This is from the rally before speaking inside the shareholder meeting.

One of the most important interviews I have ever conducted for understanding the root cause of the health crisis in America was with Dr.Matt Buckley on enero 12, 2015.

GMOs, genetically modified organisms were put in our food, unlabeled in 1996 and are now in 85% of America's food through corn, soy, sugar, cotton seed oil, canola oil, some squash and Hawaiin Papaya. Genetically modified foods are either genetically engineered to BE a pesticide and when the bug eats the crop, it's stomach explodes. BT GMO corn is registered with the EPA as a pesticide. OR GMOs are genetically engineered to WITHSTAND herbicides, so that the crops can be sprayed and all the weeds will die but our food will not. The problem is that the chemicals do not dry off, wash off or cook off as was once believed. We eat them.

The most widely used herbicide in the word is Roundup which contains glyphosate. Glyphosate is now considered a generic chemical and is used in over 1600 products world wide and hundreds of million of pounds are used in the USA. There was a 73% increase of the use of Roundup in 2013 alone. This is attributed to two things, 1) the crops have developed  resistance and farmers are sparaying more chemicals earlier and more often to reduce the weeds. 2) Agriculture journals are recommending farmers spray Roundup ( glyphosate) as a drying agent at harvest, to speed up the harvesting process. They spray non GMO, non organic crops such as wheat, legumes, peas, beans, tea, sugar and more. Glyphosate is also sprayed pre harvest and many crops such as beries and potatoes absorb glyphosate. You can see the complete list of allowable levels of glyphosate on our food and feed crops at EPA List of Allowed Levels of Glyphosate on 160 Food Crops

For more information on glyphosate, which a a patented antibiotic (weakens immune system), chelator (vitamin and mineral deficiency) and endocrine disruptor (infertility, sterility, micarriages and birth defects), go to our Data page.

 A written synopisis is below.

Around 19:00 Dr. Buckley explains:

Recent studies showed that glyphosate destroys the beneficial gut bacteria and allows the pathogenic bacteria to thrive. Glyphosate in our food and gut equals and increase of bad bacteria, especially clostridium botulinum infections.
The pathogenic bacteria overgrowth...and die off..releases waste products (what makes you feel sick) and the lipopolysaccarides released by pathogenic bacteria is a known agent to break down intestines. When the lining of intestine is broken down this allows the lippopolysaccarides to enter the  blood stream which alarms the immune system.  The immune system then releases interlucken 1B  a Cytocon. When this occurs on periperphary of body, that signal is transmitted through the vegus nerve from the gut to the brain.

This signals the immune cells of the brain, the microglia, to also secrete their own interleukin 1 B and glutamate in the brain and spinal cord. Glutamate is an excitotoxin and destroys neurons. This type of damage in the brain and immune system is being shown to be a major factor in all neurodegenerative conditions, including Alzheimer's, Autism, anxiety, depression, Parkison's, MS; and if it happens in the spinal cord this appears to be a major factor in ALS. Read more in his blog here.

Dr. Buckely recommends an organic Paleolithic diet,which is primarily vegetables,seeds, meat, fish, and small amounts of fruit, while excluding grains, dairy, starchy carbs or sugar, which feed the pathogenic bacteria. He agrees that adding raw organic sauerkraut (good bacteria) will offset the bad bacteria and help heal the gut, provided fungal overgrowth isn't excessive. My family eats 1-2 tablespoons of raw organic sauerkraut every day. Probiotic supplements also restore gut health but I reminded the audience in the video that many probiotic companies buy their probiotics from Dianesco which was bought out by Dupont (Dupont also makes the pesticides/herbicides sprayed on our crops, so they have a perfect profit circle). So make sure to ask before you buy.

By eliminating the toxin/antibiotic glyphosate from the food that goes into the gut (by eating organic) which destroys the good bacteria, adding in fermented vegetables and probiotics (good bacteria) and by starving the bad bacteria of sugar, we can restore our gut bacteria and therefore regain our health.

