>>Take a look at that young woman from GA who lost both her hands and one foot to a flesh eating bacterial infection. She was young, healthy and physically fit and yet, and ironically BTW given she was injured and became infected while doing something (swimming/zip lining) that most people who are not fit and overall healthy, probably wouldn’t be doing, she would have died had it not been for antibiotics. <<
Did it ever cross your mind that when you eat genetically modified foods you will also have genetically modified bacterias that your auto immune system hasn’t the slightest idea how to fight?
Monsanto and their “God, Move Over” stance” is not something I admire.

There is no evidence what so ever that GMO foods are the cause of antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria, and BTW, we humans have been genetically modifying foods; plants and animals ever since we very long ago figured out how to cross breed strains; if you don’t think the so called “heritage” seeds so prized by the “organic” “whole food” and “natural” crowd, didn’t come from previously “genetically modified” strains via cross breeding and forced and guided “natural selection” over many years of farming and experimentation and some trial and error, you are really kidding yourself. If we today relied solely on the strains of grains and other food crops as they existed many millenniums ago, the reality is that most of our ancestors would have starve to death and a lot of us would not be alive today.
The overuse and misuse of antibiotics is a whole other topic for discussion but this has little if nothing to do with what happened to the gal from GA. The microbes that invaded her body are not the result of “franken-food” – they are in fact, while rate, are very ancient. Ironically Aimee Copeland was a big believer in “holistic and natural medicine” and initially refused pain medications due to her personal convictions, that was until the pain got so bad that she saw the need for non-holistic pain management like modern pharmaceutical pain relievers like painkillers like morphine and Fentanyl.
