Genetically modified organism

And again, if you're on thyroid meds, you need to just time your intake properly.

Now, another question I had about GMO.

But GMO.

First of all, again, as we know, soy and breast cancer research does not show that tofu or other soy foods increase breast cancer.

In fact, it lowers your risk.

Okay, what about GMO? There's no credible evidence that shows that eating approved GMO soy increases cancer risk.

And here's the thing I want you to understand.

Most GMO soy is fed to animals.

So I, of course, spend lots of time speaking with conventional agriculture, conventional farmers, people that work in and believe in and support that space.

And The big change that I see happening now is that it's become okay for large-scale GMO conventional farmers to question whether Cortiva, Bayer, BASF, Syngenta, the fertilizer industry really, quote, unquote, have their backs.

I think up until a few years ago, you'd be hard pressed at a meeting of conventional farmers to find too many farmers that would openly question whether these large agribusinesses have really been working to assure a viable future for them.

But boy, I'll tell you now, there's a lot of people that are skeptical.

I mean, you know, it's not uncommon now for corn, soybean, cotton farmers to spend over $100 an acre on herbicides when 20 years ago they were spending maybe $20.

Well, that's a big change, especially when you realize they're also spending three or four times more for seed.

So when you look at what has undermined the economic sustainability of corn, soybean, cotton, large-scale GMO farmers, it's what they're spending on seed and pesticides has gone up probably tripled over 1996 when the ag biotech revolution happened.

Now, the other changes in soil health and other problems have just added more fuel on the fire.