Doctors and health experts agree that the key to the health and survival of the human race is our gut flora. Without healthy gut flora we are all sure to get sick and likely die much sooner than is necessary. It is also key to our mental wellness...healthy decisions, relationships, and fulfilling on our potential in life and as a country. Moms Across America requests that everyone LOOK TO YOUR FOOD.

Are you eating as organic as possible? Good budgeting can result less expensive, more healthy meals by eating organic at home! (One source of support is a book called " 15 minute Healthy, Organic Meals for Less than $10 a Day")

Are you adding in good bacteria via feremented (cultured) foods with every meal? Raw organic saurkraut, organic yogurt or keifer, organic miso, organic kimchi or keifer water soda are the best sources of probiotics.

Are you diminishing the overgrowth of bad bacteria? Eliminating sugar and carbs upon which bad bacteria thrive restores your gut flora and improves your health.

If everyone takes responsibiliy for their own health and their children's in these ways, we can collectively reduce the impact on our families, communities and nation. We can turn this health crisis around and restore the future of America.

To be a leader for the health of YOUR community host an event with Moms Across America.  Share this information and make a difference for generations to come! Some event ideas are:

1) Host a GMO Movie night or Cultured Food Party and empower your friends and neighbors.

2) Have a table/booth at your local Earth Day Festival in April and reach thousand.

3) Host a Moms Meetup mayo 2, 2015 and help cause a billion dollar shift to organic.

4) Be a leader for a group to join in 4th of July parades and reach tens of thousands in your town.

See our Events page for more info on all these events.  

Make sure to POST your event on MAA with your address as the host so we can send you free materials if/when we get enough sponsorship support!

Thank you for spreading the word!

Moms Across America asked the committed activists who  passed GMO FREE Humbolt County CA to please give us their perspective on what makes a successful campaign. When you are wondering "What's Next? with our cause consider working on having a GMO free zone in your county. We are inspired by your commitment and tenacity! Thank you supporters of Measure P!

 Thanks to Moms Across America supporters; our sponsors and private citizens donating thousands of dollars in three days to pay for testing, Glifosato has been found in feeding tube liquid which is given to babies and children with cancer in hospitals.

Microbe Inotech lab detected 6 out of 20 (30%) of Pediasure samples from the same batch tested postive at levels above 75ppb at 800-1110 X higher than has been shown to destroy gut bacteria in chickens (.1ppb).  Only 50ppT ( trillion) was shown to cause liver, kidney and sex hormone changes in rats. These samples were sent by a Moms Across America supporter.This is the exact brand used in the pediatric rehabilitation hospital where she worked and was fed patients needing tube feeding in critical care.

Moms Across America finds it appalling that our health care providers have been led to believe this feeding tube liquid is safe. Our children and loved ones who are depending on our health institutions to support their immune system and recovery. Instead they are being fed a liquid which scientists and knowledgeable care givers now believe is doing the exact opposite.

The Pediasure Enteral Nutritional Drink tested is loaded with GM corn syrup, soy, and sugar, which have been shown to cause inflammation, and are sprayed with gyphosate during the growing season and at harvest as a drying agent. See EPA allowable levels glyphosate on 160 of our food crops here.

Glyphosate is scientifically accepted to function as a quelante; which draws out the vital nutrients of any living thing it touches.

It is a patented Antibiótico; destroying gut bacteria, where 70% of the immune system lies, and the body's ability to create Tryptophan/Serotonin, and Melatonin, which regulate insulin/diabetes and protect from sleeplessness, depression, bipolar and violent behavior.

It is a proven endocrine disruptor; which impacts, deforms or halts the development of a fetus, leading to miscarriage, birth defects, infertilityand sterility.

It is also  a cell disintegrator; breaking down the blood brain barrier and allowing toxins into the brain, (correlating the rise of autism with the increased use of gyphosate as close as 99%.)  

The rise of autism is 99% correlated with the increased use of glyphosate. New studies find glyphosate also feeds antibiotic resistant bacteria.

Pediasure Enteral Nutritional Drink samples for Glyphosate detection by ELISA assay. Detectable level 75 ppb. Lab report here.

A description of how glyphosate impacts the body from MIT PhD. scientist Stephanie Seneff:

1) Glyphosate is an antimicrobial agent (antibiotic) and it perferentially kills the good bacteria, which causes an overgrowth of pathogens in the gut. This leads to leaky gut syndrome and inflammatory issues.

