Dr. Deb Muth 0:05What if your immune system isn’t broken, it’s just confused? What if chronic Lyme, the autoimmune condition, the food sensitivities, the exhaustion that never lifts what if those aren’t separate problems but one problem? A misfiring immune system that nobody taught how to stand down. Today’s guest has spent over 15 years doing exactly that, retraining the immune system from the inside out with a therapy so precise, so safe, and so effective that it has changed the lives of thousands of people who’d been written off by conventional medicine. Stay with me. This one changes everything.Welcome back to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, the show where we pull back the curtain on chronic illness, challenge outdated medical thinking, and hand you the real tools to heal from the inside out. I’m Dr. Deb, integrative and functional medicine practitioner, medical detective, and your straight-talking guide through the world of root cause medicine. Today, we’re going to dive deep into the immune system, specifically something called low-dose immunotherapy or LDI, and also into some hormones, chronic fatigue, and what it actually looks like to treat the cause instead of suppressing the symptoms. If you or someone you love has been told there’s nothing more we can do, this episode was made for you. Grab your cup of coffee, Settle in and let’s get to work. Now, before we bring in today’s guest, a quick word from our sponsor, and then we are diving straight in. I promise. Did you know sweating can literally heal your cells? Infrared saunas don’t just relax you, they detox your body, balance hormones, and boost mitochondrial energy. I’m obsessed with my HealthTech Sauna, and right now you can save $500 with my code at healthtechhealth.com/dr-muth-req-25.I want to start you with a story because this is one I’ve heard hundreds of times in my own practice, and I’m guessing you’ve either lived it or know someone who has. She’s 42. She’s been sick for years. Fatigue that doesn’t lift with sleep, joint pain that migrates, brain fog so thick she can’t finish a sentence, and a gut that seems to react to everything she eats. She’s been to her GP, rheumatologist, gastroenterologist, maybe even an immunologist, and every single lab comes back within quote unquote normal limits. She’s handed a prescription for something to manage the symptoms and sent home. Maybe she’s been told it’s anxiety. Maybe she’s been told it’s aging, or maybe and this one always breaks my heart she’s told it’s all in her head. That woman is not imagining it. She is not anxious and she’s not aging poorly. Her immune system has lost its ability to tolerate things it’s supposed to tolerate, and no one has offered her the therapy that could actually fix that. And what we’re talking about today with my guest has been practicing integrative medicine for over 15 years. Ty Vincent holds a medical degree from the University of Washington. He completed his family medicine residency in Anchorage, Alaska, and since has built one of the most impressive clinical repertoires I’ve seen anywhere in this field: acupuncture, Chinese medicine, environmental medicine, bioidentical hormones, hyperbaric medicine, chelation, regenerative peptide therapy, psychedelic-assisted therapy, and nutritional medicine.He lives and practices on the Big Island of Hawaii. He is married has 9 children. Oh my gosh, 9! And he has personally navigated type 1 diabetes, which, as you’ll hear, is not separate from his mission. It actually is his mission. And most importantly, he is a world authority on low-dose immunotherapy, a therapy he pioneered in 2008 and since has trained over 200 providers globally and changed the course of chronic illness care as we know it. I have had the pleasure of learning from Dr. Ty Vincent. I have had pleasure of taking his low-dose immunotherapy course when he first started back in like 2008 or 2009. I remember doing it back then and learning more about it in 2011. And this is going to be a great conversation for us. So one quick ask that I have for you guys, if this sounds like something that you want to learn more about and you’ve listened to some of our shows, please share like, subscribe. It means a lot. It helps us grow our channel. It helps us continue to provide for you different topics, different speakers, and really give you what it is that you’re looking for.So without further ado, I’d like to introduce you to Dr. Ty Vincent. All right, so Dr. Ty Vincent, this is gonna be a great conversation. We were just chatting before we went live of my training with you guys way back in like 2015, and I’m excited to hear all the new things that you’ve got going on. But introduce yourself to the audience. Tell us a little bit about you, how you got involved in this, uh, where you’re at, all that good stuff. Tyvincent 5:29Okay. I, uh, it’s a long story, but some of the highlights, I guess I was born in Alaska in the early ’70s and grew up there kind of wandering around in the woods with my dogs with no one around all day long. It was amazing. You don’t get kids don’t get that experience anymore. So you kind of learn to be an independent thinker, I think, you know, because latchkey kid, parents weren’t home till 6 and you’re on your own from early. Dr. Deb Muth 5:49That was a great time, wasn’t it? Yeah. Tyvincent 5:51I mean, I have, I have 9 children now and none of them grew up like me. And despite my effort, I mean, I’d have to basically like helicopter them out in the woods and drop them off for a few hours for them to understand what independent kids today are so dependent and parents are so helicopter that, uh, it’s changed. Anyway, I, I grew up just really liking science and really loving science, a huge nerd. And, um, and, uh, when I went into college, when I wanted to be a marine biologist and I thought that that was my passion of the ocean wildlife and all that, and then halfway through college, personal Couple things made me change my mind. It was a girl, you know, the usual. And I decided to go to school in Anchorage instead of going I was, I was transferring to Hawaii and I was going to study marine biology. And then, uh, my girlfriend moved back to Alaska where we were from. And I decided to do that instead. And then they didn’t have a marine science program.So I decided I’ll just get a biology degree and go to medical school. I’m a smart guy. I can do that, but I had no awareness of medicine. I really didn’t have any, you know, the passion some people have to be a healer and to go help people wasn’t part of the calculus at all for me. I was kind of an Asperger’s kid, so that really wasn’t the way I thought, honestly. And then I went into medicine and I was really interested in the science, the biology, the biochemistry, all the stuff, the physiology. And before I started medical school, I was reading some Andrew Weil’s books and I was, I decided to get a book on nutritional biochemistry because I naively thought that’s what they were going to teach me, right? This is how you make people healthy. You figure out how it works and you give them the things that make their body work right. Yeah. And we all know that that’s. Not been true for over 100 years now since the Flexner Report. And, you know, the rich people steered the government towards pharmaceuticals. Dr. Deb Muth 7:26Yeah. Tyvincent 7:26But that was my interest. And when I went through the first 2 years of medical school, I just really devoured all of the basic science stuff. And that was what I thought was the most important. And I honestly mastered all that. I scored in the top 1% in the country on all the exams and everything. And it was the top, in the top of my class at the University of Washington. And then you start doing clinical medical training and you discover that they don’t use any of that knowledge anymore, really, unless it pertains directly to pharmaceuticals, and that pharmaceutical research is extremely narrow and reductionist, and they only want to try to prove one little effect, and it doesn’t translate to real health. So as I got into clinical work and started residency, you know, by the third year of residency, I was like, they didn’t really teach me how to help people with chronic illness. You know, I was, I went to family medicine residency, so I was delivering babies.I was assisting with surgeries. I was in the ER. I was doing colonoscopies. I actually did colonoscopies in practice after residency, which family Doctors almost never get to do, but I’m a small town in Alaska. So I managed my own ICU patients and did everything, literally circumcisions in the office. And you’re dealing with like hospice and end of life care, just both ends, right? Pregnancy to death. And so I’d realized that if I really wanted to do the job well, which was my goal, I needed to learn other things. And in my, in my third year of residency, I actually did the extra, like, like additional training in medical acupuncture that was put on by the Helms Medical Institute then with Joseph Helms.And that was great. And I had to learn Chinese medical theory and I learned, I did the extra module on Chinese herbal medicine. And it was wonderful because I had to open my mind to a completely different way to evaluate people and illness. And I thought, okay, well then there’s got to be more. And as I went, I just became this voracious consumer of broad medical knowledge, not conventional medicine. You notice how a lot of the conventional people call it traditional medicine? Dr. Deb Muth 9:07Yes. Tyvincent 9:07Which annoys the crap out of me because there’s nothing traditional about something that’s been around for 100 years. I mean, you need time, you need like an epoch to say something’s traditional. But they’re like, no, I’m like, and then we were considered alternative medicine minded and everything like, oh, well, Well, it’s an alternative to real medicine. The vernacular in our culture really dictates thinking, unfortunately. I went on to learn functional medicine. So like 2005, I did the acupuncture training. 2006, I found the IFM and I read their entire textbook in a few months. And I went to the trainings. I was like, okay, now I know what you guys have to teach me. And then I found a bioidentical hormone therapy training course that was like Jonathan Wright and Terry Hertog. Dr. Deb Muth 9:46Terry Hertog, yes. My favorite guys. Tyvincent 9:49They were great. Dr. Deb Muth 9:50Pioneers, right? Tyvincent 9:51Yeah, exactly. And, you know, I learned what their opinions were and all that. And then you don’t really learn how to use a tool or you don’t get really get facile with something until you are using it and you’re applying it to your patients. And I went beyond that. I learned all kinds of IV nutrition. I learned chelation therapy. I joined the Environmental Medicine Academy and I learned how to do various forms of immunotherapy, eventually leading to learning LDA, low dose allergy therapy, through them in 2008. And for those of you listeners who don’t know about low-dose allergy therapy, when you learn about it, basically it’s like homeopathic dilutions of antigens.But instead of single antigens, like if you go to that regular allergist, they’ll just prick test you, blood test you, whatever, and say, oh, you react to mold, you react to chicken, you react to your husband’s whatever. They don’t test for that. I sometimes do. And they’re very narrow-minded about it. And it’s like you just give the antigens that the person tested for and you’re always missing something. With LDA, you get these huge broad mixtures of antigens, like for foods, it’s just hundreds of foods compiled into one for environmental allergens. And the reason you can get away with it is that the dilution factor is so far out. There’s no physical interaction with the body and you can’t, there’s no risk of inducing allergy, right? Whereas conventional shots might be 1,000 to 1, 100 to 1 dilution. We’re out at like a billion to 1 or further in most of these. And it sounded like nonsense to me, right? Despite all of my training I’d already had and all these things and being open-minded, it still sounded ridiculous. Pointless, right?But at least I was willing to give it a try because I had patients in my clinic, my family medicine clinic in Alaska, that had horrific allergies. Just like kids with eczema from head to toe. They look like they’ve been set on fire. Half their hair wouldn’t grow out of their head. They’re just miserable. They won’t grow. They’re on steroids. And I just thought, if there’s if this has any chance of working for these kids, I’m going to give it a try. Plus, two of my kids at the time had eczema, like persistent eczema that was really annoying. And I kids with eczema is a near and dear thing to me now. I like, I get emotional treating these kids, but, but that’s because it’s miserable for the families. Right. So I took it hard and I started treating my kids and, and, uh, kids in my clinic with LDA and it worked like magic because magic is just science we haven’t figured out yet. Right. We just, you know, some, but it was undeniable that it was working incredibly well. And then I was like, well, what is going on here? How does this work? And you learn the whole history of it. It goes back to the 1950s. I’m like, but, but it’s still so limited. There’s so much more as you start to treat patients with every tool in your toolbox, you run into these walls occasionally where you’re like, okay, everything I’m doing now isn’t working. And this patient has some kind of chronic inflammation, which is a very general term.People go, I have inflammation. Yeah, yeah. What we all do every day, all the time. But they would have these chronic inflammatory disorders that really seem to be immune driven. And then I thought, well, in terms of understanding low-dose allergy therapy, if I can identify what the target antigen really is that’s underlying this patient’s condition, and I can restore tolerance to that, which is basically how LDA works, then you could resolve it. And so I set about experimenting with all kinds of autoimmune disorders. I mean, at the time, LDA and the predecessor therapy called EPD, they had a few bacterial antigens, and we knew that there were connections between like rheumatoid arthritis and the bacterium Proteus. So that was in one. Klebsiella was the target antigen for ankylosing spondylitis. I’m thinking, well then, what about all these other autoimmune disorders? So I started just treating people creatively and trying all kinds of different things. Luckily, I had a contact in Orange County who had a warehouse, like a biomedical sample warehouse, and he was willing to give me antigen mixtures almost anything you could imagine in the biomedical world.The first thing I had him put together was Candida. I found those of us in the medicine space realize that some people have this huge problem with Candida. The conventional medical world thinks, well, yeah, everybody’s got Candida. That’s not a thing unless it’s an infection, blah, blah, blah. But you see these patients that are super ill, persistently ill, and you give them antifungals because you think, okay, well, you have these red rashes and itching and constipation and fatigue and muscle pain, blah, blah, whatever. It sounds like a yeast problem. Some of them, interestingly, if you do stool analysis, they show no yeast on their stool, which is a clue to me with a