A new report from the National Academy of Sciences claims that genetically modified foods (GMOs) are generally safe for humans and the environment. However, the report also admits that GMOs have not significantly increased crop yields as originally promised. Concerns remain regarding the environmental impact of "Frankenfood," such as genetically modified salmon escaping into the wild and outcompeting natural populations.

The proliferation of soy oil, high fructose corn syrup, and chemical preservatives is blamed for declining global health and rising obesity. The hosts argue that "Frankenfood" is designed for long shelf life and high profit rather than nutritional value. They claim that corporate shills in government customize rules to benefit large food and pharmaceutical conglomerates.

### Genetically Modified Food, Lisbon Treaty, Frankenfood

The European Union has approved the cultivation of genetically modified (GM) potatoes and other crops, marking a shift in their previous stance against "Frankenfood." The hosts attribute this change to the Lisbon Treaty, which allows Brussels to override national objections. They advise listeners to read labels carefully, noting that even "Whole Foods" products often contain GM ingredients.

### EU Approval of Genetically Modified Corn

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/144-hemorrhagic-flu-outbreak/chapter/eu-approval-of-genetically-modified-corn.md

The European Union has approved three types of genetically modified corn for the food supply, a move linked to the ratification of the Lisbon Treaty. Despite historical resistance to "Frankenfood," the hosts suggest that crop failures caused by wet weather will be used to force the adoption of Monsanto's herbicide-resistant seeds across Europe.

The discussion explains the process of creating "Frankenfood" and the legal issues surrounding seed patenting. Concerns are raised about the health effects of GMO corn and Monsanto's aggressive litigation against independent farmers.