2) Glyphosate chelates rare minerals like manganese, cobalt, molybdenum, copper, iron, sulfur, selenium, etc., and this disrupts the management of these very important nutrients throughout the body.  The minerals end up piling up in the wrong places, causing both toxicity and deficiency at the same time.

3) Glyphosate disrupts cytochrome P450 enzymes in the liver, which are important for many things, two of which are activating vitamin D and detoxifying multiple toxic chemicals and drugs.  Acetaminophen (tylenol), for example, becomes toxic when these enzymes aren't working.

4) Glyphosate works synergistically with the aluminum, mercury, and glutamate in vaccines to cause much greater harm than would be the case if there were no glyphosate present in the blood when the vaccine was administered.

5) Glyphosate interferes with the shikimate pathway, which is used by both microbes and plants to produce the essential aromatic amino acids. Our own cells don't have this pathway, and they depend upon food sources and synthesis by gut microbes to supply these nutrients. They are precursors to many biologically important molecules such as the neurotransmitters serotonin, melatonin, and norepinephrine as well asmelanin, vitamin E, vitamin K, etc.

In my view, the core pathology in autism is insufficient sulfate in the cerebrospinal fluid in the brain.  This causes severe impairment in neurogenesis and an inability to "clear the trash."  It's indirectly caused by sulfur deficiency, melatonin deficiency, impaired sulfate synthesis, impaired sulfate transport, and excess flushing of sulfate through the kidneys - all induced by glyphosate.  There's also neuroexcitotoxicity from glutamate and glyphosate and aluminum working synergistically.

Further comments on the findings:

This report is absolutely ground breaking for parents everywhere. We need to keep our children safe from these toxic chemicals. Our regulatory agencies have failed us and have let Roundup be carelessly used for too long. The worse part? The American public doesn't have the right to know which food doesn't have it. This must stop and is reason enough to avoid the use of any GMO technology that is tied to this chemical.- Vani Hari, Food Babe

Once upon a time, just one generation ago, all food was organic. When a mother bought corn on the cob or apples for her family she had no doubt that she was buying healthy food. When she picked up a box of cereal she didn't bother to read the label because she trusted that it has passed the food regulations set forth by our FDA and USDA and that anything sold in the grocery stores was perfectly fine to eat. Sometimes she read the label because she was avoiding too much sugar or salt, but besides that, the long looking words she couldn't pronounce she didn't think twice about. They must be fine.
She never even considered that there could be something in the food that was not labeled. She never imagined that the food manufacturers would be allowed to do such a thing. It never occured to her.
Over the past twenty years, it has become apparent that there is something in the food that is not disclosed: genetically modified proteins, put in our food since 1994, which are engineered to withstand toxic chemicals. GMOs have been hidden from us.
Many resist this idea. They don't want to know. It would unAmerican to not trust the system. Plus, it would be inconvenient. Suddenly, if we want to avoid these genetically modified organisms we would have to scrutinize our food, change food brands that have become family traditions, budget and spend more to buy NON GMO Project verified and Organic and be suspected as a left wing hippy conspiracy theorist.
This is the reality that brave Americans are willing to face. It is NO a reality that our representatives and committee members of the Energy and Commerce Hearing faced in the hearing for HR 4432 which would make GMO labeling voluntary on a federal level, wipe out state labeling laws, and allow a "100% Natural" label to contain GMOs.

Busloads of people at the Rayburn House   Alexis of OCA,Rally organizer

Attendees for the Energy and Commerce Hearing regarding HR 4432 or the DARK Act,
Denying American's Right to Know, came from across the country, lined the halls of the Rayburn house in Washington DC at 7 am. The Organic Consumer's Association, funded the buses to the rally and along with many other grassroots and non profit groups, rallied their supporters for weeks to rearrange their schedules, take two days off work, ride on a bus for hours to days to be at the hearing and rally to stop HR 4432. We came because we care about having integrity on our food labels, knowing what we eat and having our state rights protected. We came because we want GMOs labeled and then elminated from our food supply along with the related toxic chemicals. We came because we have seen an increase in health issues in our loved ones, and we see them get better when they avoid GMOs and eat organic. We came because we love.

