Mr. Stossel, I heard Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly interview about your program.  I have no issue with you on what you said about healthcare and seniors even though I will soon turn 62.  I DO have issue with you regarding irradiating our food.  I try to eat VERY good so that I don't have to visit doctors and hospitals with all their drugs and surgeries and surgeries and drugs.  I have learned that we can be free of many problems by having a healthy immune system.  A healthy immune system is strengthened by the food  with all their complement of minerals, vitamins, enzymes, etc.  By ruining or weakening our food with irradiation and GMOs, our opportunity to live in health is compromised. Before you start promoting such things, I urge you to do your homework.  For example, the ecoli that has been in spinach, etc comes from cattle upstream.   If you question that (do your homework), then I feel I still have a good chance of beating ecoli with probiotics.  My mother got C Diff in her independent living, had diarrhea really, really bad.  She was put on antibiotics which didn't help much but once I started giving her the probiotics (friendly bacteria), the diarrhea went away.  When asked by a nurse to stop giving to her, diarrhea came back.  When I started regiving to her, it went away. 

In short, I don't want to spend a penny or an hour I don't have to at doctor's offices or hospitals.  I have found a way to be healthy.  But if you and others start messing with our food supply, then you take away my and my husband's opportunity.   Do the homework!  Check out drmcdougall.com, hacres.com, drfuhrman.com, foodnsport.com, paulnison.com.  There are so many out there, your homework will be easy.
