We harness science & agroecology to advocate for clean food, consumer products & environment. OUR VISION

Clean food and environment. Food transparency.

OUR MISSION

GMO/Toxin Free USA’s mission is to harness independent science and agroecological concepts to advocate for clean and healthy food and ecological systems. We will educate consumers and other stakeholders about the potential hazards of genetically engineered organisms, synthetic pesticides and other toxins, and advance the application of the Precautionary Principle. As part of our mission, we aim to speak collectively to force food manufacturers to come clean with the ingredients they use in their products, and to remove untested and potentially harmful genetically modified organisms (GMOs), pesticides, and other synthetic chemicals. Food and environmental justice. To see a world where we have full disclosure of what is in the food we eat and how it is produced. To see a world whose food and ecological systems are clean, accessible to all, and fully protected from contamination by GMOs and other toxins. To see the private, governmental and public sectors follow the Precautionary Principle. "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." -- Margaret Mead

SYNGENTA's hormone-disrupting herbicide atrazine is contaminating nearly 25%, or about 860,000 miles, of all continental U.S. rivers at levels that can harm wildlife and may threaten human health, a new review of federal records has found. The waterways cover over 20% of surface drinking water intakes across the country, and over 675,000 private and commercial wells. Atrazine can have severe impacts on human and animal hormones, especially for developing children. It was found to “chemically castrate” frogs, and cause some to change sexes. The herbicide is so dangerous that it has been effectively banned in 60 countries, including the European Union, since 2003.

Despite being banned in the EU, China-owned, Switzerland-based Syngenta produces atrazine in the EU and exports it to the United States so that Americans can be poisoned for profit. This must stop.

Groundbreaking New Study: For decades, the debate over glyphosate’s health effects has largely played out through epidemiology, animal models, and cell-culture experiments. What has been missing is direct evidence of the herbicide sitting inside the human organs where hormone-driven cancers actually develop. A new cross-sectional study out of Semmelweis University and the Hungarian University of Agriculture and Life Sciences, published in Toxicology Reports, closes part of that gap — and the findings are hard to ignore. The results mark a genuine first: this is among the earliest studies to detect and quantify glyphosate directly in human endometrial tissue. Two findings stand out. First, glyphosate concentrations in endometrial tissue were consistently and significantly higher than in blood serum, across every group studied — cancer patients and healthy controls alike. In other words, the womb appears to hold onto glyphosate at levels blood tests alone would never reveal. Second, when the researchers isolated patients with high-grade endometrial cancer — the most aggressive and dangerous form — both their serum and tissue glyphosate levels were significantly elevated compared with the control group. Patients with low-grade cancer or precancerous lesions did not show the same statistically significant elevation, suggesting the association strengthens with tumor severity.

Warhound, the brainchild of Anduril’s co-founder Palmer Luckey and software entrepreneur Ben Lamm, “will produce genetically enhanced working dogs” domestically and equip them with advanced technology to ensure they have “battlefield situational awareness,” the new company said. Lamm’s company, Colossal Biosciences, works on species preservation, animal cloning and “de-extinction,” which it describes as “a functional application of advanced gene-editing technology aimed at rebuilding the DNA of lost megafauna”. The company claims to be in the process of the “de-extinction of the woolly mammoth.” Its technology will be used to clone and genetically edit working dogs, in an effort Lamm said would improve performance and was more humane for the animals, many of which currently fail to complete training. Anduril, a maker of autonomous drones, submarines and other military vehicles, and America’s most high-profile defense technology start-ups, will develop body armor and “cybernetics” to improve the performance of the dogs.

Babies may consume millions of microplastics and traces of harmful chemicals through infant formula, plastic bottles, and other feeding products: A disturbing new scientific review, published in Environmental Science and Pollution Research, examined 27 studies of these products published over the past decade. They show evidence of tiny plastic particles and endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), including phthalates, bisphenols, per-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS “forever chemicals”), and organophosphorus flame retardants (OPEs) and their byproducts.

Overall, the findings highlight an emerging problem with “profound” implications for public health, the authors say. “This review highlights the daily, unnoticed, and poorly regulated exposure to various chemical agents that occurs today,” they wrote. “The discovery of plastic particles in infant formula and baby bottles, even before their first use, raises ethical questions about the safety of products intended for this population.” The amounts may be tiny by weight, but these exposures may cause long-term health harms. Frequent formula consumption, especially where breastfeeding is limited, adds to worries about exposure.

Infants face unique risks from exposure to these compounds because their bodies are still developing and cannot process and eliminate most contaminants as efficiently as adults. Their nervous and hormonal systems are also more sensitive to disruptions in metabolism and hormone regulation.

The review describes two main routes of exposure: plastic particles released from plastic bottles, feeding utensils or packaging, and chemicals that migrate from food-contact materials into commercial formula.

