The quality of our food supply is deeply threatened by the combined and joint actions of government and specific industries. We’re partnering with allies to push for big changes to the food system to support optimal health. THE TOPLINE We’re excited to announce the unveiling of My Health Alliance, the brainchild of the Organic & […]
The EPA has denied a Citizen’s Petition asking the agency to regulate “inert” pesticide ingredients that can be just as toxic to humans and the environment as the active ingredient. Action Alert! The Petition, submitted by the Center for Food Safety, called on the EPA to do more to assess the risks of pesticides to […]
The government is making decisions about genome-edited food that prevent consumers from identifying it, exposing us to potential risks. Action Alert! Did you know that meat from a genome-edited (GE) cow could soon be in grocery stores, and it wouldn’t be distinguishable from other meat? That’s because it will likely not need to be labeled […]
The USDA and some organic certifiers have been looking the other way as genetically engineered (GE) vaccines make their way into US organic production.

We debated GMOs for years, why aren’t we debating the latest bioengineering tech: mRNA? Action Alert! Are you ready for the total transformation of our food supply? There are dozens of veterinary vaccines (and human vaccines, for that matter) in production utilizing the new mRNA technology that underpinned the COVID vaccines. This new technology is entering […]
From Ron Hoffman, MD Is fructose the demon-spawn? Let’s cut through the confusion . . . There’s long been a symbiosis between humans and fruit. Ancient fruit provided sustenance to humans—not that the fruit cared. Its evolutionary impetus to be sweet and attractive was to entice paleo humans to consume it, and then spread its […]
From Moms Across America Throughout human history, insects have been part of the human diet in some cultures. Insects can provide protein, vitamins, and can be prepared like mammal meats. In some cultures this is tradition, in some scenarios this is survival. If you enjoy fried crickets or roasted ants, we are not judging you. […]
A new rule will close a loophole that allows fraud in meat labeling. It needs our support. Action Alert! Many of us look for the “Product of USA” sticker on the meat we buy in the supermarket, but we may not be aware that, for years, the USDA has allowed meat raised outside the US […]
