Beverages with Fluoride
Fluoride has been known to be associated with have radiation development in the water supply. (Bukro, C., 1975).Fluoridated water is a known beverage to contain fluoride, but there are other drinks that contain just as must fluoride. Most beverages are also made of water which would make sense to why it also has fluoride. Tea also is a fluoridated drink. It has fluoride based pesticides in the teas leaves.

The three agencies are: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Environmental Protection Agency, and Food and Drug Administration (FDA).These agencies help to regulate GMOs for safety. A federal judge disputed that the FDA make their policies stricter toward the labeling of GMO products. (Pollack 2004).

In addition other foods that contain GMO is papayas, chrysanthemums, poplars, and spruce, tobacco, rice, cranberries, raspberries and walnuts, but these are not grown in the United States for human consumption.

It was founded that some of the test subjects developed severe kidney and liver damage. It was also damage to their pituitary gland and disruption in hormones. Large tumors and fatal incidence also have occurred while testing these subjects on modified products. In pigs the study found a heavier uterus in the female pigs and stomach inflammation among all pigs that were introduced to the modified group. Another fact that proves the dangers of genetically modified products is the subjects that are tested that are given GMO products to comparison to the subjects that are not. It was an experimental group of mice that were fed genetically modified food and showed abnormalities in their cells and the structures of their small intestines which proved damage to their small intestine. In the control group that was not introduced to the modified product they did not show any abnormalities. It is theorized that the toxin in the GMOs cannot be broken down in the digestive
