okay, like mercury’s not bad enough, but what about gmo’s, folks? isn’t that reason enough to stay away from one of the top gmo crops, corn?

What baby formula does NOT contain HFCS? My daughter lost her milk supply (stress-related) and must feed her baby with formula. At 4 months, the baby is in the 96% for weight at almost 18 pounds. She is very concerned. Any help?

How is brown rice syrup made? Is there any chance this may also contain mercury? Is brown rice syrup made in the U.S.? It is in products I’ve bought at the health food store, but i am just wondering if it is safe. My son is autistic. When he was first diagnosed I read so much online about mercury being a cause of autisim, so we no longer eat HFCS after reading about it containing mercury.

Very well posted. I would like to add, concerning the comment that said that HFCS did not contain mercury, it’s not a bad thing to avoid anyway, Don’t get me wrong, I love corn in it’s natural state but it’s everywhere. Any animal in these united states is fed corn whether or not it is it’s natural diet or not (guess what, not) which causes the big business’ running the cattle and poultry farms to stoop to hormones and antibiotics to keep their animals from getting sick because they are not giving them the proper feed, which in turn hurts our health. Then there’s big agriculture making a huge profit from all the farms growing corn and not cultivating more species of plants and necessary biodiversity that will be lost forever if all we ever grow is corn. Not to mention biofuels that take more energy than they produce to get them to market. Then there’s childhood obesity, I wonder where that comes from, could it be corn syrup? There are many reasons to avoid the stuff in many forms to send the message, stop the monopoly on corn. We choose health.
