Cod Liver Oil – Brands Containing Soy
Last week I posted my brand comparison of cod liver oil (CLO). In this comparison I listed three dozen types of liquid and softgel cod liver oils, and compared the cost per serving of each of them. I compared the cost of CLO to the more superior fermented cod liver oil (FCLO) and concluded the liquid FCLO is less expensive than all but two of the liquid brands. We also discovered there are brands of CLO with 0 IU’s of Vitamin D.
However, as I mentioned, quality was not taken into account in my cost analysis. Who uses synthetic vitamins? Natural? Which brands contain soy?
This post addresses which brands contain soy. But first, let’s take a quick peek into why we don’t want soy in our CLO.
Reasons to Avoid Soy
Soybean oil is the main active ingredient used in Bayer’s “natural” pesticide – and we want to consume this?

Obama administration to approve drought-resistant GM corn that USDA says grows no better than natural corn

Top Five Ways to Avoid GMOs in Your Food
1.) Buy Locally Produced Food
For now, GMOs are only used by large multinational corporations who buy direct from large farms. Produce from local mom and pop farmers have yet to become genetically modified. Purchasing locally grown food supports your local farmers and your health. Not to worry about GMO tomatoes and potatoes as they have all been pulled from the market. Read the full post here →

Hormones In Food: Should You Worry? Part 1
A salmon that grows to market size twice as fast as normal. Dairy cows that produce 15 percent more milk. Beef cows that grow 20 percent faster.
What do these hyper-productive animals have in common? Thanks to injections and implants (in the case of cows) or genetic engineering (in the case of salmon), they contain artificially high levels of sex or growth hormones. Read the full post here →

USDA approves mass planting of GM rice made with human genes
Originally published March 9 2007 SDA approves mass planting of GM rice made with human genes
by David Gutierrez
(NewsTarget) For the first time, the USDA has given preliminary approval for large-scale planting of a genetically engineered food crop containing human genes. The rice grains, produced by California-based Ventria Bioscience, synthesize a human immune protein. The public comment period for this decision lasts until March 30, after which the decision will be finalized.

What you need to know – Conventional View
• The USDA has tentatively approved a petition by Ventria to plant up to 3,200 acres of the modified rice in Geary County, Kan. If the approval stands, Ventria will begin by planting 450 acres this spring.
• Previously, Ventria had sought to grow the rice in Missouri, but the plan was abandoned when Anheuser-Busch Companies Inc. threatened to boycott all rice from the state. Anheuser-Busch, a beer maker, is the country’s foremost buyer of rice. Read the full post here →
