup residues in food, mercry, etc.) disrupt the functioning of the gut. Ingredients are passing into the blood stream in forms that are very detrimental to health, more noticeable in the long term and not usually diagnosed for what it is.
EXCERPT:
By Dr. Mercola
The more we learn about genetically engineered (GE) foods, the clearer the dangers become. I’ve warned you of the potential dangers of GE foods for many years now, as I was convinced that the artificial combining of plants with genes from wildly different kingdoms is bound to cause problems.
As the years roll on, such suspicions are becoming increasingly validated. In recent weeks, we’ve not only learned that GE corn is in no way comparable to natural corn in terms of nutrition, we’re also discovering the ramifications of dousing our crops with large amounts of glyphosate — the active ingredient in Monsanto’s broad-spectrum herbicide Roundup.
GE crops are far more contaminated with glyphosate than conventional crops, courtesy of the fact that they’re engineered to withstand extremely high levels of Roundup without perishing along with the weed.
A new peer-reviewed report authored by Anthony Samsel, a retired science consultant, and a long time contributor to the Mercola.com Vital Votes Forum and Dr. Stephanie Seneff, a research scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has fortunately received quite a bit of mainstream media attention.
Their findings, along with the development of another breed of “gene silencing” crops, makes the need for labeling all the more urgent, and the advice to buy certified organic all the more valid.