different thinking process that the reason the yeast isn’t growing in their stool is their immune system must be attacking it and killing it off in the gut, right? Because who doesn’t carry Candida? So the, the tests that run those are the stool company the test the companies that run the stool test, they don’t flag that result as abnormal because, yay, good, you have no yeast. But it’s horribly abnormal, right? Like if you saw somebody with no, no ears, you’re like, that’s not right. And so I thought, well, maybe they’re immunologically hypersensitive Candida. And so I, I was able to purchase a mixture of Candida species. And it occurred to me that I should include Saccharomyces cerevisiae in there because baker’s yeast and brewer’s yeast, people become sensitive to that too.So I made this and some of the patients that I was seeing where I would put them on Diflucan and Nystatin and all their symptoms would just evaporate, right? But you try to stop the medications after a month or whatever, and within 48 to 72 hours, their symptoms are right back. And that was one of the things, another clue to me, like, well, then that’s not an infection. I mean, they’re not taking antibiotics. They’re not eating a ton of sugar. Why would this regrow? And one of my criticisms of our integrative medicine world is we have just as many fairy tales and dogmatic beliefs as the conventional medical world. They’re just more colorful. Dr. Deb Muth 14:59That is true. That is very true. Yeah. Tyvincent 15:01And people were saying, oh, well, it’s because Candida lurks and hides in these nooks and crannies and corners in your body. And I’m like, I’ve done colonoscopies for years. I don’t know what you’re talking about. Like, it’s sparkling clean in there after some Go Lightly or whatever you torture your patient with the day before a colonoscopy. I was like, well, that doesn’t make sense. And they’re like, well, it’s because Candida uses mercury as a weapon to fight off your immune system. I’m like, you’re anthropomorphizing this organism as if it had agency to make tools, right? It doesn’t make sense. So then I came up with this idea to desensitize people to Candida. And it was incredibly effective.These patients, when you find the right dilution, you know, and for those who don’t know, it’s just a couple of drops of water put under your tongue, taken out of a syringe from multiple different dilution steps of the mixture, whether they’re using, right? So these people would respond. Most things I’ve developed, people respond. Somewhere near a trillion to one mathematically. And it was incredible. And I was like, okay, this is something that I’m sure relates to other chronic illness problems. And I started experimenting with I had a couple of patients with inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis, both of them early on. That was 2009. And I was like, well, they didn’t respond to the yeast mixture. They didn’t respond to the food mixture. And I was like, well, they’re reacting to something.And presumably that something is living in their gut. Right? I now know people react to different bacteria. There’s a ton of different bacteria and other organisms in your stool. So I came up with the crazy idea after seeing Dr. Bill Ray at an environmental medicine meeting talk about what he called autologous vaccines. Dr. Deb Muth 16:29Right? Tyvincent 16:30And I want to be clear, the way a vaccine works is probably the total opposite of how LDA works. It’s not the same thing. You’re restoring tolerance with LDA, LDI, and you’re promoting a robust immune reaction to a target antigen with a vaccine. At least that’s the theory. And now I’m not. It’s true. But Dr. Ray was talking about that and I thought, well, that’s a cool idea. And I went up and I asked him like, how do you do this?How do you make these things? And he kind of gave me like a very brief, you know, brush off. He didn’t know me very well. He’s like, oh, you get these Millipore filters, these little things you put on a syringe and you can dilute something and pass it through into a vial and it’ll be a sterile solution and you can dilute it. I was like, oh, great. So I collected one of my ulcerative colitis patients’ stool who was having at the time like 12 bloody bowel movements per day, every day. He’d seen all the conventional gastroenterologists. He tried the different drugs. They weren’t working. He went to some really special integrative greater clinic in California that primarily dealt with gastrointestinal disorders, and he did everything they wanted him to do, and it also didn’t help.I did discover that he was sensitive to gluten, and when he went off gluten, his, his gut still didn’t improve. So I made this autologous stool, um, LDA I called it then, which now I change it to LDI because LDA is a proprietary term and it’s also very narrow in scope. And I gave him doses and looked like the second dilution maybe that I went through hit. Literally his, his diarrhea and bleeding stopped overnight. And by 3 days he was having completely normal stools and no pain, nothing. And that taught me a couple of things. One, this theory works, right? And two, you know, we talk about the concept of leaky gut in the alternative medicine world, like integrative medicine world, sorry, a lot.And I’m like, yeah, but that’s not a diagnosis. That’s a symptom. You know, you still figure out what’s causing inflammation. And people are like, I just have leaky gut. It’s chronic. And you know, what do you do? And what I found was if you just put the fire out, the house rebuilds itself. Health very quickly. You know, we know that the lining of the gut turns over extremely fast. That’s why it is one of the first things to go when you do chemotherapy. And these people were basically healed to normal within less than a week. Same thing with kids with eczema that had these horrible oozing, weeping skin patches. Dr. Deb Muth 18:25I would. Tyvincent 18:25Or psoriasis even. When I developed some things that would treat psoriasis later on, you, you give this person with just, you know, deforming sort of rashes the right antigen, within 3 to 5 days they have normal looking skin except for maybe residual depigmentation or scarring if but it just blew me away. Dr. Deb Muth 18:42That’s crazy. 3 Days. Tyvincent 18:44The key to solving these problems was to restore immunological tolerance for the thing that it had lost tolerance for. Dr. Deb Muth 18:50Right. Tyvincent 18:50And it just really made me think about everything we were taught about chronic illness and everything we’re taught about the immune system in a very different way. And so since 2009, I’ve developed I’ve continued to develop new mixtures for new things because I run into patients. I can treat so many more things now highly successfully than I could before, but there’s still always the failures. People would ask me over the years, you know, why did you pick up all these skill sets?Like I learned acupuncture and Chinese medicine. I learned bio I became a Reiki master even, because I’m like, well, energy is a thing too. And so I get into the energy medicine world and that also works. And especially if you add it to acupuncture, it’s a great combination. All this stuff. And I would still fail. And I, it occurred to me when people ask me the question, like, I’m driven by failure. I really don’t like it. And I said, uh, and I thought that was how everybody believed, you know what everybody thought, right? But then you when you study our conventional medical colleagues and a lot of our people in the integrative medicine world too, that are doing the same things, the same protocols.And I hate the word protocol because it’s a poor substitute for thinking, right? It’s so that you don’t have to think here, follow this list, but everybody’s so different. So I never developed a protocol for anything to this day. I don’t, that’s not what I do. I was like, despite all of this, their patients aren’t getting better either. And it’s like, well then, you know, just philosophically, which I was a big philosophy student in college too. I thought if, if what you’re doing doesn’t work, do something different, you know, make new mistakes, figure things out. And I just got really creative. And by now I have, my gosh, I have 100 different kinds of antigen mixtures. And to be very honest, half of them have never worked for anything because that’s how it works, right? You got to. Dr. Deb Muth 20:17You’re trying it. Geez. Yeah. Tyvincent 20:19You’ve got to be willing to be wrong if you ever want to be right. One of the things I’ve noticed about humans in general is they’re very unwilling to see when they’re wrong because it’s emotionally painful to let go of something that has maybe been a part of your self-identity or especially like when you get experts in a field and they’re famous for some theory or treatment or whatever they developed, even if evidence shows up later, which it inevitably does, to show that what they’re doing isn’t complete, maybe not wrong, but not complete, there’s huge resistance, right, to the change. Dr. Deb Muth 20:49No one will admit that there’s something that didn’t work initially when they thought it did. Tyvincent 20:54Right. And nobody wants to admit I’ve been doing something wrong or ineffective or less than it could be for 20 years. You know, that’s unsettling. But to me, I’m like, well, isn’t it worse to keep doing it wrong? Right? Dr. Deb Muth 21:06That’s the whole idea. Like, right? We’re supposed to be bettering ourselves. Medicine’s supposed to be adapting and changing, and we don’t. Like, there’s a lot of things that we still do the same way we did in the 1950s and ’60s. Cancer treatment is one of them, right? We don’t really do anything different than we did back then. And when you look at precision medicine, we have all these new tools, but people stay stuck in their way of doing things just because maybe it’s easier, they’re comfortable or whatever. It doesn’t always make it the best interest for the client. Tyvincent 21:36No. And that is the goal we all need to keep in mind. Dr. Deb Muth 21:38Yeah. Tyvincent 21:39What I thought was like the job is to fix the problem the person has. And if the tools you currently have don’t do that, you need to learn something else. Dr. Deb Muth 21:48Yeah. Tyvincent 21:48And eventually I got a little saturated with learning new things. Dr. Deb Muth 21:51I’ve been there. Tyvincent 21:54Turns out there’s a limit. You know, we use the term drinking from the fire hose for everybody who like comes, like conventionally trained doctors who first get into the integrative medicine world. You’re just like, what are you talking about? It’s all so foreign and new. And then you have to use it and realize, okay, there’s, there’s a lot of truth here. But I got to a point where it’s like, I just don’t have the time in my day to use every tool. Like I bought an Indigo machine. I don’t know if you’ve heard of it. So the old EAV technology from Germany long ago, electrodiagnostic things and Then they developed computer programs and software that could analyze 11,000 different frequencies. It’s all energy frequency based. And I bought one of these for like $25,000. I still have it in the case collecting dust because I just didn’t have time to learn how to use the tool. And I was like, all right, I got to just get really, really good at some things and then let my colleagues who are good at other things help people with the things I can’t treat and I’ll tell them where to go. You know, it’s a collective, it’s a team effort. Dr. Deb Muth 22:47Right. It’s got to be a team effort. I’m curious what you’re finding these days with the newfound for mass cell, right? MCAS, everybody’s problem child, and nobody has a good answer. And it’s, it’s an immune reaction, right? It’s not just that I’m allergic to everything situation. Back in the day, 20 years ago, you and I would have called these the chemically sensitive people, and now we at least understand what’s going on. It’s an immune reaction. But I’m curious what you’re finding with LDI and that population of people. Tyvincent 23:19It’s a really good question. I know, I know you’ve had other interviews where people have discussed it philosophically to start the conversation. I really have found over the years that a diagnosis is the least helpful thing you can give your patient. Dr. Deb Muth 23:31Agreed. Tyvincent 23:31But we love labels. We love names. And we, and the problem is when you give something a name that does not reflect what’s actually going on, it just leads everybody’s brain in the wrong direction. And so there’s nothing wrong with these people’s mast cells. And that’s why I’m like, I despise the term mast cell activation disorder, but It is okay that they may be the end of the line releasing histamine and whatever, but a lot of these people have tons of inflammatory symptoms that have nothing to do with histamine, right? There are lots of mechanisms in the immune system that can give you cell-mediated inflammation or humoral, like antibody-mediated inflammation, different things. And mast cells are kind of an IgE thing, but it’s way more complicated than that.And when you work with these people, because a lot of them have found me because they have a very difficult time finding answers and solutions. I’ve been at most of us in this field have been at the bottom of a funnel where the options decrease because you try more and more therapies and they don’t work and the desperation increases kind of inversely proportionally. And then they’re trying weirder and weirder things that like people think are bizarre, you know, like you can eventually sting yourself with 20 bees a day, do apitherapy or something. Dr. Deb Muth 24:36I remember that therapy. And you know, as a practitioner too, it becomes more and more frustrating because it’s like, I’m trying all these things and nothing is working. What am I missing? And you keep trying different things until they just give up on you or you give up on them or whatever ends up happening, you know. Tyvincent 24:52Right. But again, like philosophically, every failure should lead you a step closer to success. Dr. Deb Muth 24:58Yeah. Tyvincent 24:58If you can look at it and you can learn from it what is possible from it and go, okay, I got to do this different or change this, or perhaps my entire theory about this problem is just dead wrong. Yeah. So if what I think is happening isn’t what’s happening, what else could be happening? And then you, you know, you come up with a theory and then you have to devise a way to test test it. And so like a lot of people probably tossed around theories about things being immune related or whatever over the years because it becomes a little obvious at a certain point, but they didn’t have a tool to test the theory.So that was the, the unique position I found myself in from 2009 onward was I’ve got a way to test this if I can figure out what antigen to try. And so I got a lot of mast cell people with that diagnosis. And, you know, my assessment of the problem is that when they come into my office, because like you and like most of people that are kind made it a little further in the integrative medicine world. The patients that find you have already seen 20 of your colleagues at the Mayo Clinic and the Cleveland Clinic and Germany, like Mexico, whatever. They’ve had exosomes infused up their nose or whatever. Like, all