Mom and girls from Michigan!

I arrived at 8 am and was told with 90 seats available I was likely to get in. The crowd gathered. I handed out our MAA flyers to people in line and was told I could not because of terrorism like Anthrax. I asked, "You mean I can't hand out pertinent
information to the hearing, as a US citizen on federal property?" "Not if you don't want to be escorted off the property right now. I am sure you don't want that."
He had no idea what I wanted.
It took everything I had not to continue to hand out the flyers.

As I returned to my place in line -- fuming, I noticed a very distinctive difference between the local law students and paid sitters and the activist who traveled from more than 20 states to attend the hearing. There were at least 80 individuals in the front of the line in suits, dresses and crisp striped shirts... bored, blase and talking aimlessly... and hundreds more activist citizens in sweat shirts, hats and black and red bandanas... excited, focused and passionately intense about just getting in the doors of the hearing. They were eager to be a part of our government process.

We were sorely dissapointed. Only 52 got in because the other seats were reserved. Nicole from GreenAmerica got in. A few others on the pro GMO labeling side got in. I was there from California (Thanks to Benny Olvera my sponsor)  two hours early and we were positioned 3 people away from the allotted seats but did not get in.

Groups of activists walked to the front of the line and challenged the fairness of being denied entrance.We later learned that many students were paid 40 dollars a head to be there and did not even know why.... they had no idea that they were being used by the corporations just as a shell of a body. Their presence was blocking the inclusion of dedicated Americans who wanted with every fiber of their being to just be in the room.

After the heart break of not getting in to the hearing after a day of travel, as I am sure hundreds felt, my friends and I decided to wait in case some people left the hearing, as we would then be able to take their place. My friend was told if she wanted to get in she had to change her shirt that said "I love my life" because it was a message. Apparently you can't love your life in a federal building hearing. She changed her shirt in case we could get in.

We waited. I watched the first panel, (Watch the hearing here) the pro GMO side speak on live stream for nearly 1 hour and 20 minutes on my cell phone. As I sat on the cold stone floor, my heart sank further with every minute. I was later told I could not sit, that it was "an act of protest" so I stood again and watched the hearing with shooting pain in my feet.
I saw the entire council panel speak favorably of GMOs and deny concern over health safety. I saw our representatives completly sold out on GMOs. I saw the Tennesse Senator (in red) say she "is interested in food looking good because we eat with our eyes... and I am interested in yield." She later left  during first panel. I tried to talk to her as she passed by me. She was immediately angered. I asked her to look up the studies on our Momsacrossamerica.com and told her our kids were sick and she walked away faster. I was again so disappointed.
.
My battery ran too low for me to continue watching. I was distraught that we had come all that way and were missing it. We were told the first panel had left and the second panel had started but no one had left the hearing. It was most likely none would.
It was 12:30.We had been there for 4.5 hours. We reluctantly decided to leave, eat lunch and meet with our fellow activists at the nearby church gathering. There I reconnected with wonderful people from all over the country.

I had an opportunity to address the crowd (see speech here) and request that they take action in their own counties. The response was resoundingly positive. We were not going to give up. I was enlivened and thrilled to meet leaders from all across the country. Their excitement touched my soul and their dedication left me inspired.

Later, after dinner, I watched the second half of the hearing and my expectations of being represented in the hearing were destroyed. The second panel, I was hoping would be on our side, but it wasn't. It was devastatingly dissapointing. Speaker after speaker just defended GMOs and proclaimed their safety. Even the Vermont co sponsor for the GMO labeling bill and the EWG ( Environmental Working Group) representative clearly proclaimed that they did not have concerns about the safety of GMOs.It was infuriating. I did not hear them speak up to protect our health or state rights. It was a travesty of justice. The hundreds of people who traveled thousands of miles to be there were not fairly represented.

The hearing was set up to be one big propaganda discussion of GMOs.

It was an opportunity for the opposition to scold the EWG.

