Whoever Dr Dickbag is he's clearly making a lot of money from branding his own name and associating it with a fear campaign. No I havn't, and don't intend to watch his spam video, but just reading this one paragraph it's pretty clear that it's a load of crap targeted at low IQ people.
- EDIT: I think you are the perfect example of a low IQ person.
Firstly; eating fresh produce, particularly organically grown fresh produce is a healthy thing to do - that is a no-brainer. Associating propoganda with well-know truths is a normal strategy for producing it.

Wrong. You don't know anything about propaganda, the proof is you are on the wrong side of it right now. Every farmer in America thinks they're going to burn in hell for farming GMOs. They are all sick and immune to antibiotics, and are in $500,000 dollars of loan debt.
I couldn't even be bothered going into a complete discussion of all the propoganda I assume this guy is peddling to line his pockets but here's a few of the problems with this one moronic paragraph:
Humans are GMOs (AKA evolution). The ethical debate over whether or not we should interfere with this process is an interesting one, but ascribing a set of magical properties (i.e. they "cause cancer and leaky gut") to everything that has been in any way affected by humans is ludicras, childish and really really DUMB.
- Wrong. The only studies every done on GMOs have proven problems with cholesterol synthesis, infertility and insulin regulation problems in animals. There are zero human studies on how humans interact with these specific GM foods that are OBVIOUSLY carelessly designed by humans for one purpose: to produce more crops.
No foods are sprayed with Glyphosate. If they were they would die not grow, DUH! It's a broad spectrum herbicide (pretty much kills every plant it touches). This is so DUMB its hillarious. It is so widely used specifically because it is non-poisonous to most animal life, breaks down very quickly after use and does not leave a residue.
There are concerns with glyphosate - it is quite toxic to frogs, which is bad. I am not advocating thoughtless use of glyphosate or any other chemical in the environment, however lets get our facts right.... it is far less toxic to humans than say your washing powder, or a heaps of other chemicals we all commonly have in our homes, and there is ZERO glyphosate residue left by even the most industrialised produce production.
- Wrong. The very purpose of GMOs is to be able to tolerate the glyphosate pesticde ROUND-UP by Monsanto. They are the ones that produce the glyposates and the GM seeds.
They own 96% of every crop in America. 26 Countries have banned our products because of this. And from a financial standpoint: that is an AMAZINGLY high number.
"Eating a non-organic strawberry is LITERALLY more cancerous than smoking a pack of cigarettes" there is so much wrong with this sentance I couldn't even be bothered. Really. Ridiculous.
- Wrong. If you were educated on cigarette smoking, you would know that the mechanism of how cigarette smoke reacts within the body is unknown. There are no human tests on it. We know that it hurts mice's lungs, but they are extremely differant than human lungs.
All that is known is that cigarette smoking causes vitamin c defiency. This is huge because cancer is a metabolic disorder ( the immune system ), and Vitamin C is the most important nutrient to fight cancer, prevent it, and treat it.
"An organic strawberry has 28x more vitamins and minerals than a GMO strawberry"
WOW! That's a good one. Try these:
A big strawberry is heavier than a little strawberry.....
A 200 pound pumpkincontains 1000% more nutriants than a small strawberry grown in poor soil.....
My piece of string is longer than your piece of string.....
HOW MUCH AM I GETTING PAID FOR THIS 6 MINUTE MORNING TV APPEARANCE?
- Wrong. It's common knowledge that GM strawberries are x3 bigger.