right, so what has not been explored yet? And you got to realize, okay, these, these people are there’s something going on. It’s very inflammatory. It’s probably immune related, but where is it coming from? Again, you mentioned root cause. You’ve got to trace the steps backward and try to figure out where is the point of intervention that will actually work and that’s feasible. And so what I found in these people, most of them have a pretty common early story of having had one or a few immune reactions that first began the process. And they might’ve been fairly benign and not that big of a deal.And then they go through some kind of immunological stress, whether it’s, well, some kind of stress, whether it’s a direct immune stress, like a vaccination or an infection or something like that. Like with COVID I’ve had an equal number of people who developed chronic immunological disorders after having the virus infection or having the vaccine. And the things that develop are virtually identical. So people are like, I should be gotten the vaccine. I’m like, it really doesn’t make any difference. Dr. Deb Muth 26:53Right. And I’ve seen the same thing with the HPV vaccine too. Like a lot of young people, they get that and all of a sudden their whole system is torn off after that. It’s very common. Tyvincent 27:03Except in that example, just getting HPV doesn’t do it. It’s the vaccine that does it. Dr. Deb Muth 27:07Vaccine that does it. Yes, exactly. Tyvincent 27:10Because everybody’s got HPV, you know, some other, and that is not in and of itself enough of an inflammatory trigger to lead to these chronic illness, right? You can lead to cancer, sure. Which is focal and it’s not a hypersensitivity problem. It’s a failure of immune defense problem. It’s a little different. So I would get these people and I’m like, okay, what happened first? What’s the beginning of the story? Because if you talk to them about how they’re feeling today, and a lot of your listeners, this will resonate with them. If I ask you how you’re doing today, the real cause of your problem is buried under a snowstorm of constant inflammation and your life experience is utter hell. And you have no clue what’s really triggering anything anymore. It’s like at a certain point, the immune system has developed PTSD, right? It’s just, it’s hypervigilant. Anything you give these people to take, even like vitamin C or whatever, then they go, ah, it made me worse.Ah, it made me worse. Because their immune system is now seeing anything foreign as an invader, as an enemy. So if you ask people just about how they’re doing today, you get absolutely nowhere. With these people. The one theory I had though was, well, maybe they’re reacting to histamine itself. Okay. I think is a beautiful theory. Makes total sense. Didn’t work at all. Spoiler alert. It’s not that it doesn’t work. It’s easy to get a sample of histamine, you know, and I also, I also got histidine, the amino acid from which it’s derived. I’ll say I’ll just put them together. So at least I want to say 12 years ago, I made like a histamine histidine LDI and everyone who had kind of the mast cell picture portfolio of illnesses, I would try it on. It has to this day, it’s never worked for anybody that I’ve tried it on. And I haven’t had another LDI practitioner tell me that it did. But again, that failure made me think about it in a different way. And so the success I’ve had with that population is not monolithic. It’s not one part. From an LDI perspective, figuring out what it is that they began to react to first, like, did you still have, do you have food problems originally?Oh yeah, I was kind of sensitive to gluten, but I just ate it anyway because I would just get some diarrhea and some, okay, it it was, it was livable, right? But they just keep exposing themselves to this trigger. And eventually something snaps in their immune system. Like they live in a moldy dorm room for 6 months and that all of that immune activation will kick off whole new immune response problems. And the world of mold is another area where I think people don’t, do not really understand what’s going on. And a lot of our treatment approaches don’t work for a large portion of these people. And it has to be kind of thought of in a broader sense. They could go through a divorce. They could have a car accident. They could have a surgery. A woman could have a baby, which is one of the biggest immunological triggers, unfortunately, is having a baby or early pregnancy miscarriage even is enough to do. Emotionally stressful. It’s physically stressful. It’s immunologically stressful.And then it swings your estrogen back up and you get this hypersensitive profile. But so all of these, what I call catalytic events were common in these people. And it’s not just one, it’s any one of them. And what I found was if I could identify what their initial triggers were categorically, right? Environmental things, chemical things, food. And if I could desensitize them to those, everything would settle down. And, and that was, that’s been the key to working with those people. But they want to tell you how horrible their life is today. Dr. Deb Muth 30:17Yeah. Tyvincent 30:17And you got to listen to that because you need the connection. You need to understand what they’re dealing with. You need to understand what their baseline is so that you can compare going forward. But the answers, the solutions aren’t in that story. And the solutions are in the history. And like, what’s the first thing you remember? And all this, like, okay, well, let’s go with foods. Let’s go with chemicals, whatever. And if somebody has distinctly worst triggers, right? Because right now they react kind of to everything. Any foods that you absolutely don’t eat because they give you the absolute worst reaction pattern, right? Oh yeah, I can’t eat these things. They’re the worst. Okay, well, maybe we’ll start with those and you can use those foods as your test exposures to determine if the dose works each time. So that’s one of the things I’ve developed stylistically over the years is the use of a test exposure if we’re using an allergen extract so that you can confirm or deny whether the therapy worked, right? Because people will tell you, oh, I feel better.Turns out that’s not worth much. You really need like, I mean, And belief is a huge part of that. Placebo effect is a huge part of that. You want to find something relatively objective, you know, so will you still vomit when you have chicken? You know, cause that’s like, that’s pretty obvious. And then go with that, you know, or do you still get a rash when you put on a bandaid? I love it when people get rashes from contact cause they can show me pictures and it’s not subjective, turns out. But even those reactions can go away 100% with placebo doses. It’s fascinating how people respond to placebos. So anyway, I try to find like the root beginning allergens. And then a lot of these people also accumulate other target antigens as they go through their process of being ill. Their immune system is so upset and it’s, it’s also just blurry vision, right? It attacks anything. Angry dog on a chain. If you get close enough, it’ll bite you. It doesn’t care who you are. And that’s how their immune systems get.So finding the antigens that are root cause is key. But a lot of these people have developed over time total adrenal burnout. Out, right? Because they’re in state of chronic inflammation, everything. So I also found that I had to lean on my skill in bioidentical hormone therapy, which over all the years I’ve been in integrative medicine, the two major skill areas that gave me the best results in general were hormonal management and immunological modulation. I got so many of the prior failures I was able to solve with those two things. And so if I would support these people’s adrenal, like hormones, you know, DHEA, cortisol, to optimal levels, a lot of them, their symptoms would cut by half, number one. And you would have a little more clarity as to what their actual triggers were.So in a lot of these cases, I learned to start with that before I even decided what antigens to pick. You can kind of get the snowstorm to calm down. You can start to find the snowmen in the blizzard that you couldn’t see before with all the chaos. I was like, okay, now that you’re feeling better most of the time, you can tell that these chemicals bother you, that mold exposure bothers you, that whatever, and then you can target things But the other third kind of leg of the tripod that I found are the keys to success with our most complex patients is to address like the hormonal issue, the immunological issue, but the subconscious fear response, the subconscious stress response in them. Dr. Deb Muth 33:14Trauma. Tyvincent 33:15And I saw that you’ve also people, yeah, trauma and people have medical trauma, not just trauma from their illness itself, but trauma from seeing 12 doctors that treated them like they were a head case and ignored what’s going on. Dr. Deb Muth 33:25Of the medical community, right? Tyvincent 33:27Oh God, you know, like people— yeah, the more doctors you see, the more your trust in doctors goes down. Dr. Deb Muth 33:34Yes, exactly. Tyvincent 33:35They see one of us and some of them just automatically are like, whatever, here’s another failure coming my way, kind of thing, you know, realistic. Partly because it becomes too risky to have hope, right? Like after a while you’ve had hope, hope, and it’s been dashed, and you just can only handle that so many times. It’s like you fall in love and then they dump W. And after a while you’re like, I’m celibate. I don’t care anymore. Um, so you get these people and what we have found, my wife and I started doing psychedelic-assisted therapy with patients a few years back. In fact, this little cottage on my property we built specifically for that purpose. People can come and stay here for a couple of days.There’s a bedroom on the other side of this wall. And we do therapy with them. We have a very good process of getting their hormones tested before they come, trying to correct any deficiencies or imbalances, especially cortisol and DHEA. We try to make sure that if they have immune problems that seem manageable, we maybe try to control those first. But in a lot of these people, we have to get their subconscious fire alarm to go off first because anything new that enters into their sphere of existence is seen as this, you know, scary thing. Dr. Deb Muth 34:36Yeah. Tyvincent 34:36And so what we found is getting their subconscious to settle down, getting them to integrate past whatever trauma they’ve had so that it’s no longer causing harm today from an experience 20 years ago, right? Because that’s not fair. A lot of these people, all of their immune stuff stops and I don’t even have to do LDI. And that’s fascinating. And some of them, we put them on hormone replacement, everything calms down enough. It’s like one of these things sometimes works. And in other people, they need all three. And the trick in those people is to figure out what thread you have to pull on first. You know, it’s like, well, okay. And we spend a lot of time, my wife and I both work with patients together. She’s amazing. She’s not a trained clinical clinician. You know, she had a business degree, but she’s like, she tells people I attended the school of Dr. Ty Vincent for 10 years. Dr. Deb Muth 35:20Yes. Tyvincent 35:21Heard him say all this a million times. And when we first started seeing patients from home together, she read all of my patient notes and just great. So she. Dr. Deb Muth 35:28Yeah, that’s how you learn. Tyvincent 35:30Yeah. And people like, well, I didn’t go she’s like, I didn’t go to medical school. I’m like, that’s an asset, trust me. Dr. Deb Muth (35:34-35:40)Exactly. Oh my God, you haven’t been brainwashed. Exactly. Tyvincent 35:40And you know, it’s not even so much washing as it is like throwing mud all over the walls. All of these false beliefs you’re given, and, you know, not just the beliefs, but the disbeliefs, both of those hold people back. And I was like, it’s your disbeliefs that are the bigger problem because you don’t even realize they’re there. Like when I learned about LDA, I’m like, that’s nonsense. No, it’s not. Dr. Deb Muth 36:02I’m curious, when you treat some of these complex people with LDI, are you using multiple modalities at one time, or are you being really cautious with them and using one at a time? Time, because some of them won’t let you do more than one thing at a time with them. Tyvincent 36:16And so by modalities, you mean like, are we also doing hormone therapy? Are they also doing like IV, like other things? Or you mean multiple antigens within? Dr. Deb Muth 36:24Multiple antigens, yeah. Tyvincent 36:25Um, it really depends. And early on, so I everything I know about LDI, I learned through experience, paying attention, putting connecting dots over you. And it’s been been a very long process, right? Early on, like a kid in a candy store, you see a patient and you find out, oh, they’re allergic to some foods, they’re allergic to some chemicals, they’re allergic to cats and birch tree pollen, and they also have psoriasis or whatever. And you’re like, ooh, I’m going to give you all 4 of these antigen mixtures because you have all 4 of these issues. And by 6 months in, if you’re paying attention, you are completely confused and lost. Dr. Deb Muth 37:03Yeah. Tyvincent 37:04I did that for a number of years and I thought, well, this will be the fastest way to figure things out. It turns out it’s not, unfortunately. Um, what I’ve found is more successful is if I can figure out either what the most important underlying immune reaction is for them that might be cascading into other problems, or you figure out what’s the easiest one to solve first. So if somebody has like the whole mast cell picture and they got all this stuff going on, but they say the biggest thing is I have horrible chemical reactions. I’m a tr I’m trapped in my home. I created an oasis of safety here, but I can’t go anywhere. Anyone who comes to my house has to go into the entryway and take all their clothes off and put on a jumpsuit, right? There are those people. I work with them. Dr. Deb Muth 37:40Oh yeah, I have those clients. Tyvincent 37:42They’re like, oh my God. Well, if we can fix that first, your world will open up a ton. Your fear will come down. Your immune response will come down. And so sometimes it’s a matter of which one seems the most important or which one seems easiest. Like, okay, the test exposures that they have are the most obvious and distinct. For foods and not chemicals or whatever. And the reactions people have to these different antigens can overlap tremendously or even look exactly the same, which is why you kind of need to use one at a time. Because if you’re trying to ride a bike and a motorcycle at the same time, it doesn’t go so well. Dr. Deb Muth 38:16Yeah. Tyvincent 38:16Like, let’s find where you do with where you respond to this one, and then we will have less stuff to deal with. We might have a little bit more clarity as to what you’re reacting to in other categories. And then you kind of go through them sequentially. But if I have somebody who’s not like just in a real state of immunological distress like that, and they go, yeah, I’m allergic to cats and I have a cat because I’ll never get rid of my cat. I don’t understand