Sprouting GMO Food Wars

My sense is that Jeffrey Smith is actually winning. Pushing consumers ever closer to the tipping point of lining up with their European counterparts and rejecting GMO foods. Jeffry Smith continues to evangelize causing wonderment not just in environmental circles, but also in publishing circles as well. To avoid having his research squashed with kill fees, he has been self-publishing to resounding success. Of course their are a number of international best selling authors at any given point in time. There aren’t many self-published authors with international bestsellers.

And he seems like such a normal unassuming guy, and yet people hear him speak, and they get it. If the American markets become hostile to these Frankenfoods, the days are numbered for companies like Monsanto that are pushing ever harder to get their Genetically Modified Organisms into our food, our bodies and into the environment. Jeffrey Smith states simply:

Working with more than 30 scientists worldwide, I documented 65 health risks of GM foods. There are thousands of toxic or allergic-type reactions in humans, thousands of sick, sterile and dead livestock, and damage to virtually every organ and system studied in laboratory animals.
