In this 168th episode of the Live Healthy Be Well podcast, Jeffrey answers audience questions. In the first segement he discusses how many of the public policy decisions regarding GMOs are not based on science but more on the influence of industry on political appointments.

In the second segment, Jeffrey talks about his argument with Derric Nimmo, head of public health research at Oxitec, about the recent release of GM mosquitoes in several countries. Jeffrey ended up educating the Oxitec scientist about the lack of stringent research on the saliva of GM mosquitoes which could lead to devastating consequences for humans.