those people, but, but there are a lot of them. They love their cats. Dr. Deb Muth 38:43A lot of them. Yes. Tyvincent 38:44I’m like, okay, or dog, you know, I’ve had people that are horribly allergic to dogs and the dog still sleeps in bed with them every night. Dr. Deb Muth 38:50Okay. Tyvincent 38:51Um, they’ve got that, that’s very clear, very distinct. And it’s, and it’s like a rash or a runny nose. And then they also have have celiac disease, let’s say. Like, well, we can treat both of those at the same time because the symptoms are totally different. You have test exposures in both categories and you’re not so sick that you’re in a constant state of like trauma response where you can’t even pay attention to anything. Right. And so it’s kind of case by case. And my style is very, very individualized. Like I said, there’s never a protocol. It’s like, I got to talk to people for about I usually talk to people for about an hour. Yeah. More than isn’t really helpful. You know, like, in an hour of time, you’re, you’re kind of saturated with how much you can invest your bandwidth into this particular issue. Now, like, okay, I know where we’re going to start. I don’t know where we’re going to end up, but I know where we’re going to start. And so we encapsulate that and then go, let’s do this. And then everything you do teaches you more about what else you need to do.And it’s a process. I my ego used to be more tied to guessing correctly at the beginning about what was going to work work and to fixing things quickly. And over time I realized like your ego really has no place in the exam room. Like that is a very, very challenging thing for practitioners to try to figure out is how to get your ego out of this because it biases you intellectually, emotionally, and it’s a problem. And our medical colleagues probably have bigger egos than the average human in the population. Let’s be honest. Um, there’s something that comes with the years of study and the investment and the status you have, and it’s a challenge. But if you be like, I just need to be clear about what’s happening, what’s not happening, and you figure things out. And so I was able to have a much better success rate approaching things that way.And every time you put out one little fire for people, one kind of immune response, it, you, you get a better picture about what else is going on. And then eventually all their problems have stopped and you’re okay, cool. I guess we’re done. But it’s, it’s hard. And you do learn that there are still major gaps in your knowledge. And, and you asked earlier about new developments in LDI. And whatnot. And I could literally talk all day about the things that I’ve developed over the years, but I still keep making new antigens. So just last year in the area of food allergy, so like your Mast Cell people, a lot of them have food allergies that are a big part of the underlying problem, and this will be relevant to them. But what I found is a lot of the people who seem to clearly react to food, and I put food in quotes because most of what Americans eat isn’t food, right? It’s it’s at least it’s not just food, or it used to be food and now it’s not. It’s like Frankenfood, and it’s got chemicals in it. It has molecules that don’t exist in nature, so you can react to them.So I found some of these people that would say, oh, I react to processed food items horribly, but if I eat the whole foods, organic whole foods at home, I don’t react. And, um, some of those people will resolve those problems with the chemical LD mixture. So they’re reacting to chem with that. A lot of them will tell you, oh, I also react to perfume. Or gasoline or whatever. Dr. Deb Muth 41:46Yeah. Tyvincent 41:46Okay. And so you can use that and some of those cases will resolve, but a lot of them don’t. And I had increasing failures. Like I’ve been doing this long enough to see and observe that early on I had much better success with these antigen mixtures than over time. People are the pattern and the causes and the manifestations of illness today are evolving right before our eyes because of what we’ve done to our environment and our food and ourselves. So what I came to to sort of theorize about was that maybe some of these people are reacting to processed cooking oils, like seed oils, plant oils that are put into processed foods, right? Because they would tell me a couple of key cases gave me that insight. They would say, well, I still react to all these processed foods.I can’t eat at restaurants, and I’m still reacting horribly to sesame seeds, or I’m still reacting horribly to flax, or I’m still reacting horribly to, like, one of these other things we make processed seed oils from. Well, maybe they’re reacting to the oils. And when we made the food mixture, you use whole food samples, right? So you use like a, a ses like sesame seeds, or I use tahini paste because it’s easier to mix in water. But maybe the antigen, the target antigen, is something inside that that is not properly like, what’s the word I’m looking for properly given to the immune system, or, or like exposed, shown to the immune system, right, in the way that their immune system is reacting to it. Maybe it’s a molecule in there that when you use a whole food antigen is not adequately represented. It’s like, so an oil would do that.And I had actually already years ago realized that some people react to essential oils, like flower extracts or tea tree oil or lavender or whatever. Right. And so I made an essential oils mixture from plant oils from the doTERRA and the Young Living products. I had a couple of patients that were like distributors for these things. And I said, just take an empty vial and put one drop of every single product you have in it and just mail it to me. And they both did that. So I have this huge compendium of essential oils, and I would get people that would still react to oranges and lemons and citrus fruits despite the food mixture. And then the essential oils mixture would totally stop that reaction. So I’d already kind of proven that this was the case with some of those more aromatic oils, right? Now I was like, well, people are reacting to the processed cooking oils because when you take oils out of the plant, if you ever do this at home, they’re opaque and gooey and viscous. And then somehow it’s this really pretty homogeneous, clear liquid that doesn’t separate at all. It has no nothing you see in there.And then you got to wonder, how the hell did they do that? What did they do to make that? And there are all these chemical processes and heat and everything. I’m like, well, it just makes new molecules that your immune system has never seen before. So in May of 2025, I bought 18 different kinds of plant oils, and some of them are really pure, like carrot seed oil, cottonseed oil. But there’s peanut oil and avocado oil and olive oil and, you know, all the seeds and things we use in there. And I even have a video on our Facebook page and probably Instagram of me making this mixture in my kitchen.I was like, people are kind of interested how this works. And I just made it right there on camera because it’s really simple. I started using it in some of my failure cases that had really seemed like they had food allergy responses, but the food mixture didn’t work. And the first one was actually one of our employees who does our social media management. She had a 3-year-old son, I think, probably 2 years old when we started working with him, with really bad body-wide eczema, right? And he never really responded to the food mixture, essential oils, skin bacteria, skin fungi, yeast. I tried all the things that usually work. I’m like, it’s something. And so he made the oil mixture. He was they were the first one. I just sent the doses like, hey, let’s check it out. And I think he got for I started 6C for most things, which is a truly and then it’s like 5.5C, 5C. We got to 3.5C, I think, is where he is, which is a dilution of of 10 million to 1, I believe. And 95% of his eczema just completely went away. Dr. Deb Muth 45:38Wow. Tyvincent 45:39The only thing left was a couple of those patches on his feet. And one of the things I learned about people with eczema is they will have localized, like geographically local consistent reactions to different things. This is crazy, right? Dr. Deb Muth 45:53Yeah. Tyvincent 45:53Your immune system has kind of a, you know, like an overall regulatory system, but it also has regionalized systems, just like the government federal government, state government, county government, city government. It’s, it’s divided like that. So the people will eventually learn, oh, if I eat gluten, I get these itchy bumps on the side of my hand, and if I eat carrots, I get a rash on top of my head, you know. And it’s very, very clear once you identify it. So there’s still something that kid’s reacting to that I haven’t quite solved on his feet. But, um, yeah, that worked amazingly, and it actually made me cry when I got the pictures She’s like, oh, finally, after probably a year and a half of flailing, you know, we got it right. And so now I’ve been using the cooking oils mixture more and more and more. Just yesterday I got an email. I have a teenager, he’s 8, he’s maybe 18, 17, 18, with just really horrible cystic acne, painful, erupting. And the before pictures are just hard to look. I mean, he’s got horrible involvement of both sides of the face, the chest, all over his back, and you can just see the scarring and the redness and the inflammation.And we went through the food mixture with him and whatnot, and it really didn’t touch it. So yesterday I got the report. He got up to the cooking oil mixture at 2.5C, which is 10,000, 100,000 to 1, and, and his cystic acne stopped. Like, he’s getting zero new lesions. All the redness, pain, inflammation is gone, but he still has all this just scarring from it because that’s permanent, right? You have to get that repurposed. And all he has left is little tiny whitehead pimples, like maybe one new one per day here and there. You can see them now in the midst of all this. So acne is diversified. There are different kinds of acne and people can have more than one type and they can react to hormones. They can react like I’ve had guys with bad acne respond to desensitization with testosterone, for example, or women desensitizing them to estrogen or progesterone and the acne will go away sometimes. Some people respond to yeast, some people respond to skin bacteria, skin fungi. And so this is another thing. And my wife actually is one of the more complicated immunological cases I’ve ever had to work with. Working together for 10 years, um, you know, like the first time I saw her, she had Lyme disease and the Lyme LDI just totally stopped those symptoms like magic, which is great.That’s one of my favorite things to treat. Um, because the beliefs we have about Lyme disease, I have found completely untrue because using a different tool. I’m like, oh, it’s an immune problem, not an infection. So anyway, so that, that worked for her. Some of her food reactions went away, but she still continued to get like deep painful cysts if she would have nuts or dairy. And so the cooking oil mixture now, after 10 years of being together, totally stopped those reactions. Peanuts, nuts, dairy. And the dairy one is interesting to me because it’s not a plant oil, right? It’s an animal oil and it’s not represented. And we have dairy products in our other mixture. But I think what’s happening is when cows are fed grain, sometimes what an animal is eating carries through some essence or nature of that substance into the milk. Um, and the thing I’ve seen this the most clearly with is corn. Corn allergy is a very unique situation. The way people deal with it, the way it manifests, the way you have to treat it is different from every other energy. And I don’t have an hour to talk about that specifically, but I observed primarily with corn that anywhere along the food chain, you’ll still react to that food if the animal at the beginning was ever fed corn. Multiple I’ll have babies that get an eczema reaction or a GI reaction if mom eats corn-fed beef. But if mom eats grass-fed beef and then nurses the baby, they’re fine. Dr. Deb Muth 49:33Yeah, I’ve seen that too. Tyvincent 49:34It’s bizarre. Dr. Deb Muth 49:35Yeah. Tied. This has been really so amazing. Um, tell us how people can find you if, if this is resonating with them and they’re like, I need him to figure out the puzzle for me. How do they find you? Tyvincent 49:49So the best thing to do is to go to our website. Our, our business name is Global Immunotherapy, and the website is just http://www.globalimmunotherapy.com. We have, we have a much better website than we did years ago. People schedule directly through the website. Right? There’s all kinds of information. I’ve been making YouTube videos and informational videos for people for more than a decade now because nobody has any idea what I’m talking about. The more they understand it beforehand, one, they get to decide if they just think I’m crazy, right? And they don’t want to waste their time. And there are plenty of those people, but a lot end up talking to me 3 years later because after they’ve tried everybody else and there’s nothing left to try, right? Yeah, yeah, like being at the bottom of the desperation funnel. Yeah, people like, well, I heard about you 5 years ago and didn’t make sense. I’m like, yeah, cool. But then I had 3 or 4 other people over the years tell me I should talk to you. So here I am. That’s, that’s right. And people can watch all these educational instructional videos about how LDI works, what it can be used for. So the more you learn and understand what you’re getting into ahead of time, the less time we have to spend during our hour trying to explain to you the therapy., which to take up half the time and better results you’re going to get because you’re educated and it’s a partnership.Like all of us in the world of integrative medicine, one of the big differences between us and conventional medicine is we understand that it’s a partnership. You have to listen to the patient, you have to educate the patient, you have to engage them in their own health. You can’t just say, here, take this pill and come back in 3 months and I’ll check your labs again to see that you still have the same illness. It’s just and people have a lot of our population has been led to believe that just swallowing a pill is going to fix your problems. But That doesn’t work. And we have to develop a relationship and an understanding and shared knowledge and beliefs. And so people now, they have this opportunity to watch all the videos. And I really want people to do that before they ever schedule, because one, you’ll, you’ll feel like it’s the right therapy for you. And that helps a lot. Having optimism going in is super helpful. And then two, you already know a lot. So you’ll know more about what questions I might ask you and how to answer them. You’ll know more about about how the therapy works, and I won’t have to explain it to you, and we’ll get a better use of our time. And then people can schedule right through the website with either myself or my wife Jeanette. And anybody who Jeanette talks to, she reviews every case with me, and we work together with stuff. And, but in terms of like using LDI, she’s probably the second or third best practitioner in the world. I

