Nutritional Value
50% drop on averageof the nutritional
Values1950 vs. 1999

“Modernized” Foods
• Natural selection• Artificial selection• GMO• Non-organic foods
– Grown with herbicides– Grown with pesticides
• Processed foods• Proteins
– Feedlot cows– Caged poultry– Animals raised on modernized foods
![Page 5: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Selection
• Natural is the hybridization of food over time
• Artificial is the forced and accelerated hybridization– Sort of GMO– Forced selection of traits
and mutations
![Page 6: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Wheat
• 14 chromosome Einkorn (AA)• 28 chromosome Emmer (AABB)• 42 chromosome triticum aestivum (AABBDD)
![Page 7: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Artificial selection
• Artificial selection was performed by doing thousands of forced hybridizations in the 1950’s and 60’s
![Page 8: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What is GMO?
• Genetically Modified Organism"any living organism that possesses a novel combination of genetic material obtained through the use of modern biotechnology”
![Page 9: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

How is it created?
+ Antibiotic-resistantmarker

L-Tryptophan
• EMS alert in 1989• All came from Showa Denko labs
– Used GE plasmids to make tryptophan– Had also reduced carbon filtration
• Multiple other cases identified prior to 1989• Investigation found the they had been using GE
plasmids since 1984– The current strain was strain #5
![Page 12: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Major Issues
• Not a precise technique, very crude
• Random insertions• Epigenetics or other
activations• Increased energy
consumption• Possible antibiotic
resistance carried along

GM Crops
• 1st GM crop was FlavrSavr tomato– Rats at first refused to eat it– 7 of 40 rats died at 2 weeks– 35% developed stomach lesions
• GM potatoes– Rats developed precancerous cell growths in the
intestine– size of brain, liver, and testes– infection rates, blood sugars, anemia
• Liberty Link corn– Chickens died at 2x normal rate
![Page 14: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
What is Bt?
• Bacillus Thuringiensis – bacteria that produces a protein endotoxin
• Produced inside plant rather than sprayed• Kills Lepidoptera larvae• Thought to be very specific for crop pests• Has been shown to kill Monarch caterpillars when
pollen lands on other plants….bees?• Thought to be safe in humans
– Even if not, digestion will destroy the protein toxin
![Page 15: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Safe?
• Several studies suggest otherwise• CryAb1 toxic in human cell
cultures• Intestinal disturbances• Liver, kidney, spleen, and
pancreas toxicity in animal models• Canadian Study 2011 –
– Present in 93% of pregnant females tested
– Found in 80% of the fetuses

Herbicides & Pesticides
• What are Roundup Ready Crops?• Guess who makes them?• Guess who makes Roundup?
![Page 17: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
![Page 18: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Glyphosate: What is it?
• Herbicide – poisons plants by interfering with an enzyme necessary for making amino acids
• Shikamate pathway is not found in humans, so not harmful………
• BUT
![Page 19: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
But…..
• Plants now concentrate herbicide inside plant• Some of our intestinal bacteria use Shikimate
pathway• Glyphosate has another mode of action
– Chelation of cations• Plants are essentially given AIDS by glyphosate
and they die from infection– Fusarium fungus is common and frequently found
contaminating feed
![Page 20: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
European 18 Country Study
• Urinary Glyphosate levels• 44% of tested population had detectable levels in
their urine• Levels were very low but present
![Page 21: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Glyphosate
![Page 22: Understanding the risks gmo's and modernized foods](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081403/555e9b0dd8b42a0d738b568d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Current Issues
• Gene stacking• Diminishing nutrient values• Combined toxicities• Gut bacteria
– Easily take up transgenes and promoters– Changes to microbial balance
• Survival competition• Micronutrient depletion
– Antibiotic resistance genes– ? Leaky gut– ? allergies

Think you are safe by just avoiding the
veggies and fruit?
