Genetic modified organisms or GMOs have transformed the entire food industry and global health on a massive scale. And with the recent advent of CRISPR technologies and more complex genetic engineering methods, the new landscape of GMO 2.0 has arrived. Although they are a testament to our scientific progress, they could be doing more harm than good to our bodies. Corinna Bellizzi sits down with global thought leader and author Jeffrey Smith, who presents the dangers of GMOs and genetic engineering. He explains how agrochemical/agricultural biotechnology corporation Monsanto continues to find legal loopholes to integrate toxic chemicals into their food products. Jeffrey also talks about the difference between hybridized and GMOs, why microbes are the hardest species to genetically engineer, and how eating organic food delivers way more benefits than you could imagine. About Jeffrey Smith:As a global thought leader on the health dangers of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) for over 27 years, Jeffrey Smith has authored 2 bestsellers, directed 5 documentaries, delivered 2,000 lectures and interviews in 45 countries, trained 1,500 speakers, and organized more than 10,000 grassroots advocates. Jeffrey has counseled world leaders on six continents, and his meticulous research presented at medical conferences inspired thousands to prescribe non-GMO and organic diets. The success of the GMO education movement he pioneered is measured in part by the 48% of world consumers who acknowledge GMOs are unhealthy. Taking on GMO 2.0 Jeffrey and IRT are now sounding the alarm about new genetic engineering techniques, such as gene editing. Unregulated, GMO 2.0 can cause health and environmental disasters. The most urgent danger comes from genetically engineered microbes. Jeffrey is stewarding a global effort to prevent their release. Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffrey-smith-81441312/ Guest Website: https://responsibletechnology.org/ Guest Social:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEpUgQ6muzZ9YPy53O7w2HA  https://www.instagram.com/irtnogmos  https://www.facebook.com/IRTnogmos  Show Notes:00:00 - Introduction03:25 - Concerning things about GMOs 08:11 - GMO 2.0 and Monsanto18:50 - Dangers of gene editing25:12 - Frankenfish, rabbits, and human disruption31:45 - Hybridized vs GMO35:39 - Microbes45:01 - A high need for a wake-up50:57 - Eating organic 54:00 - Getting to “of course”01:01:06 - Closing WordsJoin the Care More.
