It was some time ago I read in a Science magazine how quickly genetic changes occur in a species with the introduction or deletion of even as benign a substance as B6. The creatures being studied were mice. The genetic changes, and serious ones, began to happen in just one generation when they were deprived of this critical vitamin.
BASF is a german chemical giant (think German Monsanto) that was just ousted out of doing business in Europe by an enormous public outcry of resistance. So they moved their headquarters to Raleigh, NC here in the US. What is their business that Europeans found so upsetting? They genetically engineer foods. These GE foods (or GM for genetically modified) are ones we've been consuming for some time now, if you're a consumer of processed foods - at all. The list of radical damage done to planet and people from this new "food growing technology" is long - and frightening. If you think it won't affect you because you only eat organic foods, wrong again. I invite you, once again, to Dr. Mercola's most recent article. This is huge. Please note, for those who like the "executive summary" version, he provides one on the right at the start of each of his comprehensive articles.
