Enviropig-Standardizing GMO Pig Breeds
Enviropig: Standardizing GMO Pig Breed
The Enviropig™ was developed using specific gene sequences from mouse and e coli DNA, which were further modified to work in a pig. In combination, the genetic code would trigger the production of a digestive enzyme (secreted into the saliva) not found in domesticated hogs.
The genetic material was inserted into a fertilized pig embryo via microinjection. In turn, the embryo was surgically implanted into the reproductive tract of a sow, and born about four months later. When mature, the genetically modified pig was crossed with a conventional pig, and about half of the offspring exhibited the new, stable, modified gene. The Enviropig is now in its eighth generation.

Apparently the pig is not working out…but the GMO salmon seems likely.
Michigan DNR destroys heritage hogs: Small-farm heritage hogs have now been declared an “invasive species” in Michigan. This order allows the Michigan DNR to raid family farms with the
intent to seize and destroy their heritage hog livestock without
compensation. Since swine raised in large confinement operations will be
exempt, this will effectively eliminate or reduce any competition. The
Michigan Pork Producers Association is the co-sponsor of this state order.

It is also to be noted that the FDA approved the drug Ractopamine for poultry, beef & swine in 1999. It converts feed into lean muscle. It is banned in 160 countries. And unfortunately if you eat Agri-business poultry, beef and swine, you are getting that which 160 countries have banned (for a good reason). And most egregious the “natural Thyroid” most organic and natural foods consumer take if they have a hypothryroid problem like Hashimoto’s disease is source from pigs being fed Ractopamine.

EPA Approves Exemption for GMO Bt toxin in soy foods and feed & FDA & Ractopamine feed
Final rule Feb. 12, 2014: “In what could easily be classified as one of the US Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) worst decisions yet, a final rule released by the EPA earlier this month creates an exemption for residue tolerance levels of genetically modified (GM) Bt toxin in GM soy foods and feed.1 Essentially, the Agency has approved unlimited residues of GM Bt toxin in your food!”
In 2011, doctors at Sherbrooke University Hospital in Quebec found Bt-toxin in the blood of:
- 93 percent of pregnant women tested
- 80 percent of umbilical blood in their babies
- 67 percent of non-pregnant women
GM corn is present in the vast majority of all processed foods and drinks in the form of high fructose corn syrup, corn oil, and other corn products. They also suggested that the toxin may have come from eating meat from animals fed Bt corn, which most livestock raised in concentrated animal feeding operations. (CAFOS)
These shocking results also raise the frightening possibility that eating Bt corn might actually turn your intestinal flora into a sort of “living pesticide factory,” essentially manufacturing Bt toxin from within your digestive system on a continuing basis through the transference of the Bt-producing gene to your gut bacteria.

VLA Comment: In1999 the FDA approved the use of the drug Ractopamine in the feed of poultry, beef and swine. Ractopamine is banned in over 160 countries. So add that to the meat your are eating and the “natural” thyroid pill you are taking. Moreover, China purchased Smithfield, the USA’s largest swine producer. Read more…
Taipei: Workers carry US beef with traces of ractopamine to a furnace in downtown Taipei yesterday. A total of 7,490kg of beef was destroyed. The Democratic Progressive Party ((DPP) reaffirmed its zero-tolerance policy on the controversial animal feed additive ractopamine with a statement and an amendment proposing that local governments be given more power to regulate food safety.
GMO VACCINES – APPROVED BY USDA FOR ORGANIC LIVESTOCK
At present, the National List identifies all vaccines, as a group, as synthetic substances allowed for use in organic livestock production. Vaccines are not individually listed on the National List, but rather are included on as a group of synthetic substances termed “Biologics Vaccines,” that may be used in organic livestock production (7 CFR §205.603(a)(4)).

Banned in 160 Nations… Yet U.S. FDA Regards it as Safe?
A livestock drug banned in 160 nations and responsible for hyperactivity, muscle breakdown and 10 percent mortality in pigs has been approved by the FDA in 1999, Ractopamine is also known to affect the human cardiovascular system, and is thought to be responsible for hyperactivity. It may also cause chromosomal abnormalities and behavioral changes “…seeking information about the effects of ractopamine on “target animal or human liver form and function, kidney form and function, thyroid form and function” as well as urethral and prostate effects and “tumor development.” The lawsuit says the CFS has “exhausted administrative remedies” and that the FDA has “unlawfully withheld” the materials.”
A livestock drug banned in 160 nations and responsible for hyperactivity, muscle breakdown and 10 percent mortality in pigs has been approved by the FDA. Yet, in the United States 45 percent of pigs, 30 percent of ration-fed cattle, and an unknown percentage of turkeys are pumped full of this drug in the days leading up to slaughter.Adding insult to injury, up to 20 percent of ractopamine remains in the meat you buy from the supermarket, according to veterinarian Michael W. Fox. Yet this drug is marked “Not for use in humans,” and is known to increase death and disability in livestock. Read more…
