The Rules
Posts must be:

My mom has like "chemophobia" is is constantly afraid medications or "GMO". Well looks like she got this part right tho, she was always afraid of a non stick stuff chipping off and hate any "non stick" cookware. Broken clock, twice a day, ya know.
Sometimes worse side effects than the thing it's trying to cure. Sometimes used to cure something that better diet and more exercise could take care of. Made by companies more concerned with money than your health outcomes. What's to be afraid of?
Nothing wrong with GMO itself, but every company using GMO doesn't use it to make food higher quality or taste better. They use it to engineer pesticides into your food, increase crop yields, and patent our seeds, for, you guessed it, money! Insecticides specifically can be neurotoxic to humans. What's to be afraid of?
Maybe you should listen to your mom instead of badmouthing her to strangers on the Internet.
So like advice like "antidepressants are bad and it's all in your head"? 🤔
Ha, probably not that advice.
