TIPS TO AVOID GMOS

Tip #1: Buy Organic

Certified organic products cannot intentionally include any GMO ingredients. Buy products labeled “100% organic”, “organic” or “made with organic ingredients”. You can be doubly sure if the product also has a “Non-GMO Project Verified” Seal.

Tip #2: Look for Non-GMO Project Seals

This guide features brands with products verified by the Non-GMO Project, a non-profit organization committed to providing consumers with clearly labeled and independently verified non-GMO choices, including testing of at-risk ingredients. The Non-GMO Project verifies per individual product, not for an entire brand. Some of the brands listed in this guide offer both GMO and non-GMO items. Visit NonGMOProject.org for more information on the third-party product verification program.

Tip #3: Avoid At-Risk Ingredients

If it’s not labeled organic or verified non-GMO, avoid products made with ingredients that might be derived from GMOs. The eight GM food crops are corn, soybeans, canola, cottonseed, sugar beets, papaya from China or Hawaii (most), and a small amount of zucchini and yellow squash. GM alfalfa is also fed to livestock.

Sugar: If a non-organic product made in North America lists “sugar” as an ingredient (and NOT pure cane sugar), then it is almost certainly a combina- tion of sugar from both sugar cane and GM sugar beets.

Dairy products may be from cows injected with GM bovine growth hormone. If it’s not labeled Organic, or Non-GMO Project Verified, look for labels stat- ing No rbGH, rbST, or artificial hormones.

Roundup Food

Glyphosate is the active ingredient in Monsantos's toxic herbicidal concoction Roundup.  Soy and corn crops are roundup ready.  Eat only non GMO, organic selections of them and their byproducts.  

Glyphosate is thought to have a role in diabetes, autism, Alzheimer's, digestive system disorders, infertility and birth defects.  

STOP MONSANTO. BOYCOTT ROUNDUP. BOYCOTT GMOs.