Strong cattle demand continues to push prices higher, with a standout Matawhero sale delivering exceptional returns despite East Coast road closures. AgriHQ analyst Suz Bremner explains the impact of weather and tight supply on the market.

Why should we eat Cloned meat when organic food is not extinct.

The European Union took a step toward adapting its food production to the new ways of the world: The 27-nation bloc wants to embrace the latest gene techniques it hopes will help safely counter global challenges like climate change and shortages. For decades, the EU was conservative in allowing the use of genetically modified organisms — which often brought up connotations of Frankenfood rather than improved crop production — while the United States and others quickly adopted the new bioengineered technologies. However, the EU's executive commission threw its weight behind so-called new genomic techniques, which seek to change organisms in a much less intrusive way than the GMOs of old, and to allow many to be sold without special labeling. “In many ways, new genomic techniques can give you the same results as through conventional and natural selection, or through targeted crossbreeding, but with much more speed, precision and efficiency,” European Commission Vice President Frans Timmermans said. The new techniques are intended to make plants better able to withstand drought while requiring fewer pesticides and to create products with better color and more consistency that are more attractive to consumers. Unsurprisingly, large farming companies welcomed the EU's plans and environmentalists mounted opposition. The proposal is only the start of a drawn-out process since member nations and the European Parliament must endorse the plans before they can become reality. Environmentalists are fully alarmed again, fearing that the newest tools still pose too many dangers and must undergo much better testing. “Whether it's a toy or a face cream, any product on the market needs to be safety tested. Why would there be an exemption for GMOs that end up in our fields or on our plates,” said Eva Corral of Greenpeace. "Biotech companies have long considered these safety procedures an unnecessary bother and it's disappointing to see the commission agree with them.” If done right, the proposal will ensure European competitiveness, lower emissions and more food globally, European Parliament member Jessica Polfjärd said.  This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Have no doubt, we face dangerous chemical weapons in our war for justice. They are developed, perfected and sold by evil corporations. The hospital hell and a per patient bounty of 100k. A horrific mishmash of evil. The fear factors are how the gov't does everything. Malaria, HIV, and what discoveries they suppressed. The goal was to keep Africa in the dark. Hemophilia, blood chemistry and the clot shots. The history of I.G. Farben, German roots and Frankenfood. RNA serves as a prime vector. How could they delete something from WikiLeaks? You might as well include weather modification. Three things to fix are elections, state's sovereignty, and too many federal employees. Big pharma overrides local opposition. Looking forward to laboratory food. Targeting perfect genes. Selective kidnapping is real. The big five are oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon and phosphorous. A ring of fire and spontaneous human combustion. Burning mysteries and pharma history. There is rising talk of a new chemical war tribunal. Informed patriots must rely on each other, because achieve justice is up to us. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Hour 2 // 2.7 -- Travis makes Frankenfood -- The guys discuss some early storylines in the Super Bowl

