- EU lawmakers seem poised to push plants created using “new genomic techniques” (NGTs or GMOs in disguise) onto European shelves by watering down long-standing protections, ably assisted by biotech corporates—including plans to scrap labels, risk assessments and traceability rules that help consumers and farmers know what they’re buying and growing. Negotiators are also moving towards allowing patents on gene-edited seeds, opening the door to corporate monopolies and further eroding seed sovereignty. As political pressure mounts, many once-firm safeguards are being quietly erased, raising urgent questions about who truly benefits from this rush to deregulate.
- A key paper, once the cornerstone of the assessment of glyphosate’s ‘safety’, published in Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology in 2000, has been retracted. The paper has been routinely used to shut down debate around safety concerns since its publication. In retracting it, the Journal said “it’s no longer credible” following a recent historical review of the paper highlighting the problems associated with a ghostwritten industry study. The retraction comes as Bayer continues efforts to secure legal immunity from further prosecutions in the US by people harmed by glyphosate. James Lyons Weiler PhD has the detail.
- Tensions are rising over vaccine regulation after the head of the US Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Center for Biologics Evaluation, Vinay Prasad, sent a memo to staff informing them that the deaths of 10 children have been linked to covid vaccines. That same memo also stated the FDA would be making sweeping changes to official vaccine policy. The news has prompted 12 former FDA commissioners to warn in the New England Journal of Medicine that public trust and scientific integrity are at risk. Dismissing the experts questioning current vaccine policy and safety claims, they argue that sidelining ‘expert’ advisers, rewriting long-standing rules, and limiting open review could undermine both vaccine safety and public confidence as the FDA’s stance opens a divisive topic up for scrutiny by all interested partices, not just those prepared to protect the conventional narrative.
- Neonicotinoid pesticides, the world’s most widely used insecticides, have been found to consistently impair male reproductive health in rodents, reducing sperm count, motility and quality. A new review, published in Pesquisa Ambiental, focusing on rats and mice, raises concerns about potential impacts on humans due to the shared biology of mammalian reproductive systems, especially given widespread environmental and biomonitoring evidence of neonicotinoid exposure. The findings highlight the very real risks posed by the use of neonicotinoid pesticides not just to insects, but mammals and humans also. US Right to Know takes a deep dive into the issue.
- A growing body of research suggests that the modern world we’ve built may be quietly undermining the biology that built us. From artificial light and traffic noise to polluted air and microplastics, today’s urban environments bear little resemblance to the natural settings humans evolved to thrive in—and the mismatch may be draining everything from our fertility to our resilience. A new review, published in Biological Reviews, asks a provocative question: has industrialisation pushed the human body beyond its evolutionary comfort zone?

- Too much screen time may be reshaping children’s brains—and not for the better according to a new study published in Translational Psychiatry. Tracking nearly 12,000 kids over two years, researchers found that heavier screen use predicted more severe ADHD symptoms and slower development in key brain regions linked to attention, impulse control and learning. The findings add weight to growing concerns that today’s digital environment may be outpacing children’s capacity to adapt, highlighting the urgent need to rethink how screens are used in childhood.

- Um novo estudo, publicado na revista International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health, from the Environmental Working Group has found that eating certain fruits and vegetables—particularly those with higher pesticide residues like strawberries, spinach and peppers—can significantly increase levels of harmful pesticides in the body. Researchers linked people’s diets directly to the pesticide biomarkers found in their urine, raising fresh concerns about everyday exposure to chemicals associated with cancer, hormone disruption and reproductive harm. The findings highlight the need for stronger monitoring and regulation, especially for children and pregnant women who are most vulnerable and reinforces the benefits of eating organic produce wherever possible or sticking to the ‘Clean Fifteen’ non-organic fruits and veg.

- The medical world’s obsession with reducing cholesterol levels continues unabated, despite many people suffering debilitating adverse reactions to drug therapy including the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). A new Italian study published in Cardiovascular Diabetology, finds that the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), so called ‘bad’ cholesterol, is directly linked to an increased risk of developing T2D, whether you’re taking statins or not. The study highlights once again the problems associated with the focus on lowering cholesterol levels at all costs, rather than prioritising dietary and lifestyle changes that focus on improving metabolic health overall.

Atualização da ANH-USA
- To celebrate Thanksgiving in the U.S. last week, the team shared an article to remind Americans of the true meaning of Thanksgiving, which lies in family and community celebrating together. However, all is not rosy as the quality of the food, soil and our social bonds have changed dramatically leading to Americans becoming the one of the sickest industrialised nations. Leia mais...
Free Speech Threats
- Online doors are starting to close to those unwilling or unable to verify their identity as governments around the world bring in draconian restrictions under the guise of ‘protecting children’. In the US the Subcommittee on Commerce, Manufacturing and Trade has been discussing a package of draft bills under the label of “Kids Online Safety Package”. Although the Committee gave assurances that the proposed bills consider free speech, it became evident that they’re gearing up to make the bills withstand legal challenges and potentially stomp all over free speech rights. The session ended without agreement but whether Americans agree or not it seems free online speech could soon become a distant memory.
- In Australia, people could soon find themselves having to verify their age every time they want to use search engines such as Google and Bing. Australian politicians have expressed serious concerns due the lack of oversight from Parliament and public input. As from December 10 children in Australia, under the age of 16, will have their social media accounts shut down in one of the most restrictive online policies globally. However, it seems that teens are already taking matters into their own hands to circumvent the ban and stay connected online. Concerns have been raised though that the government is entering a game of ‘whack-a-mole’, which risks driving youths into even more dangerous areas of the internet.
Post-covid related
- A newly published perspective in the Medical Research Archives raises important concerns about the long-term health effects of covid mRNA vaccines, suggesting that vaccine-derived spike protein may persist in the body and contribute to inflammation, immune disruption and other symptoms often attributed solely to covid infection. The authors argue that vaccination and infection together may create overlapping or ‘hybrid’ harms, potentially helping to explain the continued waves of illness, excess mortality and post-covid symptoms seen in highly vaccinated countries. They call for urgent, independent research to fully investigate these mechanisms, reassess the impacts of repeated mRNA exposure, and ensure future public health strategies prioritise safety, transparency and informed choice.
- Covid vaccine mRNA has been detected in the blood, placenta and semen of some subjects tested as part of a new study published in Annals of Case Reports, after more than 200 days following vaccination.
- Um estudo recente, publicado na Autoimunidade, using real-world data from Italy suggests that common statistical methods may have overestimated the safety and effectiveness of covid vaccines. Researchers highlight a “case-counting window bias,” where deaths and adverse events occurring shortly after vaccination are misclassified as happening to the unvaccinated, creating an illusion of lower mortality in vaccinated groups. The findings call for a re-examination of past vaccine studies and suggest that early post-vaccination risks may have been systematically underreported, with important implications for public health policy.
