What is glyphosate? Please see the “prequel” to this video, Are GMOs Safe? The Case of Roundup Ready Soy (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/are-gmos-safe-the-case-of-roundup-ready-soy). Before that I covered GMO corn: Are GMOs Safe? The Case of Bt Corn (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/are-gmos-safe-the-case-of-bt-corn). It’s the dose that makes the poison, though. Do we have evidence that the levels of Roundup chemicals not only found on crops but also in our bodies after eating those crops actually have adverse effects? That’s the subject of the final installment of this video series, GMO Soy and Breast Cancer. Commercial interests can have a corrupting effect on the science of nutrition and hold sway over institutions that are supposed to operate in the public interest. See for example: • Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Conflicts of Interest (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/academy-of-nutrition-and-dietetics-conflicts-of-interest/) • Seeing Red No. 3: Coloring to Dye For (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/seeing-red-no-3-coloring-to-dye-for/) • The McGovern Report (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-mcgovern-report/) • Dietary Guidelines: Advisory Committee Conflicts of Interest (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/dietary-guidelines-advisory-committee-conflicts-of-interest/) • Food Industry “Funding Effect” (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/food-industry-funding-effect/) Have a question for Dr. Greger about this video?
