How to get genetically-modified food out of your diet An Activist’s Toolkit 怎样从您的饮食中消除转基因食品 行动主义者的工具包 How would you react if you discovered that most of the foods you ate every day contained hidden ingredients that could be slowly poisoning you? 如果您发现，您每天吃的大部分食物都在慢慢侵蚀着您的身体，您会作何反应？ Disbelief? Sadness? Fear? Anger? Retribution? All of the above? Well, surely the first thing you should do is: STOP EATING THEM! Genetically modified crops such as corn, canola and soy are being used in over 70% of the processed foods available in your local grocery store. So you might be forgiven for thinking that if genetically modified ingredients are so widespread, they must be safe to eat, right? Wrong. It’s just a shame the FDA and the corporate-controlled North American mainstream media persist in turning a blind eye. (See The Big GMO Cover-Up by Jeffrey M. Smith.) 怀疑？悲哀？恐惧？愤怒？还是报应？抑或百感交集？那么，您首先应该做的肯定是：停止食用！在许多杂货店，转基因作物，如玉米，油菜和大豆的使用量在食品加工过程中超过70%。所以，您可能自我安慰地想，既然转基因成分被应用的如此广泛，地它们必然是可安全食用的，对吗？您错了。说起来惭愧，其实是FDA和企业控制的北美主流媒体始终对此视而不见。 （详见杰弗里·M·史密斯的“转基因食品欲盖弥彰”） Of course, the last thing that the pro-GM food companies want is for consumers to get informed and use their immense power to force change in the marketplace. This has already happened in Europe where genetically modified ingredients have to be labeled by law. As a result, food companies don’t use genetically modified ingredients! However, in the absence of equivalent labeling requirements in the US or Canada, North American consumers have been left in the dark for over 13 years and are unwittingly taking place in a huge human feeding experiment. 当然，推动转基因食品的公司最不想做的事就是让消费者了解情况，并用其巨大的影响力迫使市场改变。欧洲就是个先例，含有转基因成分必须依法标注。结果是，食品公司不再使用转基因成分了！然而，在没有被要求标注的国家，像美国和加拿大，北美消费者被隐瞒真相长达13年之久，在不知不觉中成为了实验品。 We asked Jeffrey M. Smith, international bestselling author of Seeds of Deception and Genetic Roulette: The Documented Health Risks of Genetically Engineered Foods, to give us some practical steps on how to get GMOs out of our diet and off the face of
