In Far away United States of America, the war against Monsanto, the food giant that spearheads the research into and production of genetically modified foods, foods manufactured using the activities of genetically modified organisms, GMO. Their Congress The debate was that, the fact of an overwhelming evidence that genetic modified foods are harmful to humans, and government immunity In fact, in recent times, there has several several products produced by GMO should be labeled so that Americans have a choice in deciding whether to buy the GMF or the naturally produced foods. recalls of shelf foods due to the fact that they were deemed to have used undeclared chemicals in their production.
Salmonella is the main causative agent for diarrhea. For example, American federal and state regulators are seeking legal sanctions against farmers in Maine, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and California, among others. These sanctions include injunctions, fines, and even prison sentences for farmers who fail to join the genetic bandwagon.
The biotechnology giant Monsanto began to genetically alter corn to withstand its activities in trying to round up their weed clearing agenda-or herbicide roundup, as it is generally referred to. The goal was to eradicate weeds but not crops and resist a corn pest called the corn borer. These small changes in the deoxyribonucleic acid, DNA, the building blocks of proteins in the body, of the corn are expressed by the plant as proteins. Those proteins act as allergens, provoking a disorder marked by the overproduction of a type of white blood cell called an eosinophil.
According to my findings, due to cross-pollination through winds, birds (1990s, and today, 88% of corn, and 93% of soybeans, are the transgenic varieties. , and bees, there 's no such thing anymore as a GMO - free corn crop in the US "It' s almost impossible to find a corn in the United States that does not have the [protein] in it, "Dr. Mansman, an allergist who works in a Virginia hospital, told an American Magazine.
Beyond all the hype, beyond all the gobbledygook, GMFs have become stable and shelf food in Europe and America, and the idea has been acceptable in other parts of the world. In fact the Nigerian National assembly has hurriedly passed the bill to back the genetically Former President Goodluck Jonathan set up a committee to vet the so called biosafety bills passed to the National Assembly before he could sign it into law. Then, participants at the 10 th anniversary of African Agricultural Technology Foundation, AATF Even Olusola Saraki, a senator and chairman senate committee on environment and ecology, who is currently the Senate President , decried the delay in signing the bill into law. "a a matter of fact, the benefits of signaling the bill into law by Mr President are numerous," he sa "Further inclusion of regulating the safe application of biotechnology in Nigeria to harness benefits in fields of agriculture, medical, environment sustainability and industrial growth." According to him, since 1996, biotechnology-driven crops had existed steadily, with over 8.5 million planting them in 21 countries, with most African countries developing biosafety.He also noted that all over the world, scientists, Therefore, it is the need for Mr. President to assent to the bill in the field of our nation and the attendant economic and employment opportunities that come with it, "he had said." If this feat is achieved, Nigeria, as a nation, would be sufficient in food production and theby, save the cost of annual food importation and diversification same into a value chain mechanism.
Most food literature focuses on poor nutritional quality of canned and pre-packaged food, which is the Chemicals found in food packaging are unhealthy-as, for example, Bisphenol A, or BPA. This chemical has been taken from baby bottles and sippy cups in The contents of BPA actually leaches into the food ___ ___ 0 ___ ___ ___ 0 This effect of leaching BPA are most likely detrimental for pregnant women, babies and children. This chemical has been linked with obesity, cancer (breast and prostate), early onset of puberty, Attention Deficient Hyperactivi ty Disorder ADHD and retardation of development of brain and nervous systems. And monsanto and other companies are at Apart from BPA, Aspartmine is another chemical. Aspartame has been linked to several different cancers and even degenerative brain conditions. Consuming aspartame regularly will burn out neurons and even brain tumors. It is considered as a healthy and sweeter alternative to sugar, though it is causes diabetes and may also cause obesity. It was developed in a bio-weapons laboratory from excrement from bacteria culture and bleached with other chemicals by Monsanto corp It is currently sold under brand name and used in food seasonings. Originally sold by Monsanto Corp, is now being re-branded under different names There are currently some efforts underway to include aspartmine in milk and so called diet products - "low sugar" or "sugarless" drinks, even though aspartame is contained in many products already that do not list it as one of the ingredients. "by introduction of genetically "says Dr. Leo d & # 39; Souza, a Jesuit priest and biotech researcher." Human fears, whether genuine or irrational, have to be attended to. "These "For example, The Daily Trust Editorial of 26 June 2013 was more critical of the bill." It may come as something of a survivor "The paper continued:" Still, even in advanced nations that have pioneered the soil and that large quantities of fertilizers and hazardous chemicals are required to successfully cultivate them. And for the developing world, Without these allegations about Gi crops portend another challenge companies in the West for seeds imports to replant as some of the crops do do not have seeds or those with seeds can not produce high-yield varieties when they are planed. The disadvantages of the crops are satisfactorily addressed, it would be premature to expose Nigerian farmers to GM seeds when the technology is still in its infancy in the country, if at all. "" the advent of the oil boom nearly four decades ago, successful governments have paid scant attention to agriculture "" the paper insured that the main challenge now. as a national security issue.. Efforts should also be made to find a solution to the huge post-harvest losses that farmers suffer.If these and many other steps are taken, the country may in the end find it does not have any need for inorganic substances like GM crops to feed the people, "the paper concluded.
"A group known as the Mother Earth Foundation frowned seriously in the proposed bill." Contrary to the claims of the {minister of science and technology], Burkina Faso has not introduced GMOs into their food. "That country planed genetically engineered engine cotton other called Bt Cotton. Was a big disappointment as the farmers got short fiber cotton rather than the long fibers that they harvested from the South Africa to companies to toe and the difficulties in ensuring a transition from certain to rough. a Nigerian conglomerate, has high GMO corn contents. They are Nigeria rather than making an announcement of backdoor moves to tobashi Nigerians into eating GMOs without their consent. "They are that the broad dependence on chemical inputs have led to the death of pollinators like bees and saddled the world with silent farms and fo "Certainly Nigeria does not want to join the ranks of nations that hire or buy bees to pollinate their farms," Bassey noted. "We are not sure also that Nigerians want to toe a path that "Yes, Monsanto may soon be in Nigeria", may lead farmers to pollinating their crops by hand, "he concluded." Federal minister has recently shown that one of the GMO companies has been approved to open up an office space in the country. a source from the Ministry of Agriculture said, "the honorable minister is all taken up with the program."
According to a report, "GM-fed females had an average of 25% heavier uterus than non-GM-fed females, a possible indicator of disease that need further investigation. Fed on The new study lends scientific credibility to anecdotal evidence from farmers and veterinarians, who have for some years reported reproductive and digestive problems in pigs fed on a diet containing GM soy and corn. Pigs have basically the same digestive structure with humans, and pork is a stable food in most countries. Most of these pigs are eaten by humans with accumulated GMO passed on to humans who consume them.
But the final effect will be disaster to mankind, because, in every new time, every distortion of natural order will be violently corrected, resulting in so many hitherto unknown diseases. Unfortunately, this will coincide with the time of total economy, amid political crisis and natural disasters in a time that was described as a time of great tribulations.
