âIt will make agriculture more efficient,â they claim. âIt wonât hurt anyone but the bugs,âtheysay. But despite all of their promises, Big Agriculture has a vested interest in âsellingâ us the benefits of their frankenfoods. After all, this is how they make their millions and billions. Regardless of what they tell us, however, the vast majority of people are waking up to the game and recognizing the current big agricultural system for what it is: a capitalistic machine devoid of moral concerns.
Just one example of their disregard for human health is in the use of Bacillus thuringiensis, also known as the Bt-toxin. This bacterial toxin has been used for decades as an insecticide, sprayed directly on crops to kill off problem bugs. The toxin works by literally exploding the stomachs of the bugs who ingest it. Nice, huh?
Well, Big Ag had the evil-genius idea of actually splicing the Bt gene with that of crops, creating corn, soybeans and cotton that already had the Bt built in. They said it would increase crop yields. They said it would decrease pesticide use. But, on both accounts, they were wrong. In addition to failing on both of these fronts, Bt crops have been found to cause both known and unknown damage to human health.
In example, some research has shown that Monsantoâs âbiopesticideâ known as Bt is killing human kidney cells. Scientists found that the Bt pesticide, in addition to Monsantoâs best-selling herbicide Roundup, exhibit direct toxicity to human cells even in low doses.
While research is ongoing, there is growing evidence that Bt triggers an immune response in humans and animals. It elevates antibodies associated with allergies, infections, arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and cancer, just to name a few. Even more frightening, it can now be found in the majority of people on traditional Western dietsâboth in them and their unborn fetuses.
Straight to the Point â Avoiding and Detoxing
While it would be great if the industry would recognize these problems and stop using the Bt-crops, we know that wonât happen. Nor will our government step in and regulate it (they side with Big Ag on this one too). So, as with most things, itâs our responsibility to reduce our exposure and decrease the potential damage on our own bodies.
How can we detox the toxin? Simple â here are 7 steps to help you begin:
- Buy organic, GMO-free foods. Simple.
- Consume probiotics and fermented foods - By ensuring your gut bacteria is in good health, your body is better able to combat invaders like the toxic pesticide chemicals.
- Consume fiber-rich foods - The more fiber you eat, the faster things move through your body. And good sources of natural fiber (i.e. organic fruits and vegetables) donât only take the food waste with them. Fiber helps clean the toxins from your body as well. This is lesser known among the health benefits of fiber.
- Sweat - Through sweating, waste is removed through pores on the skin. Aim to sweat at least fifteen minutes every day. You may even consider brushing your skin from head to toe with a boar bristle brush to remove dead skin cells that clog the pores.
- Filter your water â By using s high quality water filtration system, such as a reverse osmosis unit, pesticides and other contaminates can be removed from your everyday drinking supply.

Thanks for this article. The guvmint is trying to kill us every which way and we need to know how to defend ourselves.
Bacillus Thuringiensis or bt in it’s natural form is currently approved for certified organic farming as a pest control. Products labled as OMRI listed (organic materials review institute) used in organic farming passes USDA regulations. But to splice the bacterial DNA into plants is ridiculous, GMOs are a pseudo science and are a disgrace to the scientific community as a whole. Selective breeding is the only true way and SAFE way to establish disease and pest resistance
