It is the mandate of the USDA’s own National Organic Program to protect organic farmers, producers, manufacturers, suppliers, etc from attack and contamination from all sorts of big business and genetically modified influences.  Even so under NOP director Barbara Robinson’s watch, Martek Biosciences synthetic DHA

Cornucopia Institute and the National Alliance for Breastfeeding Advocacy have filed a petition with the FDA to revise the labeling for infant formula containing these modified omega 3 and omega 6 oils.

The manufactured ingredients can cause diarrhea, vomiting and severe stomach pain in babies.