It was a failure of the US government to protect the people. It is my opinion that the committee members out right lied. I am sure every single one of them is aware of at least one, if not all, of the studies showing harm from GMOs. Every single one of them has heard of the soy comparison study documenting the significant difference between GMO soy and non GMO soy. Every single person in that room was aware of GMO material difference and safety concerns regarding increased pesticides. (Click for link to studies)  It was an appalling example of how corporationshave flat our bought our government.

But this does not mean it was not worth it for every person who came all that way. Our gathering was powerful for us. It was an important act of commitment, generosity and freedom. It galvanized our strength and deepened our appreciation and connection we have for each other. Together, we will be successful. It is time for us to step it up.
It is time for us to stop waiting for other organization heads to speak for us. It is time to stop hoping and start being THE ONE.

I may be disgusted with the system but I will never give up. I don't regret a second of going to DC and I would do it again, earlier, louder and with more supporters. Our efforts in DC are never a waste. Don't use the mess our government currently is in as an excuse not to clean it up. This is OUR COUNTRY!

How can you BE THE ONE in your town? Ban GMOs? Ban Pesticides? Get your school, church or neighbors to switch to organic? Visit with your representatives and congress members and bring them the studies showing harm from GMOs that apparently they never heard of? What ever you do, do something. Because this is our country, our children and our future.

The chemical companies only have power because they have money. And they get their money, essentially from us.

If we don't buy their toxic food, they can't sell it!

It's up to us.

It is the actions of all of us, one at a time, that make the many of us strong and undauntable. Together we can do this.

Thank you for your dedication!!!

Special Thanks to OCA for organizing this wonderful gathering of committed people and to supporter Benny Olvera for sponsoring my trip there.

Six months ago today, junio 1, a few days after we met with the EPA, I requested per my right as a US citizen, by way of the Freedom of Information Act, to receive copies of all of the documents submitted to the EPA regarding glyphosate. Never in my life did I imagine I would be asking for potentially thousands of pages of scientific studies about a toxic chemical. I loved science when I was in sixth grade, and even imagined being one someday. However I did not think I was good at math, all the rote learning without understanding was more condescending than the looks my math teacher gave me, so I dismissed the possibility of being a scientist and headed down a more artistic path as a designer.

Comunicado de prensa global de hoy desde Londres 

A $25 million international study on GMO and pesticide safety was announced today. The ‘Factor GMO’ study will investigate the health effects of a genetically modified (GMO) crop that has been in our food and animal feed supplies for many years. It will answer the question: Is this GMO food and associated pesticide (Glyphosate / Roundup) safe for human health?

New Open Letter from America to UK regarding "Living with GMOs" announced Today

      
 Sobre la carta de América

 La Carta de Estados Unidos es una carta abierta única a los ciudadanos, políticos y reguladores del Reino Unido y el resto de la UE sobre los peligros de los cultivos genéticamente modificados.

Esto es relevante para todos nosotros en el Reino Unido y el resto de Europa porque nuestros políticos y reguladores actualmente deciden si plantar OGM y, bajo la presión de los cabilderos de la biotecnología y las negociaciones comerciales como el TAFTA / TTIP, si relajar las regulaciones en torno la importación y venta de OMG.

Europe has held out against GMOs for a very long time. If it gives in now, efforts in the US to successfully campaign against GMOs, to get GM foods labelled, and to try to get them out of the farming and food system are likely to collapse.

The letter is signed by thousands of notable citizens, health orgs, scientists and doctors.
Please sign!

Firme también la NUEVA Carta Internacional Abierta a China, el mayor comprador mundial de cultivos transgénicos, el mayor productor y exportador de glifosato.

This thorough letter lays out eight points proposed to China to be the leader in restoring health and safety to our food supply and citizens. It is an amazing compilation of solutions by the world's leading GMO researchers, scientists, veteranariens and farmers.

