You lose.

Anyone citing naturalnews for any-fucking-thing loses the right to participate in an attempted scientific conversation.

We all should have knows that the OP was a disciple of The Health Ranger. They've now confirmed it.

The OP made no such claim. The OP only asked a question. n/t pnwmom Mar 2015 #99

The OP is asking for proof of a negative. jeff47 Mar 2015 #100

Can you point to a single study in answer to his question? Don't you think it would be a good idea pnwmom Mar 2015 #102

Considering there is no study of epigenetic effects of nutrition jeff47 Mar 2015 #105

To the contrary, there have been multiple studies of epigenetic effects of nutrition. pnwmom Mar 2015 #108

Except that study doesn't say what you think it does. jeff47 Mar 2015 #111

The researchers disagree with you. They don't think it's a simple function of fewer calories leading pnwmom Mar 2015 #118

He also uses the term "pesticide" incorrectly GreatGazoo Mar 2015 #175

THIS THREAD IS FULL OF LOSE !!1!! elehhhhna Mar 2015 #177

You could be right, Blue_In_AK Mar 2015 #92

If the label was "glyphosate resistant", I wouldn't mind. jeff47 Mar 2015 #97

I think we've found a point of agreement. Blue_In_AK Mar 2015 #113

I'd like a label that says, "fertilized with cow shit" Major Nikon Mar 2015 #125

K&R immoderate Mar 2015 #77

My question for GMO defenders has also been met with complete silence. cheapdate Mar 2015 #83

I agree that you believe in your stated opinion. Liberal Veteran Mar 2015 #87

I'll rephrase the question. cheapdate Mar 2015 #153

Answers jeff47 Mar 2015 #89

The subject was limited to crops that have been genetically engineered cheapdate Mar 2015 #182

And I provided a more complete answer. jeff47 Mar 2015 #189

Equating selective breeding with modern genetic engineering is not a valid proposition. cheapdate Mar 2015 #233

No problem Major Nikon Mar 2015 #98

You ask a good question, since research has shown the epigenetic effects of nutrition. pnwmom Mar 2015 #103

Thank you SoLeftIAmRight Mar 2015 #107

What make you think GMO would be any different than any other food in this regard? Major Nikon Mar 2015 #110

What makes you think genetically modified food would be the same? pnwmom Mar 2015 #134

I asked you first Major Nikon Mar 2015 #136

It has been modified -- in different ways, depending on the food. Therefore it is not the same. pnwmom Mar 2015 #137

So you really think all the produce you eat has never been modified? Major Nikon Mar 2015 #141

No, I don't think that. In fact, I know it's not true because most corn, for example, pnwmom Mar 2015 #160

"there's no way to avoid it, if I wanted to" Major Nikon Mar 2015 #161

Are you not aware that the GMO producers have been fighting for the right pnwmom Mar 2015 #163

So this means you are unable to get non-GMO foods today? Major Nikon Mar 2015 #164

It means that the millions of people who can't afford more expensive organic foods pnwmom Mar 2015 #172

None of this matters regarding your assertion Major Nikon Mar 2015 #178

It has been modified before but not genetically modified to withstand large doses of pesticides. n/t pnwmom Mar 2015 #179

Food was routinely doused in all sorts of pesticides long before GMOs came along Major Nikon Mar 2015 #180

And now it's being doused in even more. Overall pesticide use is up pnwmom Mar 2015 #181

Wrong Major Nikon Mar 2015 #187

Wouldn't the difference be between something that naturally occurs in nature Rex Mar 2015 #143

Gene transfer also happens in nature Major Nikon Mar 2015 #152
