S5E20 The Truth About GMOs & How to Eat Around Corruption in Our Food System | Courtney Swan
We’re kicking things off with an impromptu hello and life update from Olivia — then diving into the nitty gritty with Courtney Swan, a real food activist who is on a mission to fix our broken food system. Today she’s answering the question: are GMOs safe for consumption? There are five genetically modified crops on the market that have become so abundant that they’re used in almost all packaged foods… knowing what they are and where they’re found is the key to learning how to eat your way around corruption in our food supply. In this episode, Courtney articulately breaks down the practices being used in agriculture today – clarifying ways we can be supporting farmers doing things right (and tangible ways to not fall victim to our current food system). HERE’S THE JUICE: What are the five genetically modified foods? WHY do we have such an overabundance of them on the market? What food lobbying is and why soda is more accessible on food stamps than produce How monocropping is negatively affecting farmers How food hybridization and genetically modifying our crops are not the same practice What the problem with corn is now, and why we are continually overfed and undernourished Why seed oils are in so many of our foods – creation from industrial waste products The best practices that you can adopt day-to-day to help decrease your consumption of seed oils and reduce inflammation Connect with Courtney: https://www.realfoodology.com/ IG & TikTok: @Realfoodology The Realfoodology Podcast: https://www.realfoodology.com/podcast Connect with Olivia: Organic Olivia Instagram Olivia’s Instagram TikTok Shop my full line of herbalist-formulated medicinal blends: HERE Mentioned Documentaries: Genetic Roulette (GMO documentary): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnhB99I86G8 Kiss the Ground (soil documentary): https://kissthegroundmovie.com/ Common Ground (regenerative farming doc): https://commongroundfilm.org/