Estimados votantes de Oregon y Colorado,

Esta carta le llega de una madre voluntaria, que representa a miles de mamás a sabiendas y millones de mamás sin saberlo, con niños que padecen autismo, alergias, autoinmunidad, asma, obesidad, diabetes, enfermedad de Crohn, síndrome del intestino irritable y cáncer. 1 de 2 de nuestros niños, de hecho, hoy en día tienen alguna forma de enfermedad crónica en Estados Unidos. (1) Puede pensar que esta es una estadística alarmista, y quizás quiera dejarla de lado, pero es la realidad de nuestro país, es la lucha diaria de millones. Es lo que ven los médicos en sus prácticas y lo que ven los maestros y las enfermeras escolares en las escuelas. Hemos recibido miles de experiencias personales de madres sobre la creciente epidemia de enfermedades infantiles en los Estados Unidos.

What does this have to do with you? Especially if your child or grand child or nephews or nieces are not sick? Why should you care? Well, your child's or grand child's or niece's or nephew's future spouses are out there, in our American population, mostly likely eating GMOs, which are unlabeled foreign proteins untested to be safe on humans. In fact, there are thousands of studies now showing harm from GMOs to animals.  Moms Across America has over a thousand responses to our survey, most of which share that the mother believe GMOs are causing harm to our children. (2) They see this through trial and error of elimination of GMOs through diet.

We see our children get better from removing GMOs from our children's diets by eating organic. We see allergies, autism, asthma and auto immune issues that represent as rashes, disappear. What we don't see is whether or not their reproductive organs have been harmed from the exposure to GMOs that they have already unknowingly endured. This is of concern to us parents because we know that rats in Russia fed GMOs were sterile by the third generation. (3) We know that pigs in Denmark had a 30% miscarriage, infertility, sterility and loss of young rate when fed grains sprayed with Glyphosate. (4) 80% of GMOs are engineered to withstand Roundup (contains Glyphosate) and are therefore doused with this chemical which does not wash off. We know that the USA also has a 30% failure to conceive rate, the highest in recorded history and 85% of our processed food is GMO.(5) We believe GMOs and related chemicals are drastically impacting the health and future of America.

We want our children to be able to experience the profound love that it is to be able to create their own child someday and have their own healthy family. If you vote no on noviembre 4 to GMO labeling, you may be voting for the demise of the American people and a future we cannot afford. This is not fear mongering, this is the scary reality that we must have the courage to face in order to transform it.

That which we cannot be with, we cannot transform. Let's be with this for a moment.

20 Dentro de unos años, se predice que 1 de 2 nuestros niños con autismo (6) también estarán vinculados al glifosato, que se introdujo en nuestros alimentos con OGM al mismo tiempo que los médicos "estaban inundados de niños con autismo". Dentro de 13 años, no nos quedará dinero en el presupuesto de atención médica de EE. UU. Para otra cosa que no sea diabetes si continuamos al ritmo actual. (7) El cáncer es la principal causa de muerte de nuestros niños en Estados Unidos en la actualidad. (8) Más niños mueren de cáncer cada año que personas mueren en 9/11. Nuestras tasas de aborto espontáneo, mortinatos y pérdida de crías deducidas del censo de EE. UU., Significa que 2 millones de bebés se pierden cada año, 379 a día, 3.8 bebés por minuto. Uno solo puede preguntarse cuál será nuestra tasa de abortos espontáneos y defectos congénitos dentro de 20 años ... ¿podríamos duplicar o cuadriplicar esa tasa que nuestro diagnóstico de autismo, diabetes, colitis y enfermedad de Crohn? Si las cosas continúan como están, seguiremos teniendo más de lo mismo.

What will our society be like if we allow this? How will our families, educational system, military and economy function with 50% of our children severely compromised and even more chronically ill or sterile? We do not have to be a scientist to know this is not in our best interest. We know this is not what mothers and father and concerned citizens want. We know that citizens of Oregon and Colorado want health, integrity in our food, labeling and freedom from being controlled by chemical companies just as much as citizens in other states do. We know you want the truth and you want to protect your loved ones.

Lo que no sabemos es qué alimentos son transgénicos cuando recogemos el paquete.

