The research is starting to expose the real dangers that have been linked to a multitude of health issues such as autism and leaky gut and possibly even cause cancer according to The World Health Organisation.

Jono has personally been affected by the autoimmune issues and has dived head first into restoring his gut health with predominantly organic bone broths. Gut flora is king in your body and is a huge contributor to your overall health. Glyphosate has been linked to destroying gut flora as it is an antibiotic, which can then lead to things like leaky gut, Celiac disease, autoimmune and even has been linked back to autism. It is estimated that 92% of corn and 94% of soy grown in the U.S. are genetically modified. Research conducted by The Institute for Responsible Technology and The Environmental Working Group, have uncovered an assortment of links between GMOs and health issues such as intestinal damage, inflammation, and even death.

You'll find higher levels of pesticides in GMOs than in Non-GMOs. This is due to the fact that GMO crops are designed to be able to spray more herbicides and pesticides without damaging or killing the crops in the process. It sounds like a clever idea but is extremely detrimental to the environment and our very health as plants and weeds have become resistant to the chemicals used to kill or knock them back, just like how we humans build an immunity to antibiotics over time. This resistance means that the farm must spray even more toxins on than before to get the same effect. This increases the amounts of toxins carried over into the crop and its harvested produce. The high levels of toxins can trigger and aid the development of an autoimmune disease.

GMOs are designed to withstand toxins such as Monsantos Roundup herbicide. Glyphosate the key ingredient in the herbicide Roundup which just happens to be the most commonly used herbicide in the world, you've probably hear of it or even use it yourself. Glyphosate has weevilled its way into almost anything you can think of from drinking water to wine, from food to breast milk. Its usage is so out of control and socially accepted that we risk poisoning ourselves and those around us when we use it or consume anything that is GMO or non-organic.

Since glyphosate was introduced in 1974, 1.8 million tons have been applied to U.S. fields, and two-thirds of that volume has been sprayed in the last 10 years.

Designed to kill bacteria, glyphosate doesn't know the difference between good bacteria and bad bacteria nor can it tell the difference between soil and human. As Glyphosate is patented as an antibiotic new research has concluded that Roundup (and other pesticides) promotes antibiotic resistance. Research has shown that chronic low-dose oral exposure to glyphosate disrupts the balance of gut microbes, which creates a chronic inflammatory state in the gut and an impaired gut barrier. Research also uncovered that already in 1981 Monsanto knew in that glyphosate caused non-cancerous tumours that affect various organs (adenomas) and carcinomas (a form of cancer) rats. It has also been stated in a report by the World Health Organization that glyphosate probably causes cancer in humans.

Leaky gut has been linked to GMOs and Glyphosate exposure. The Bt-toxin, an insecticide which is produced by GMO crops kills insects as it destroys the lining of their digestive tracts which has been found to happen in humans. Holes poked in the human digestive tract from the Bt-toxin causes leaky gut which can lead to autoimmune diseases and other health issues.

There is an abundance of studies, information, reports and cases that shine a light on the negative and detrimental lifelong effects that GMO and exposure to Glyphosate can have on our gut health and overall wellbeing. Choosing Organic means you are eating meat that has never been fed or been exposed in pasture GMO crops and feeds. Choose the best for you and your health by choosing Organic.
