Seeds of Deception: Exposing
Industry and Government Lies About
the Safety of the Genetically
Engineered Foods Youre Eating by
Jeffrey M. Smith
A Must Read!
This explosive exposé reveals what the biotech industry doesn’t want you
to know—how industry manipulation and political collusion, not sound
science, allow dangerous genetically engineered food into your daily diet.
Company research is rigged, alarming evidence of health dangers is
covered up, and intense political pressure applied. Chapters read like
adventure stories and are hard to put down: - Scientists were offered
bribes or threatened. Evidence was stolen. Data was omitted or distorted.
- Government employees who complained were harassed, stripped of
responsibilities, or fired.

- Laboratory rats fed a GM crop developed stomach lesions and seven of
the forty died within two weeks. The crop was approved without further
tests.
- The only independent in-depth feeding study ever conducted showed
evidence of alarming health dangers. When the scientist tried to alert the
public, he lost his job and was silenced with threats of a lawsuit. Read
the actual internal memos by FDA scientists, warning of toxins, allergies,
and new diseases—all ignored by their superiors, including a former
attorney for Monsanto. Learn why the FDA withheld information from
Congress after a genetically modified supplement killed nearly a hundred
people and disabled thousands. Jeffrey Smith has worked in the field of
GM foods for nearly a decade—with nonprofit and political groups and at a
GMO detection laboratory. His masterful writing style captivates and
charms, while his meticulously documented facts leave no doubt about a
massive injustice. Eating such experimental food is gambling with your
health. Find out how you can protect yourself and your family.
Personal Review: Seeds of Deception: Exposing Industry and
Government Lies About the Safety of the Genetically Engineered
Foods Youre Eating by Jeffrey M. Smith
Seeds of Deception is foremost a very important book. It is important for
anyone who eats food to read! It is well written and keeps one's interest all
the way thru. How could it not!
Learn about how our dairy farmers are injecting their cows with rBGH, a
genetically engineered bovine growth hormone to increase milk production.
It also gives them boob infections called mastitis. So the farmers give
them shots of anitbiotics, various kinds depending on the farmer, or
availability. rBGH is called "cow crack" because it speeds them up. It
makes them miserable and it is all to increase milk production so that
farmers get more milk subsidies from the government, not because we
need more milk. And does pasteurization get rid of the rBGH? No. Are
we drinking it? Yes. Are we also drinking the antibiotics? Yes. Should
we be drinking organic milk? Yes. Personally I have been buying organic
milk only, for over four years, and it tastes better than 'ordinary' milk.
Every carton is delicious, unlike regular milk which half the time I dump
down the sink because it tastes terrible.
Back to the book: "Contrary to the assurances of the biotech companies
that genetic engineering is precise and simply extends traditional breeding
techniques, it is actually quite different. When genetic crops are
engineered, the gene is inserted randomly, out of a sequence that has
evolved over hundreds of millions of years. Although engineers assumed
that each gene creates a single protein, the very recent discovery that
human beings have only some 30,000 genes...shows that this premise
was wrong. (until a few yrs ago it was believed that humans had approx
100,000 genes).

"Further, genes interact; one gene may trigger other unpredicted and
undesired effects."...."The random position and lack of control of the gene's
functions could change any character of the plant and might not be evident
immediately." "for example , unexpected deformities in GM soy, and cotton
crops." ....the accidental switching on of a host organism's gene at
random...... horizontal gene transfer, where genes can jump between
organisms with unpredictable consequences.
G.M. DNA does in fact transfer to bacteria in the human gut - previously
thought impossible."... genetically modified organisms are not rigorously
tested. They are not as nutritious as our old fashioned food. (In my
opinion they don't taste very good either). Baby food, allergies, ...might
affect sexual development in children and bowell obstruction...... food
derived illnesses are doubled (cdc) in the past 7 yrs..... rise in allergies -
50% increase in soy allergies.
Researchers doctor their studies to avoid finding problems with GM foods.
(they could lose their research grants and/or their jobs). example: re rBGH
study, cows that got sick were dropped from rBGH studies while cows that
were pregnant before treatment were counted as support that the drug
didn't interfere with fertility.....
Conflicts of interest gallore. Suppression and vilification of scientists who
try to convey research info to the public that is deemed to harm the
industry. FDA corruption. "Former FDA Commissioner ' The thing that
bugs me is that people think the FDA is protecting them. It isn't. What the
FDA is doing and what the public thinks it's doing are as different as night
and day."
Biotech industry folks working in high positions in the U.S. government.
"Muscling the Media; threats to sue keep absolutely everyone quiet except
for a brave few (like this author). Do we ever hear discussions about gm
foods on television? NO. ...do animals enjoy eating gm food? No. Is the
government relying on the biotech companies to test their own products?
Yes. Are they actually testing their products? No.
The White House, no matter the President , has always supported the
biotech industry "at the expense of human health". Campaign
contributions, bribery, billions of lobby dollars, threats, corruption, beyond
belief. And not only in the U.S.. In Canada, Dr. Margaret Haydon tried to
refuse to approve rBGH "due to her concerns for human health. She was
taken off the case."
"Genetic engineering presents probably the largest ethical problem that
science has ever had to face." "Going ahead in this direction may be not
only unwise, but dangerous. Potentially, it could breed new animal and
plant diseases, new sources of cancer, novel epidemics."

And of course the growers of gm crops must use specific insecticides
(Roundup) manufactured by the same biotech companies that made the
seeds. The list goes on and on.
An important book. Read it. You'll change your eating/buying habits
immediately.
