Ruminations

The Austrian Agency for Health and Food Safety has published the results of a long-term study, carried out by Veterinary University Vienna, in which mice were fed with genetically modified (GM) corn developed by the Monsanto Corporation. The study found that GM corn led to lower fertility and body weights. The principle GM crops are soy, corn, cottonseed and canola. GM sugar from sugar beets will also be introduced before year’s end.

Of course, 100% grass-fed and finished beef does not have any exposure to genetically modified (GM) crops of any sort.

Here is a link to the study.

In an Oct. 31 article from the  NY Times about contaminants in food in China, I must point out it seems so simple. We must eat animal protein from animals raised without introduction of any feedstuffs, thereby eliminating Mad Cow Disease, E. coli contamination, GMOs, antibiotics, pesticides, herbicides, and on and on.  Can this be any clearer?