On this episode of the NTEB Prophecy News Podcast, if I was a date setter, which I am not, but if I was I could make a pretty good case for the years 2020, 2021 and 2022 being the last 3 years before the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church takes place, with the time of Jacob's trouble starting in 2023 and ending in 2030. There's your 7 years in a nice, neat little package. Why do I say that? Because of the vast preponderance of Bible verses with the numbers 20, 21 and 22 all pointing to the end of the Church Age. (Places like Revelation 3:20-22,  Revelation 22:20,21, and a couple dozen more besides that). Another reason I might speculate along these lines is because of the Agenda 2030 which seems to be the year that the New World Order is anticipating the culmination of their takeover. In the meantime on this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Bill Gates and his Goalkeepers 2030 Agenda is something you absolutely need to know about, all this and more! Have you heard of something called Goalkeepers 2030? I only learned of it over the weekend, and let me tell you, if you think Bill Gates is slowing down in his end times quest to turn the 1970's camp classic movie 'Soylent Green' into a documentary, you would be mistaken. Bill Gates is America's largest farmland owner, and what he intends to grow on all that land is nothing short of a horror show. Welcome to Day 931 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve.

As the old adage goes, you are what you eat. But do you really know what you are eating on a daily basis? You might be surprised to find out that the institutions in charge of keeping our food safe are really not as interested in your health as you think. In episode 39, we sit down with long time GMO activist John Diaz as he breaks down the corporate monster that is the bio tech industry and gives you tips on how to avoid Frankenfood Fever!For full episodes check out deadrabbitssociety.com!2008 Presidential Panel on Cancer: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#imp/FMfcgxwLtGqDjZpnPLxtZVTVGdMnlZTh?projector=1&messagePartId=0.1GM Watch, Michael Antoniou, a London-based molecular geneticist, explained that significant changes could occur due to genetic editing, in both agricultural and medical contexts, necessitating long-term safety and toxicity studies. He explained:15"Many of the genome editing-induced off-target mutations, as well as those induced by the tissue culture, will no doubt be benign in terms of effects on gene function. However, many will not be benign and their effects can carry through to the final marketed product, whether it be plant or animal …Thus not only is it necessary to conduct whole genome sequencing to identify all off-target mutations from CRISPR-based genome editing, but it is also essential to ascertain the effects of these unintended changes on global patterns of gene function.… In addition, it is important to acknowledge that the targeted intended change in a given gene may also have unintended effects. For example, the total disruption or modification of an enzyme function can lead to unexpected or unpredictable biochemical side-reactions that can markedly alter the composition of an organism, such as a food crop.The compositional alterations in food products produced with genome editing techniques will not be fully revealed by the molecular profiling methods due to the current inherent limitations of these techniques. So it is still necessary to conduct long-term toxicity studies in established animal model systems. In the absence of these analyses, to claim that genome editing is precise and predictable is based on faith rather than science."Gene Editing May Not Be as Precise as It SeemsResearchers at the U.K.'s Wellcome Sanger Institute systematically studied mutations from CRISPR-Cas9 in mouse and human cells, focusing on the gene-editing target site. Large genetic rearrangements were observed, including DNA deletions and insertions, that were spotted near the target site.They were far enough away, however, that standard tests looking for CRISPR-related DNA damage would miss them. The DNA deletions could end up activating genes that should stay "off," such as cancer-causing genes, as well as silencing those that should be "on."16CRISPR-Cas9 also leads to the activation of the p53 gene, which works to either repair the DNA break or kill off the CRISPR-edited cell.17 CRISPR actually has a low efficacy rate for this reason, and CRISPR-edited cells that survive are able to do so because of a dysfunctional p53.The problem is that p53 dysfunction is also linked to cancer (including close to half of ovarian and colorectal cancers and a sizable portion of lung, pancreatic, stomach, breast and liver cancers as well).18https://www.nexusnewsfeed.com/article/science-futures/genetic-editing-of-animals-has-horrible-side-effects/#GMOs #Monsanto #frankenfood #bigpharma #bigagra #glyphosate #rounduplawsuits #roundup #geneticallymodifiedorganism #covidvaccine #vaccinecourt #yesonprop37 #billgates #eugenics #dupont #dowchemical #leakygut #crisprgeneediting #presidentialpaneloncancer #johndiaz #goldenrice #mrnatechnology #rockefeller #algore #sunrisemovement #gmoinsulin #georgesoros #depopulation

Sam Parr (@TheSamParr) and Shaan Puri (@ShaanVP):MFM #158Rewarding hustle: MFM is hiring two kids to do video production because they took the job without permission. They heard Sam complain about needing a recording studio and offered to do the work https://twitter.com/DylanJardon/status/1366274333858017282?s=20. This is how you get the job you want. Don’t send a resume. Do the work instead. Don’t ask for permission.Food topicsThe food companies of Instagram: Companies mycookiedealer.com, 1-900-Ice-Cream, and Allie’s Banana Bread are crushing it on IG with food drops that sell out in seconds.Why it’s big: These work because it’s at the intersection of many trends: cloud kitchens (no need for expensive restaurant infrastructure), DTC (no need to get costly distribution deals and shelf space) and have virality baked into them.My Cookie Dealer is estimated to be doing $200k per weekly drop. This is a potential $10m business today.Formula: Sam breaks down how these companies are going viral, and how you can copy.Make a side ingredient the main thing (cheese, cookie dough)Make it in an unusual color (rainbow bagel, rainbow kettle cork, green ketchup, cloud bread)Make it huge (huge sundae, massive pizza cookie, sushi rito, massive kit kat)Frankenfood: combine two different foods (cronut, pancake cereal, donut cereal, cream cheese, bell pepper, desert burger, ramen burger, spaghetti donuts, fairy bread)Food allergy or remove stuff from it (vega ice cream, Banza)Make junk food or simple food ultra-fancy (tater tots, mozzarella sticks)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IFYt20QON8 Opportunities: So what’re the opportunities here? The guys break it down.#1: Rolling up these brands like IMGM did for meme pages or Thrasio is doing for ecom. A collection of profitable IG food businesses lowers costs (everything can be done in the same kitchen) and lowers risk (if one fad food falls out of favor, the business doesn’t die).#2: Guy Fieri of IG. Food reviews are extremely popular when paired with the right personality. Guy Fieri is the Gen X version of this. Dave Portnoy is the pizza version of this. Who will be the millennial/Gen Z IG/TikTok star?#3: Cold chain. Cold chain demand is skyrocketing with the increase of foods being shipped. Further, any company that can make the process of shipping these foods easier, will win.#4: “Eat this, Not That” for 2021. Extremely popular book series from ~15 years ago. There are similar pages doing this on social media today, but no one has made a big business out of it yet.Tiller moneySpreadsheet plugins: The guys have talked Chrome plugins and browser extensions in the past, but an overlooked niche is spreadsheet plugins.Plugins are great businesses because they are sticky and capitalize on an existing platform and user base. They can be light, simple tools that can gain huge adoption quickly. Tiller Money (https://www.tillerhq.com/): Personal finance nerd Sam loves the simplicity of this plugin.

