New Scientific Analyses Underpin Mexico’s Restrictions on GM Corn and Glyphosate Due to Health Risks

Whatever the ruling, Mexico’s new President Claudia Sheinbaum has said her government will not allow the cultivation of GM corn. Sheinbaum also recently announced plans to try to place GM corn restrictions in Mexico’s constitution; “this is the best defense we have for biodiversity as well as for our health,” she said.

Mexico’s stand for food sovereignty and the scientific evidence they gathered to support their case have worldwide relevance, as nations across the Global South grapple with seed laws that would open the doors to GM foods. It also comes at a time when U.S. consumers are losing faith in the safety of our food supply, according to a recent Gallup poll.

The Age of Aspartame May Be Coming To An End As More Health Risks Are Confirmed

Just because something is touted as “sugar-free”, does it mean it’s healthy? Recent studies have shown that not only does artificial sweetener intake have an association with diabetes, [1] it also increases the risk for heart, kidney, and brain damage. [2]

Aspartame was an accidental discovery by the G.D. Searle Company (a pharmaceutical company) back in 1969, reporting that aspartame was an “organic compound with a profound sucrose-like taste”. In the 1970s, several studies were done on aspartame revealing truly terrifying results. G.D. Searle submitted false results to the FDA because the studies showed that aspartame intake caused death and grand mal seizures in their test subjects (infant monkeys). Other studies revealed that aspartame caused neurotoxicity and brain damage. [3][4] Despite being banned twice by the FDA, aspartame is once again legal and being consumed by potentially millions of people all over the world.
