School lunch tests reveal dozens of pesticides on single items, heavy metals, other toxins

by Lisa Fletcher, Andrea Nejman, and Nathan Aaron - ABC News On Your Side

Kids rely on school meals every day, but almost nothing is known about what's really in school lunches, including invisible ingredients that could harm developing bodies and brains. In a months-long investigation, we tested school lunches and found concerning results, just like the ones that are currently gaining the attention of Congress.

In America’s schools, 30 million lunches are served every day. There are standards in place for things like calories, sodium, and added sugar. The USDA asserts that lunches consumed from schools are the most nutritious.

GM Soybean Oil Damages Liver and Kidneys

https://www.rcpath.org/discover-pathology/news/fact-sheets/histopathology.htmlReposted from gmwatch

New rat feeding study is further proof that GM soy isn’t substantially equivalent to non-GM soy. Report: Claire Robinson

A diet containing GM soybean oil damaged the liver and kidney of rats in a new 90-day feeding study conducted by Iranian scientists. The study provides further proof that GM soy is not substantially equivalent to non-GM soy, meaning that regulatory authorisations given on the assumption of equivalence are invalid.

The study, by Horyie Taheri of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences and colleagues, was conducted on 18 male rats in three different groups (6 rats per group). One group was fed a diet containing 10% GM soybean oil for 90 days, while the other two groups served as control groups, receiving either non-GM soybean oil or a standard lab diet, respectively.

By Carol Grieve', 今の食品の完全性

Food Integrity Now invites you to read this very informative article by Mary Chantler about how to lose weight without taking drugs, like Ozempic. Thank you Mary for this great information!

If you live in the US, chances are you have heard about Ozempic, Wegovy or other current weight-loss medications that are known as “anoretics” or appetite suppressants. Many celebrities are taking them currently and they are the secret behind Oprah Winfrey’s new slimmer physique. They are expensive, but surprisingly easy to get a prescription for.

We will go over the risks of these drugs and why they can occur, the ways in which you can stimulate these satiety hormones in your body naturally, and what you can do to avoid some of the risks if you are already taking these drugs.

By Joseph Mercola - Editor's Note: This article is a reprint. It was originally published 12月 24, 2016.

Story at-a-glance

  • The documentary “Poisoned Fields — Glyphosate, the Underrated Risk?” chronicles the risks of glyphosate to human health and the environment
  • Researchers found severely restricted, damaged root growth among plants growing in fields treated with glyphosate for more than a decade
  • Farmers also noted correlations between glyphosate in animal feed and rates of miscarriage, deformities in piglets and infertility among farm animals

Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Bayer’s (formerly Monsanto) Roundup, is an herbicide like no other, as more tons of it have been sprayed worldwide than any other herbicide before it. Writing in Environmental Sciences Europe, scientists noted that in the U.S. and likely globally, "no pesticide has come remotely close to such intensive and widespread use."

September Letter from The Director - Loss and Wins

The farm, the garden, and many aspects of our society are in a time of change. As the jewel-colored tree leaves dance into their glory and begin to fall to the ground, we are reminded of the dramatic transformations that we, as living beings inevitably go through. Nothing ever stays the same. We are all growing, old ways are falling away, we hibernate, reflect, and grow, and new ways will spring up, continuing the cycle of life.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) introduced the Safe School Meals Act (SSMA), legislation to protect children from harmful toxics in school meals. The bill would place limits on heavy metals, ban certain pesticide residues, trigger the safety reassessment of food additives including artificial food dyes that have been linked with health harms, and ban the use of PFAS, phthalates, and bisphenols in school meal food packaging. The bill would increase the funding available for schools to purchase safe school meals.

USDA Greenlights GMO Wheat Without FDA GRAS Approval

Moms Across America is dismayed for our farming community and American citizens. Four months after Brazil approved GMO wheat, the USDA has quietly approved GMO wheat for growing in America. No doubt due to heavy lobbying by Big Ag, GMO wheat may be on the market within a few years, without labeling, in our food supply.

Open Letter to Kamala Harris and Donald Trump

Moms Across America is thrilled that for the first time in voter history, thanks to environmental lawyer and MAA advisor, Robert F Kennedy Jr., that childhood chronic illness is now a primary Presidential platform issue.

Never before have we seen any presidential candidates from any party speak so vehemently about the issues that we have been discussing for nearly 13 years. Our children's health is in a state of crisis in America. Without health, we have nothing else - we cannot do our jobs, go to school or church, procreate, or have healthy relationships and communities. We cannot have a vital military and be a world power. Without mental, physical, and reproductive health many other issues such as abortion, gun control and the economy are almost moot points. If we do not have sound, healthy policy regarding safe, non toxic and nutrient dense food and safe medicines, we cannot expect our citizens to be able to procreate, protect their families be able to have babies), or earn money independently.

Poison is not Partisan - be our partner to protect all children

I often feel exhausted by the continual news of new ways that Big Ag industrial farming practices are contaminating our food system and families. Hummus, tampons, chocolate, and even sperm were recently found to be contaminated with agrochemicals and heavy metals. These poisons are in almost everything!