Since then the prefix- has caught on and become shorthand for human efforts to interfere with nature, especially where genetic modification is concerned, and it is almost always used in a pejorative sense.7:52 - See the famous “It’s Alive” scene from the 1931 version of Frankenstein19:43 - See “AI Has Arrived, And That Really Worries The World’s Brightest Minds” (Wired, 2015) or “An Open Letter: Research Priorities for Robust and Beneficial Artificial Intelligence” or “Benefits & Risks of Artificial Intelligence” from the Future of Life Institute25:17 - Cultural memes - “In this broad sense, a meme can be thought of as an idea which often carries symbolic meaning, that becomes a fad and spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture. A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas that can be transmitted from one mind to another through various means, and seem to, for better or for worse, evolve over time.

For many people, those attitudes are adopted rather informally from the surrounding culture, rather than arising out of rigorous personal reflection. Each new generation of people doesn’t invent the rules of living from scratch; we inherit ideas and values that have evolved over vast stretches of time. At the moment, the dominant image of the world remains one in which human life is cosmically special and significant, something more than mere matter in motion. We need to do better at reconciling how we talk about life’s meaning with what we know about the scientific image of our universe.”This episode was recorded in January 2020The “Beautiful Illusions Theme” was performed by Darron Vigliotti (guitar) and Joseph Vigliotti (drums), and was written and recorded by Darron Vigliotti

Ingredients like "natural flavorings & colorings" and "rosemary extract" sound benign...until you dig deeper and find out how these terms misrepresent the ingredients that are actually in our food. Today, nutritionist Cyndi O'Meara of Changing Habits, and author of "Lab to Table," peels back food labels, revealing the dark underbelly of the food industry: how our health is being sacrificed for profit. Cyndi defines terms and explains how we're in a new age of biotechnology that allows chemists to genetically modify micro-organisms (not just crops) and insert them into our food. And then said micro-organisms are labeled with familiar names like "citric acid." Cyndi discusses questionable ingredients in synthetic meats and foods labeled "natural." And she also offers suggestions for how to avoid becoming lab rats in this grand experiment. The first step is to take our health into our own hands. This includes buying local food, from trusted farmers, and getting back into the kitchen, making meals out of single-ingredient foods.  Visit Cyndi's website: changinghabits.com.au  Become a member of the Weston A.

Frankenfoods, GMOs, GM seeds, transgenic crops: call them what you will, genetically-modified foods are everywhere in the food chain.  The dangers are proven.  Why, then, hasn't the FDA worked harder at regulation?  

When losing weight, you've got to stick to the rules and follow the program. But once you get to maintenance, it’s all about finding what works for you over the long term.  People often come to think there's only one way to eat for everybody - that is just simply not true. Now, we do believe that there's never really a place for processed Frankenfood crap. Talking of having Slurpees from a 7-Eleven every day, and having Ding Dongs and Ho Hos every day, there's not a place for that, but other than those foods, there really isn't just one way to eat for every single person. There's just not one right way, and that's how Code Red was born. The program was born because I got heavy and fat. I put on quite a bit of weight even though I was exercising three to five hours a day. When I realized that it was all diet-related, and that exercise had nothing to do with losing weight, I created Code Red as a mixture of many different programs. It is a mixture of Atkins, paleo, Mediterranean, keto - lots of different things. I mixed them all and came up with Code Red, so you're going to see things that they allow on keto, that we don't allow on Code Red. Once you lose your weight on Code Red, we transition you to a maintenance group, and we encourage our rebels to find what works for them because they might be a little different. We're really strict during weight loss, but during maintenance, although we still have our core values and rules in place, we do want you to mess with the formula, just in case you think you are missing something or you think you want to try something else out. You need to have the right plan for you to match your goals and to whatever is going on in your life, right then. For instance, if you are training for a marathon, and you are in our maintenance group, we are going to change your diet a bit. We’re going to help you determine what carbs you need to help fuel you for that marathon. If your goal is to get super shredded and super lean, we're going to keep you on Code Red. I might even put you on a carnivorous diet, I don't know. And so we're really going to adjust you down, but you have to find what works for you.  In the short term, we want you to eat according to Code Red. We want you to stay strict. I want you to stick to the food list. Do not deviate from your custom program plan. You do exactly what I say until every last drop is gone, and then, I switch to playing the long game - What can we do for you long term, that is going to keep this weight off for the rest of your life. Weight loss and maintenance modes are not that different, but there are going to be some shifts. To know more, stay tuned as Cari and I explain to you how one size just does not fit everybody. Key Points of Discussion: He's able to build muscle on veganism; not everybody is that way (6:28) Code Red was born as a mixture of many different programs (6:44) We encourage our rebels to find out what works for them in maintenance mode (7:48) Be wary of too much stress on your body in the fat-burning mode (8:09) We change people's food when they’re on maintenance as per their goal (12:05) What works for me, might not work for Cari (12:05) Different case: She's not exercising. She doesn't have a big calorie demand… (13:12) I don't want you coming to Code Red just for short-term ends (15:48) I don't want to see you add certain foods back in, but there are some foods you can, if it works for you (16:32) What are you eating now and how is that working? (17:25) We have a very strategic protocol to transitioning you into maintenance. And it's only adding one thing at a time (18:27) What is working for you right now may not be what works down the road (20:12) Being a “nutrivore”, meaning picking the best quality you can, of your food, and finding the eating style that works for you (26:38) It’s about accountability, and long-term sustainability (28:01) You can’t take Phentermine every day for the rest of your life and expect it not to hurt your body, but you can do Code Red every day for the rest of your life (28:18) If you clean up your diet, you can find out what is going to work for you (30:05) We only want what you can keep up with for the rest of your life - for you to keep your weight down and still feel good (32:25) ---------------------------------------------  Additional Resources: Get your FREE copy of the On-The-Go Guide for Code Red approved food here: http://bit.ly/on-the-go-guide  You can find out more about Cristy and the topic covered in this episode by checking out her website here.  --------------------------------------------- Lose your first, next, or last 10 pounds with absolutely NO pills, powders, shakes, or exercise required.  Click here to take the 10-pound takedown challenge!

Intro: Chandra’s mom: Minutes 0 to :30 Chandra’s mom is doing better and is being moved into a facility where she can receive physical therapy. Chandra took care of some tricky insurance issues and her mom should be fully covered. Candace Bushnell and our aging parents: Minutes :30 to 8 Candace Bushnell decided to move to the Hamptons with her friends, which makes Chandra think about her mom’s preparations for retirement. We talk about caring for our aging parents. My parents moved away a year ago and I miss them so much. Chandra cared for her father in his later years and doesn’t want to be in a similar situation with her mom. We conclude it’s a PITA either way. Candace also talked about turning 50 and how it feels like you’re erased. We compare this to Gwyneth Paltrow’s perspective that she’s no longer the hot young thing. Duchess Meghan guest edited British Vogue and has another charity project: Minutes 8 to 19 We wonder why British Vogue released so many exclusive stories around Duchess Meghan’s guest edit of the September issue within a 24 hour news period. We both found Meghan’s writing tedious and too self-referential. This is our job so we have a different perspective on it and more experience of course. (For the record I did use the word “nestled” in a story once in 2011, however I was mirroring another description and didn’t come up with the word on my own.) Meghan did a capsule collection to benefit her patronage Smart Works, which provides interview training and wardrobes for women returning to the workforce. This was a clever and practical way to benefit this charity. Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes did a PDA-filled Miami pool photoshoot: Minutes 19 to 22 Camila Cabello, 22, and Shawn Mendes, 20, have been linked since they did the Senorita video in late June. We heard around the time it dropped that Camila had split with her boyfriend of about a year. In mid July there was a weird video of Camila and Shawn making out at a diner and they just did an old school Miami pool photoshoot where they’re kissing and hugging on each other. So many outlets had those photos, they’re not exclusives at all meaning that plenty of photographers were there and they’re so much fun. It really looks like a PR rollout but it’s fun. Frankenfood treats: Minutes 22 to 25:30 We discuss two new frankenfood treats, pumpkin pie Kit Kat and French’s mustard ice cream. Our old white chocolate feud gets reignited and Chandra is disgusted that I’ll try the pumpkin pie Kit Kats. I love mustard and defend good mustards. We can’t try the mustard ice cream as it’s only available in limited locations. User Questions: Minutes 25:30 to 28 Our user question is from CT on Twitter who asked us about our favorite celebrity feud. Chandra says there are a lot of depressing divorce feuds and her favorite fun feud is Taylor Swift vs. Kim Kardashian. She also like Nicki Minaj vs. Miley Cyrus and fondly remembers the Kristen Stewart scandal. Comments of The Week: Minutes 28 to 30 My comment of the week is from Sleanne on a post about Eva Longoria’s sister, who has an intellectual disability. Sleanne works in a residential home and wrote about her experiences there. Chandra’s COTW is Zapp Brannigan on the Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes post. Thanks for listening bitches!

