One thing's for sure: when Dr. Oz speaks, people listen. Many a
healthfood store and tea shop owner have saluted him when he mentions
their goods on air - and their stores fill up. In the past he has drawn
cheers and jeers for his fluctuating stances on organic food and
genetically modified organisms in the food supply.
Today, he makes a very clear stance, as a concerned doctor, against the
EPA's pending approval of a new, toxic pesticide intended for use on
genetically engineered crops like corn and soy - this country's biggest
crops and food ingredients. He warns about floundering brain health,
thyroid problems, chronic disease and more as a result of this stronger
pesticide's use.
Today's episode of The Dr. Oz Show examines a new GMO pesticide that the EPA is on the very brink of approving because GMO crops now contain superweeds that have become
resistant to glyphosate (Roundup). This new concoction called Enlist
Duo, by Dow AgroSciences, contains both glyphosate and the choline salt
of 2,4-D (2,4-D was one of the ingredients in Agent Orange).
His stark warning, that I include in the title of this article, is actually found in the longer version of the video, HERE. In that clip he says, "GMOs can be ushering in a pesticide arms race, and the health of your brain could be the casualty."