Some of the biggest food and ag corporations in the U.S. are funding a campaign that pays social media influencers to combat elements of MAHA according to an investigation by the Guardian and Documented, an investigative watchdog and journalism project.

They call it GAHA: Growing a Healthier America. Documents show the coordinated effort is tracking MAHA closely and researching ways to respond to the movement’s claims without alienating its supporters. They are focused on several key areas: seed oils, pesticides, high-fructose corn syrup, regenerative agriculture, organic farming, raw milk/dairy and “big ag”, internal documents obtained by the Guardian and Documented show.

Should you come across any of those influencers, beware the industry paid propaganda and don't be fooled!

No, lab-grown eggs are not being sold in U.S. stores. But GMO lab-grown egg white protein products are. Unlabeled.

Some click-bait pages and influencers out there are spreading misinformation that there are lab-grown eggs being sold. There are no lab-grown whole eggs on the market. A genetically engineered, lab-created egg white protein branded as OvoPro, created by The EVERY Company, is what is on the market. It's in products being sold by Amazon, Target, and Walmart, and possibly bakeries are using it as well. The first consumer facing OvoPro product is Healthier Comforts’ Animal Free Egg White Protein Powder. There is a similar GMO egg white protein product called Bioalbumen created by the company Onego Bio. Bioalbumen is also already in products sold by Amazon, Target, and Walmart, including Zen Waffles’ high protein waffles.

Because the USDA deregulated newer forms of genetic engineering, including synthetic biology (synbio), neither OvoPro nor Bioalbumen are required to be labeled as “bioengineered.” They may appear under ingredient names “OvoPro” or “Bioalbumen” or as “recombinant ovalbumin” or “precision fermented egg white protein” depending on the manufacturer’s choice.

These novel ingredients entered the market with absolutely no long-term safety testing through the FDA's GRAS (generally recognized as safe) loophole. For those of you following food news over the last couple of months, NO, the FDA did NOT close the GRAS loophole as some pages and influencers recently announced. It was just more gaslighting by this administration. Nevertheless, we suggest avoiding this OvoPro stuff.

McDonald’s, Subway and Taco Bell are failing to keep pledges made a decade ago to reduce the use of antibiotics in their beef supply. Despite promises to reduce or eliminate the practice entirely, all three companies failed to meet their commitments on reducing antibiotic use, according to a report released by the Food Animal Concerns Trust (FACT), the Keep Antibiotics Working Coalition and US PIRG Education Fund. The alleged failed commitments pose a serious threat to public health, putting Americans at risk of antibiotic-resistant infections. “What we’re doing is abusing one of the foundations of modern medicine and making antibiotics ineffective,” said Andre Delattre, co-author of the report and chief operating officer of the Public Interest Network, the umbrella organization that PIRG operated under.

Of course, it's the taxpayer-subsidized conventional farming system, overcrowded and filthy factory farm CAFOs (concentrated animal feeding operations), that is driving the use of antibiotics in farmed animals. Our tax dollars go to prop up a system that produces the "cheap" meat that then goes into the "cheap" fast food. Not only is that fast food literally killing the people who consume too much of it, but the system of production is causing a crisis of antibiotic-resistant superbugs. At the end of the day, when you factor in the tax subsidies, and the toll of human disease and death, it's not really cheap, is it?

SIGN THE PETITION telling the EPA to stop relying on corporate junk science to justify re-approving glyphosate: tinyurl.com/GlyphosateReview2026

The EPA is working to finalize its registration review of glyphosate, which is due to conclude in October 2026. The agency has opened a public comment docket and stated, “This open literature search is intended to inform the hazard assessment for the upcoming updated glyphosate human health risk assessment. EPA is soliciting comments on the completeness of the Agency's open literature search results, and this notice opens a comment period on the open literature search.”

There are over 500 independent, peer-reviewed health-related glyphosate studies that the EPA must consider. Glyphosate—and the full-formula herbicides that contain it—has been linked to cancers affecting numerous organs, including leukemia and cancers of the skin, liver, thyroid, nervous system, o***y, mammary gland, adrenal glands, kidney, urinary bladder, bone, endocrine pancreas, uterus, and spleen. Increased incidences have been observed in both sexes, at exposure levels well below the EPA’s daily consumption tolerance levels. Glyphosate is also a patented antibiotic and chelator and has been found to be genotoxic, neurotoxic, an endocrine disruptor, and a developmental toxin. When the science points to this many serious health risks, the EPA must stop looking the other way and act to protect the public.

Make your voice heard! We've made it quick and easy to submit your comment directly to the EPA. Tell the EPA to stop cherry-picking corporate science and review ALL independent, peer-reviewed studies. Submit your comment today and demand the science-based action the American people deserve.
