Confirmed: DNA From Genetically Modified Crops Are Transferred Into Humans Who Eat Them

Fernando Kaskais

By Steven Peters In a new study published in the peer reviewed Public Library of Science (PLOS), researchers emphasize that there is sufficient evidence that meal-derived DNA fragments carry complete genes that can enter into the human circulation system through an unknown mechanism. It’s interesting to ponder if the scientists at these biotech corporations have already identified this method? In one of the blood samples the relative concentration of plant DNA is higher than the human DNA. The study was based on the analysis of over 1000 human samples from four independent studies. PLOS is an open access, well respected … Continue reading Confirmed: DNA From Genetically Modified Crops Are Transferred Into Humans Who Eat Them

Fernando Kaskais

It seems that each generation of medical authorities are so engrossed in their sense of superiority, they fail to learn from history and recognize their repetitive assaults on the human body through their misguided intentions to treat symptoms with poison. The reason mainstream medicine has lost its footing in the hearts and minds of the people is not due to the lack of scientific progress, but sheer … Continue reading Ignorance and Insanity Is The Hallmark of Medical Practice Throughout History – Here’s The Proof

How Obama Officials Cried ‘Terrorism’ to Cover Up a Paperwork Error

Fernando Kaskais

By David Kravets After seven years of litigation, two trips to a federal appeals court and $3.8 million worth of lawyer time, the public has finally learned why a wheelchair-bound Stanford University scholar was cuffed, detained and denied a flight from San Francisco to Hawaii: FBI human error. FBI agent Kevin Kelley was investigating Muslims in the San Francisco Bay Area in 2004 when he checked the wrong box on a terrorism form, erroneously placing Rahinah Ibrahim on the no-fly list. What happened next was the real shame. Instead of admitting to the error, high-ranking President Barack Obama administration officials … Continue reading How Obama Officials Cried ‘Terrorism’ to Cover Up a Paperwork Error
