Just Label It

We believe in the right to know what we are eating - and what we are feeding our children. Which is why we have joined forces with the Just Label It campaign to require the labeling of food containing Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO’s).

It seems simple enough. But manufacturers, and our government, have apparently decided we may not want to buy what they’re selling - if we know more about it.

• Between 70 and 80% of food on supermarket shelves in America is genetically engineered.

• Countries like Italy, England, France, Japan and Brazil have passed legislation requiring labels on products containing genetically engineered ingredients.The United States meanwhile, is deregulating (allowing) GMOS in our food supply on a regular basis.

Mothers in particular may want to take heed. A pathogen found in Genetically Modified Roundup Ready crops, impacted the fertility of livestock, caused miscarriages, and created a fatal AIDS like syndrome in plants. The Obama Administration released these crops into the American food chain in early 2011.

WHAT CAN YOU DO? Choose Organic whenever possible, and tell the FDA you want to know.
