We are, quite literally, poisoning our kids. Action Alert! Testing of children’s breakfast cereals from the Environmental Working Group (EWG) has found that major brands, such as General Mills’ Cheerios and Honey Nut Cheerios, are contaminated with high levels of glyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto/Bayer’s Roundup herbicide. These results provide more evidence to support […]
New analysis shows the agency willfully ignored evidence of glyphosate’s danger. Action Alert! A former executive director of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) board on agriculture has published an analysis comparing the World Health Organization’s (WHO) and the EPA’s evaluation of glyphosate. The WHO famously concluded that glyphosate was a probable carcinogen, while the […]
It’s official: the “mandatory” GMO labeling rule will obscure more than it makes transparent. Action Alert! The USDA has released its final GMO labeling rule, and it’s not good.

Pesticides in your Froot Loops is only one of the problems. The Kellogg Company recently announced it was pulling ads from a news agency it felt was “not aligned with our values as a company.” Fair enough. But this leads to an obvious question: the “values” the company says it is protecting—just what are they? […]
Not the government. Not most doctors. This is why we need to protect health coaches. Action Alert! The government’s advice is completely tainted by special interest influence, politics, and a refusal to admit mistakes. This was illustrated again by last week’s report from the Departments of Health and Human Services (HHS) and Agriculture (USDA), “Dietary […]
In contrast to other recent actions against supplement companies, this time it appears justified. Last week, the US Department of Justice, in conjunction with the Federal Trade Commission and the FDA, announced criminal indictments against a sports supplement manufacturer, USPLabs, as part of a nationwide sweep that included more than 100 supplement makers. The USPLabs […]
The industry-sponsored voluntary GMO labeling bill is heading for a floor vote in the House, and could be voted on any day now. URGENT Action Alert!

Mike Pompeo (R-KS) is expected […]
