Do We Know What The Are Putting In Our Food and Have You Asked?

 
We are sicker today than we were a generation ago. From childhood cancers to autism, birth defects and asthma, a wide range of diseases and disorders are on the rise. This leaves little room for doubt; pesticides are certainly one key driver of this sobering trend.

If you take a look at the picture below it make you think for a second about what they are putting on our crops. And if it is an environmental cause that’s contributing to our health issues, we certainty want to know, don’t you?.

Does what this guy is spraying seem safe to you? Why is he wearing a mask? A sufficient amount of evidence is now pointing to the fact that agricultural pesticides (among various other environmental toxins) might play a large role in the rapid increase in our health especially in the past few decades. We want to bring more awareness of these facts that have yet to make big news in the world of mainstream medicine.

Case in point: It is commonly believed that Roundup is among the safest pesticides… Despite its reputation, Roundup was by far the most toxic among the herbicides and insecticides tested. This inconsistency between scientific fact and industrial claim may be attributed to huge economic interests, which have been found to falsify health risk assessments and delay health policy decisions.

The change in how agriculture is produced has brought, frankly, a change in the profile of diseases. We’ve gone from a pretty healthy population to one with a high rate of cancer, birth defects and illnesses seldom seen before. Even the tobacco companies denied the link between smoking and cancer, and took decades to recognize the truth. The biotech and agrochemical corporations are the same as the tobacco industry; they lie and favor business over the health of the population.

What’s appalling is that we have known about these dangers for decades yet have done little about it.

Are you awake Yet?
