Conscious Cuisine Begins With Ingredients FREE of Genetically Modified
Organisms!!
November 11, 2011 - [Southern
California] Dietitian and
Producer/Host of Healthy People Radio, Helene Berk, M.Ed., R.D.,
recently spent the day getting trained as a NON-GMO Activist by Jeffrey M.
Smith in Los Angeles, California. Mr. Smith is founder of The Institute
for Responsible Technology and author of "Seeds of Deception" and
"Genetic Roulette". He was recently on Dr. Oz's
television show and has presented in 32 different countries around the globe. Berk's mission is to bring
GMOs to the table on her weekly radio show, Healthy People Radio ~ on Friday
Evenings, 7pm E.S.T. on Z
Talk Radio.
The dietitian admits to wearing
blinders around this issue since her college days. Ms. Berk feels as if she
was brainwashed into believing these companies knew what they were doing. In
the mid-'80's, GMOs
were presented to health professionals and considered safe by professors. It
promised to promised to feed the world, but does nothing but harm everyone but
Monsanto. Berk recently decided to join the NON-GMO movement
because, "Personally, I hate being lied to",
says Berk. "I hate that Monsanto falsified scientific studies in order to
sneak this poison into our food supply. I hate that they smeared
the reputation of any scientist who tried to warn the American public of the
dangers of genetically modified organisms... and what they do to farmers, as
seen in FOOD, INC."
"Genetically Modified Organisms" or "GMOs" were introduced
into our food supply by Monsanto. "The technology splices genes. DNA
or genetic material of one species (e.g., bacteria, viruses, insects) is
randomly injected into an entirely different species of plant or animal
...creating new kingdoms that did not exist before Monsanto started playing
GOD... with our food supply", says Berk. Franken-foods
were NEVER ACTUALLY PROVEN SAFE by the Food and Drug Administration. Instead,
they are self-regulated by Monsanto, itself. In the mid-1990's, WITHOUT THE CONSENT
OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, AND WITH ZERO SAFETY STUDIES CONDUCTED BY THE FDA,
Monsanto began adding GMOs to our food supply: corn, canola, soy, cottonseed
...and now sugar beets and alfalfa. The veteran health pro promises to learn
more about how GMOs are destroying our World and share this information with
anyone who will listen.
The American Academy of
Environmental Medicine (AAEM) urges ALL PHYSICIANS
TO ADVISE PATIENTS TO AVOID GENETICALLY MODIFIED FOODS. This group of
physicians also alerted the public to other Monsanto products which proved
deadly and were removed from the USA marketplace, including AGENT ORANGE &
DDT ~ "There
is more than a causal association between GM foods and adverse heatlh effects.
GM foods pose a serious health risk in the areas of toxicology, allergy and
immune function, reproductive health and metabolic, physiologic and genetic
health" ~ The American Academy of Environmental Medicine ~ http://aaemonline.org/gmop

Genetically Modified Organisms have been
linked to the following:
- infertility
- immune problems
- diabetes / faulty insulin regulation
- accelerated aging processes
- changes in major organs
- changes in the gastrointestinal system
(GI)
- allergies
LET'S OCCUPY
OUR FOOD SUPPLY!!!!
Helene Berk, M.Ed., R.D. states,
"I feel it is my responsibility as a registered dietitian to raise the
awareness of consumers to this 'white elephant' everyone seems to want to
ignore". Let's take the reins back.... let's KNOW WHAT
INGREDIENTS WE PUT INTO OUR MOUTHS!!!! It does not cost food manufacturers
even one penny more, to request NON-GMO INGREDIENTS from their
suppliers. BUT, it is up to us... THE CONSUMERS...TO CREATE THIS TIPPING
POINT. WE MUST DEMAND TO KNOW THE TRUTH!!!!!
For the past two years, Berk
has focused on:
-
"Conscious
Cuisine"
-
"Therapeutic
Cuisine"
-
"Killers in the
Kitchen"
...on
her weekly radio show
She has focused, mostly on
other important attributes of "Conscious Cuisine", which includes AVOIDING THESE INGREDIENTS:
- synthetic ingredients:
- including artificial colors
[derived from the petrochemical industry]
- synthetic preservatives
- synthetic sweeteners
- corn syrup
/ high-fructose corn syrup
[YES, IT REALLY IS THAT BAD
FOR YOU]
- bleached
over-processed sugars, including "brown sugar"
- bleached, enriched refined flours
- trans fats [i.e., look for "hydrogenated" &
"partially hydrogenated"
oils]
- hormones
- antibiotics
- MSG
"We teach what we need most to learn.
And, what I need most, right now, is to learn as much as I can about genetic
engineering. We consumers can create a TIPPING POINT OF DEMAND so
genetically modified organisms are recalled from our food supply!!!", says
Berk. Healthy People Radio will keep it's focus on unveiling the
kernels of truth behind this insidious industry. Tune into Healthy People
Radio Friday evenings, 7:00 pm EST, 6:00pm Central, 5:00pm Mountain,