Back in his student days, science writer and journalist Mark Lynas was one of the first and loudest voices of the anti-GMO movement. He wrote some of the most-read articles about genetically modified organisms, led protests, and may or may not have coined the term “Frankenfood”. But then he really looked into the science of GMO, and did a full 180. In a world-famous speech in 2013, Mark retracted his earlier views, and apologised for having destroyed GM crops. He’s since worked with smallholder farmers in Asia and Africa who, use GMO to better cope with pests, diseases and droughts. He is still an activist, but now he forefronts science in his activism.

The Earful Gang serves up some specials in this ep... But instead of meatloaf muzzarell from the homeland, it's deep analysis of the menacing meta-romantic-comedy overtures of Brian Flanagan! And instead of Chicken a la King (a la Delmonico's), we dive deep into abortion and how societal expectations of loyalty fit into gender roles! And in lieu of ketchup for your fries, we have so much more: cameos from Yolandi Visser and other stalwarts of the Toronto theatre scene, rating YouTube comments by creepiness, and a rare successful match in "Key Line Pie." Featuring a guest (and a magnificent three-way sync) in Matt Apfel, longtime "Cocktail" aficionado and formerly of "Frankenfood" (not a plug).

One of the latest technological advances in food production is the introduction of GMOs, or genetically modified organisms, to the food supply. They have the potential to offer many benefits including increased productivity, pest and herbicide resistance, longer shelf life, and the list goes on. But many are concerned that this relatively new technology isn’t safe – for health, the environment or the economy. We dig into the evidence surrounding GMOs in this episode. We might even share an opinion or two on whether the crops are just GMOs or Frankenfood.

With ocean views, a celebrity chef and the freshest seafood available, Lure Fishbar inside the Loews Miami Beach Hotel has quickly gained a large following since its opening in December 2013. Chat Chow TV sat down with Josh Capon, the Executive Chef and partner, to learn more about Lure, how it stacks up to the NYC outpost and what he has in store for Miami. Lure Fishbar has been an institution in NYC for more than 10 years — it’s so popular in fact that their was a social media outcry when rumors circulated that it may be closing. While the original outpost is still very much in business, the owner of the Lowes had been a big fan of the restaurant and convinced Capon and his team to come down to Miami. “We thought the space, the timing and location was perfect,” notes Capon. “And I think we’ve created something really special here.” While the restaurant’s menu has many similarities to its NYC sister location, such as fresh seafood towers, sushi and its famous Bash Burger, the menu also features unique dishes that showcase European and Latin flavors like Seared Diver Sea Scallops with Steamed Clams and Chorizo and Steamed Red Snapper with served Veracruz style. Heading up the bar program is bartending veteran Robert Ferrara, who has created a menu featuring creative cocktails filled with fresh ingredients that are perfect for its Miami Beach setting. Capon himself is a big fan. “He’s constantly coming up with new, inventive seasonal cocktails that blow people away,” adds Capon. “He’s a huge talent, an absolute pleasure, and we’re very lucky to have him.” Capon has plenty of exciting projects in the works, most notably his new half hour food competition show titled “Frankenfood” which just began to air on Spike TV this month. Want to learn the secret to Capon’s award-winning Bash Burger? Or find out how to get yourself a (possibly) complimentary drink? Watch the video above to find out all of that and more.

GMO: Label or Not? Jesus Arredondo, Principal and Founder, Advantage Government Consulting LLC Kent Bradford, Ph.D., Director of the Seed Biotechnology Center, University of California, Davis Ken Cook, President, Environmental Working Group Jessica Lundberg, Lundberg Family Farms Greg Dalton, Founder of Climate One, Moderator Proposition 37 on the upcoming California ballot is a high-stakes food fight with national implications. The measure would bring California, and by extension the United States, in line with the various GMO disclosure requirements already in place in Europe, Australia and Japan. Advocates for GMO labeling say consumers have a right to know if they are eating "Frankenfood." Food companies, led by Monsanto, Cargill, and General Mills, along with other critics, say disclosure would be misleading and alarm consumers. A Reuters story recently reported the proposition “could upend the U.S. food business from farm to fork if it prompts makers of popular foods to dump GMO ingredients.” What do we know about the safety of food with GMO ingredients? How would labeling impact the national food system? How much would it cost? Polls indicate voters favor GMO disclosure, but opponents, led by Monsanto, have a hefty war chest. Join a lively debate about one of the most controversial issues in the upcoming election. This program was recorded in front of a live audience at The Commonwealth Club of California in San Francisco on October 25, 2012

High on my special list of pathologically destructive corporations is Monsanto. Though their sins are legion, I’m going to focus on perhaps their most evil activity of all – their attempt to control virtually all farmers and all crop seeds, and to force those same farmers to use their genetically altered crops and toxic agri-chemicals.Although this is hard to believe, farmers have been successfully sued by Monsanto when Monsanto’s genetically-modified soybean and canola plants have shown up in their fields, carried there by birds and the wind. One Canadian farmer, who had been selectively breeding his own canola plants with his wife for decades, was sued when some of these Monsanto plants were found growing in a ditch alongside his property. This is where the entire affair, which is not unique to this one farmer, becomes positively Kafkaesque. Monsanto contended that this man had essentially stolen their seeds. They asked the court to levy a hefty fine, take all of the profits from his current canola crop, and most insidiously, they also asked the court to seize the man’s own proprietary canola breeds, the product of 50 years of careful selective breeding. Because of a few plants found in a ditch, Monsanto not only wanted to bankrupt this farmer, they wanted to steal his intellectual property as well.As utterly bizarre as it seems , the court upheld Monsanto’s claims in full. But this was no ordinary farmer. He appealed to Canada’s Saskatchewan appellate court, where the 3 justice panel again upheld Monsanto’s position. He appealed once more, this time to Canada’s Supreme Court, which agreed to hear the case. Somewhere along the line, Monsanto must have felt the winds of change, because they suddenly agreed to an out-of-court settlement. Not only will this brave farmer keep his seeds, and not pay any fines, but Monsanto will be legally liable for eliminating any of their contaminating GMO canola that finds its way onto his land. He has won, but thousands like him are daily being bullied, stolen from, and often bankrupted by this giant company that literally seeks control over the world’s seed supply. Monsanto’s contracts, signed by any farmer who wants to use their seed, say it all:The farmer cannot use his own seeds at all; he must only buy seeds from MonsantoThe farmer can only use Monsanto chemical fertilizers, insecticides and herbicides.Monsanto’s private investigative force, mostly composed of highly-coercive ex-law-enforcement officers is permitted to search their land whenever they want, without notice, for 3 years after they stop using Monsanto seed.Most incredibly: The farmer can never sue Monsanto. He must waive all rights to future lawsuits for any reason.When Monsanto and the other big GMO companies first started pushing their ‘Frankenfood’ products, they claimed that they would never interbreed with other strains, and would never ‘escape into the wild’. Just the opposite is true: all over Canada and the USA, their GMO canola can be found, spreading like an invasive weed. It’s in ditches everywhere, and it’s crowding out other strains. Indeed, it looks as if it’s now virtually impossible to grow completely non-GMO soy or canola anywhere on this continent.And just what are their seeds genetically modified to do? In the case of their canola, it’s called ‘Roundup Ready’, which means that the plants have been genetically modified to be highly resistant to Monsanto’s toxic Roundup herbicide. This allows canola farmers to blitz their fields with heretofore unheard of levels of toxic herbicides, a sort of slow-motion agent-oranging of the entire American and Canadian heartland.The creation of plants that will allow even more poisoning of the land, even more toxic residues in our foodstuffs, even more depletion of bees, butterflies and other natural pollinators is doubly, triply evil. The Europeans have been way ahead of us on this, banning GMO foods. A small band of Organic farmers is currently suing Monsanto for destroying their plant strains and infecting their fields. Not only do we need to support this David and Goliath struggle, but it’s time we revisit the entire GMO question. It’s time to ban all new GMO crops, and not just from commercial use, but from research plots too. GMO wheat is growing in small plots all over the US and Canada. Wheat is, of course, a relative of grass, and spreads just as readily. The fallacy that GMO plants can be segregated has been proven over and over. It’s time to take action and petition the Obama administration to follow Europe’s lead and ban GMO crops and crop research.

Genetically modified agricultural plants (cotton, soybeans, corn and canola, for example) have been grown in North America for 16 years and food derived from them marketed for almost as long. “Contrary to the impression the Greenpeace label “Frankenfood” conveys, increasing the food derived from genetically modified plants is essential for environmental protection and a safe abundant supply of food in the future,” Thompson said. In his lecture, Thompson will present the case supporting his claim. Thompson holds appointments as a professor and director in the Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Technology; in the departments of ecology and evolutionary biology, cell and systems biology, and philosophy; and also with the Joint Centre for Bioethics. He has published extensively on evolutionary theory, population genetics, mathematical modelling in biology, theory structure in biology, and ethics. He is the author of three books “The Structure of Biological Theories,” “The Moral Question,” and “Agro-Technology,” available in July from Cambridge University Press, and he is editor of Issues in Evolutionary Ethics. He has held numerous consulting positions with governments and industry. He is a member of the Research Integrity Committee and the standing committee on Ethics of the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, and is a member of The Expert Panel on Biodiversity sponsored by Council of Canadian Academies. He is a past president and a director of the Green Door Alliance Inc., a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving agricultural land. UA’s department of philosophy is part of UA’s College of Arts and Sciences, the University’s largest division and the largest liberal arts college in the state.

Many believe organic food is better. Many also believe genetically engineered foods pose greater risks to human health and the environment. Yet the scientific consensus is just the opposite. Why is it so widely ignored?