What many people still don't know is what a GMO is or to avoid them and that it is in fact engineered to either BE a pesticide, with the toxin inserted into the DNA of the plant with a virus or bacteria, infecting every cell of the plant, or it is engineered to resist herbicides, therefore allowing it to be repeatedly sprayed with chemicals. One of these chemicals, Glyphosate is described by Dr. Don Huber as  essentially giving the weeds AIDS, destroying their immune system. This chemical does not wash or cook off. We eat it. Our children eat it and our babies drink it in breast milk. We found Glyphosate levels over 1600 x higher than is allowed in the drinking water in Europe. (9) These levels are far above what has been shown to cause liver, kidney and sex hormone changes in rats and to destroy gut bacteria in chickens. Our gut bacteria is where 70% of our immune system lies. It is no wonder our children are getting sick!

Uno no tiene que esperar para "saber" a través de años de pruebas científicas, que los defensores de los OGM se han negado a hacer, que los OGM y los pesticidas / herbicidas relacionados están causando un daño grave a la salud de nuestros niños. Uno solo tiene que mirar qué son y cómo funcionan estos inventos relativamente "nuevos" (en comparación con miles de años exitosos de agricultura sin ellos) y qué está sucediendo con nuestra salud en Estados Unidos. Debemos reconocer que esta ciencia se basa en suposiciones de hace veinte años que ahora están desactualizadas. Debemos reconocer que hay una crisis de salud en Estados Unidos relacionada con nuestra comida y un desconocimiento en los consumidores para prevenirla. Debemos tomar medidas de precaución y ser "Más vale prevenir que curar".

We do not have to wait for more testing. We do not have to wait for a "better" labeling law. We do not have to fear higher costs of groceries (the reality is a penny per day) and we do not have to be confused by the LIES that out of state chemical companies are feeding you from the fruit of their greed...tens of millions of dollars made by selling Americans cheap, toxic food and by selling farmers toxic chemicals to spray on the food crops. They are protecting their profits.

Le pedimos que proteja a sus hijos, a nuestros hijos y al futuro de Estados Unidos votando SÍ a la etiqueta noviembre 4.

Con las etiquetas viene la responsabilidad. ¿Por qué deberían pagar miles de millones el precio de su salud en beneficio de las ganancias de unas pocas empresas químicas?

Podemos hacer algo AHORA. Puede votar SÍ en 105 y 92. Podemos causar veracidad en el etiquetado e integridad en nuestra comida. Podemos empoderar a los padres y a las personas que alimentan a las personas para que tengan la libertad de elegir comprar alimentos etiquetados con o sin OGM, independientemente de si pueden pagar orgánicos o no.

Les pedimos que tengan fe en nuestros agricultores de que pueden cultivar y cultivarán como se ha hecho durante miles de años, sin productos químicos tóxicos, cuidando la tierra y poseyendo y plantando libremente sus propias semillas (10).

Les pedimos que confíen en las madres de nuestra comunidad y voten SÍ. Tenga fe en nuestra fuerza como estadounidenses para cambiar el rumbo de la codicia y el beneficio para la salud de la gente y el futuro próspero de Estados Unidos.

Thank you.

Mamá de 3 niños que se han recuperado de las alergias y los síntomas del autismo al eliminar los transgénicos y comer alimentos orgánicos.

Hace seis meses entregamos la información a la EPA de que se ha encontrado glifosato en nuestra leche materna en niveles sorprendentemente altos.

¿Qué han hecho al respecto? ¿Qué harán ellos?

Este producto químico es un quelante (deficiencia de vitaminas y minerales), un antibiótico (destruye las bacterias intestinales y puede debilitar el sistema inmunológico) y es un disruptor endocrino (defectos congénitos y abortos espontáneos). La EPA también ha registrado que causa daño hepático y renal. Médicos y científicos de renombre lo han relacionado con el linfoma no Hodgkins y con un aumento del cáncer.

Ver artículo que describe niveles más altos de cáncer, defectos de nacimiento y abortos espontáneos alrededor de campos fumigados con glifosato en Córdoba, Argentina.

And the EPA has still not acted to protect our children and citizens.

Cuando me reuní con la EPA el mayo 27, cumpleaños de Rachel Carson (autora del libro histórico "Silent Spring"),

Neil Andersen compartió: "Mi trabajo es aprobar productos químicos y evaluar el riesgo potencial de daño humano y ambiental".

