Carefully formulated legume capsules reject corporate tampering
Safe and natural fiber supplements from legumes may be the easiest, cheapest, safest and most effective route to digestive health. Bold claim? Read on in this blog and consider our absolute conviction that carefully crafted nutrient capsules from good old beans should be on your “everyday” shelf for the rest of your long and healthy life.
In this post, we first want to emphasize one thing our legume products are not. They have never been formulated with a whiff of genetically modified ingredients, which we believe are insidious byproducts of modern engineering that don’t belong in your body.
Have you focused much on the controversy about genetically modified organisms? You should. It’s fantastic science, and not in a good way. Scientists, in the pay of large corporations and in pursuit of ever more profits, are actually tinkering with genetic codes to create new organisms that (they say) might grow bigger, be more disease-resistant or perhaps provide more of some certain nutrient. These artificially mutated strands of DNA then stand to be reproduced into a permanent new species, and we see the result primarily as millions of acres of GMO crops used to produce foodstuffs. These products are already on our store shelves and likely in your cupboard, and it’s frankly scary.
There are a lot of reasons to object to this proliferation of fabricated food. For one, these newfangled nutrients don’t deliver on their promise of feeding the world and are amounting to an economic disaster. Browse some of the links we’ve provided, especially http://www.saynotogmos.org/, and you’ll see that, in fact, GMO crops such as soy beans (which have been a favorite subject of genetic tinkerers) actually require more pesticides and produce lower yields than conventional crops. GMO’s are uncontrollable in their drift to neighboring crops and have infiltrated into organic crops such as rape seed in Canada with disastrous results. GMO crops are vastly expensive to create, have been forced on farmers by unscrupulous corporations who “know better,” and have supplanted more effective ways of meeting our global food crisis.
But at KCCures, our primary objection to GMO’s is that they are unnatural and dangerous. Genetic modification is a crude and imprecise way of incorporating foreign genetic material (e.g. from viruses, bacteria) into crops, with unpredictable consequences. In 1998, Scottish scientists found damage in every single internal organ in rats fed blight-resistant GMO potatoes. Only one study has been published on the effects of GMO in human consumption, and the surprise result was noticeable impact to gut bacteria. Based in part on this finding, GMO products are now banned in the UK and most European countries!
Which brings us to KCCures legume products (Le-Gume, Flav-Ein and Crohn’s Relief). The very core of our approach is to provide pure, natural fiber from nature’s best source—to enhance the health of the gut especially, and your whole body by extension. And we will never use GMO beans as our basic ingredient. It means a great deal to us to put the fact right on our bottle, so we take pains to source our legumes from resolutely non-GMO farmers. We seek out the healthiest, purest beans we can find, process them in a unique way that preserves nutrients, and are proud to offer a taste and odor-free capsule which we believe is the finest dietary fiber supplement available.
There’s more to tell you about our legume products, including their use as a safe, reliable baseline for some prestigious medical studies. Thanks for visiting our blog, and check back occasionally, as well as to our website.
