  Just Say No To GMOs

  Dear Aaron,
  
  You are right about the humantics foundation site. Hard to know what is what. I used them as an example but would have been better off using another one. Try this one : a html COPY of the original Court document signed by Judge Fromholz (http://www.bolenreport.net/archives/california_superior_court_judge_.htm).
  
  Now, as your hope (or maybe this is not the appropriate word although it's certainly the one I would use to express my opinion) that any major health organizations pick up their recommendation, it would be of a great surprise that it happens. Unless these health organizations are solidly established and have nothig to lose, mainly from the govenmental authorities standpoint, it just wont happen. The one I could see doing such a thing is PCRM (www.pcrm.org).  
  
  Regards,
  
  Jef
  
  
  

  The National Health Information Center (NHIC) cannot obviously endorse everything from every organization. However, NHIC can position themselves as a health information referral service, which is exactly what they claim to be. "NHIC puts health professionals and consumers who have health questions in touch with those organizations that are best able to provide answers. NHIC also provides key support for the healthfinder.gov Web site, your gateway to reliable consumer health information." (http://www.health.gov/nhic/).

  Just Say No To GMOs

  Although Stephen Barrett (operator of quackwatch) reports with pride his own achievements (http://www.quackwatch.org/10Bio/bio.html), he is probably the best known de-licensed MD, and was already called biased and unworthy of credibility by a US judge. If you want to learn more about Barrett, see this (http://www.humanticsfoundation.com/quackwatchwatch.htm), or google "credibility Stephen Barrett", you'll find more than enough.
  
  In the meantime, AAEM has been known by the Ameriocna government's Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services as a reliable and credible source of information : http://www.health.gov/nhic/NHICScripts/Entry.cfm?HRCode=HR1988
  
  I myself looked into AAEM's credibility and was glad to find it was a serious organozation. Much more than any of Barrett's initiatives.