No, Neil, tu trabajo no es el primero en aprobar productos químicos. Es PROTEGER el medio ambiente y a las personas PRIMERO. No prestar un servicio a las empresas químicas para que puedan obtener beneficios. Trabajas para EE.UU. 

El problema es que la EPA sólo recibe noticias de las empresas químicas todo el día, lo que influye en la EPA para que trabaje para ellas. Necesitamos que usted tome dos medidas hoy.

1. Call them today and say,

"Han pasado SEIS MESES desde que descubriste que hay glifosato en la leche materna, ¿QUÉ estás haciendo al respecto? ¿Cómo nos estás protegiendo?"

We want them to make statement that pregnant or breast feeding mothers should avoid glyphosate and eat organic. AND we want them to revoke the liscense of glyphosate and Recall Roundup Immediately.

 Tenemos una necesidad URGENTE de tomar medidas y detener esta sustancia química. La EPA está a punto de aprobar el glifosato por otros 15 años y una combinación tóxica de glifosato y 2,4-D (la mitad del agente naranja) como la "próxima ola" de sustancias químicas más fuertes.

For the first time ever, Dr.OZ created a Petición to the President to do exactly what we want, STOP THE TOXINS! STOP Enlist Duo from being approved! With 100K signatures by octubre 22 the rule is that the President has to respond.

For the first time ever, on Monday Sept 22, Dr.OZ took a stand and started a petition for America to stand up against toxic chemicals.



40,000 people signed the Dr.OZ Petition to the President in ONE day! 
What if we could make it 100K in a week???!!!
We are SERIOUS about stopping this toxic product Enlist Duo from being sprayed on our food crops and near schools!



Enlist Duo contains Glyphosate (an antibiotic, chelator and endocrine disruptor...read: weakened immune system, vitamin and mineral deficiency and birth defects and infertility...yes, really) AND 2,4-D ( half of Agent Orange, you know, the chemical that killed 400K in Vietnam and gave birth defects to 500K more) and they want to SPRAY THIS ON OUR FOOD...and on fields just feet away from our schools!

Dr.Oz said "I am very concerned we are at the beginning of a catastrophe."
WE could avert it.
We could share, text, call and ask every friend we know to SIGN this petition.



I was invited to be on the  show and share our message on the stage with Dr. Oz.

It was an eye opening experience. Dr.Oz's courage and committment is in disputable. The Dr.OZ staff are brilliant, committed and impeccable in their attention to detail. I was deeply honored to be a part of the show and be a voice for Moms. It is a groundbreaking episode and moment for America...this is what Dr.OZ did represents for our cause:

A major day time TV figure explains how GMOs=more pesticides.

A prominent doctor  takes a stand against toxic chemicals! 

A mainstream talk show host inspires mainstream America to GET INVOLVED and sign a petition!!!

What a joy to be a part of this.

My story about my children, whose health issues;allergies and autism symptoms, all improved greatly by going GMO free and organic, is OUR story, the story of Moms all across America who are realizing what has happened to their kids. Although criticized for being anecdotal, I ask the reader...who do you trust more? A mom who's only special interest is the well being of her family? Our a corporate chemical giant or GMO scientist who stands to lose their bonus for their beach home?

What I say, what hundreds, if not thousands of our moms say now, about their children's symptoms of allergies, autism, asthma, auto immune disorders and more, all getting better by going GMO free and organic is REAL. No GMO scientist, skeptical reporter or paid blogger is going to convince any of us that what we see before our very eyes is not real. Isn't that what science is about? Observing the reality? 

Why do we share this? We share because Moms care. It is not enough for my children to eat organic. My son's future spouses are out there somewhere, eating the 85% of processed foods which are GMO and sprayed with Glyphosate. We know the third generation of rats that ate GMOs were sterile and that pigs who consumed glyphosate on grains miscarried 30% more and had higher birth defects and smaller litters.

I want my son's future spouses to be able to procreate if they wish someday, and to experience the profound love that it is to have their own child. That love is is what life is all about. It is why Moms do what we do. And we will not stop, we will not give up. The love for our children will never end!
