GMO Foods, Gut Health, and the Hidden Pathway to Chronic Illness Since the publication of his best-selling book Seeds of Deception: Exposing Industry and Government Lies about the Safety of the Genetically Engineered Foods You’re Eating, Jeffrey M. Smith has emerged as one of the most prominent voices calling for a global reassessment—and potential halt—of genetically engineered (GE) food technology.

Some people reported improvements within days; for others, benefits unfolded gradually over four to six weeks. Reported Health Improvements After Removing GM Foods To date, more than 3,000 individuals have reported improvement in 28 different conditions, including: Digestive disorde…

They increase production of and activate macrophages (the first responder immune cells that literally have pathogens for breakfast—they engulf and devour them) natural killer cells, messenger cells (cytokines), B-cells and T-cells; and they strengthen the gut lining; modify the immune system so it doesn’t overreact and cause too much inflammation; improve absorption of many nutrients; and produce their own natural antimicrobial substances. One of these, acidophilin, is more powerful than pharmaceutica…
