Let's talk about GMO foods and identify some foods you may not have realized are actually GMO.

Some food manufacturing companies are putting a new term on their labels, "bioengineered food ingredients."

The definition of bioengineered food ingredients:
"Food that contains detectable genetic material that has been modified through certain lab techniques that cannot be created through conventional breeding or found in nature."

Certain companies were concerned that their products would be labeled as GMO and that people would avoid them. So, they decided to develop a new term, "bioengineered food ingredients," and gave it branding to make it appear healthy.

"Bioengineered food ingredients" is essentially another name for GMO. But, this new term now allows companies to bypass the GMO labeling problem they were having.

On top of that, once a product has been highly processed, the traces of GMO become undetectable, and the company no longer has to add the label stating it contains bioengineered food ingredients.

They also don't necessarily have to use the term "bioengineered food ingredients." Instead, they can use a QR code or a number to text or call to get more information.

Unexpected GMO foods (unless labeled as organic):
1. Yellow squash
2. Beets
3. Papaya
4. Eggplant
5. Green zucchini
6. Certain apples
7. Salmon (unless labeled as "wild-caught")

I recently was informed that I'm no longer a diabetic. My A1C went from 8.2 to 5.4 following your keto suggestion. Thanks a million! I'm feeling great.

I am from Africa. I buy more than 70% of what we eat from African shop.
In my country, all foodstuffs, fruits are organic. Started reading about this gmo and stuff on foreign tabloids before I travelled abroad.
The foodstuffs are expensive but I have peace of mind. Sometime when we travel, we get the dried ones. I remembered when they came to preach gmo in the northern part of my country. They produce mostly what we eat and export. It was never accepted. They still plant traditionally most of the time. There is so much diff from onions, garlic, ginger etc back there in my country and what I use here. Huge diff.

Amazing, my wife was making cinnamon rolls for the grandkids and I read the exact same label. I've never noticed that before. I'm getting good at detecting fake foods based on the labels.

[jamedraa]

This is why I want to start a container gardening club. So we can use the space we have to grow and share organic produce.

Morning Doc!! Thanks for all you do! I've been preaching to my Mom about you and she finally started watching your video and researching things now! 😁

[antonettedennisor]

I wish I had a backyard or somewhere to grow my own foods. Thank you for educating us every day Dr Berg 🙏🏿

I live in Albania. GMO's are not to be found here, unless you eat imported garbage.

[lovenature]

I don't think there's anything safe out there for us to eat 😢. It's scary what we are putting in our bodies. Thanks for all the work you put in for us Dr Berg.

Hey Dr. Berg, you know what relaxes me, is watching your videos. Not only the information you put out into the world of Youtube, but your entire demeanor, the grace, and kindness of your mannerisms: the way you speak, the way you carry yourself, and the way your genuineness shines through like a ray of sunlight. I watch many of your videos but I have never commented before so I felt it was time to pass on to you how much I truly appreciate you and your wonderful channel. Thank you for reading.

In the process of purchasing a rural property in Virginia where we will build a greenhouse to grow organic vegetables and another small area for chickens, to have fresh eggs. The lack of nutrients in the soil is shocking. Think it’s time to regain control over these things. Thank you for your good advice and leadership in health awareness.

[noirerock]

hi, doc! i hope you would make a video about affordable healthy breakfast, lunch, and dinner ideas too. thanks!

[kurrwa]

It's scary how hard it is to find actual food. On the front label no artificial flavors. When you read the list of nutrients, you will find the natural flavors list is going and going

I have Gastroparesis and reoccurring SIBO along with a host of Immune disorders.
Eating organic and non GMO foods is a MUST for my survival. If I eat something not organic and is GMO my body can detect it immediately!
My husband and I just purchased 40 acres to start our own organic an non GMO orchard and garden so I can eat healthy without fear of being contaminated.

Beets you find at the grocery, and GMO sugar beets are two different plants. Sugar beets are large and white, obviously have a high sugar content, and only go into sugar manufacturing.

Thanks Dr Berg for this video. I’ve recently found your channel searching for ACV and have been watching your videos and changing the way I eat. This video really opened my eyes and this past weekend we just purchased yellow squash, zucchini and beets along with other vegetables that we already consumed. Now that I know these are modified I plan to only buy organic. Thanks for all you do!

[verobullock]

Wow another informative video. Thank you doc .this one has me they are finding all sorts of ways to conceal things of importance. 🤔
