This is just a theory, but its based on someone I know personally who used to consume canola oil as a health product in the 70s. It practically destroyed her immune system and still suffers from a weakened immune system today.

If bees consume pollen from vast fields of canola, don’t they suffer the side affects as well? (reduced immune system)?

If so, won’t they be more susceptible to disease?

So the culprit is a combination of:
1. Too many industrial size farms of specific plants(canola, or other) toxic to bees
2. An opportunistic disease(or any combination) that takes advantage of a weakened immune system

Has anyone looked into the possibility of pollen of GMO plants (corn, soy, wheat, cotton) being consumed by bees or bee exposure to the pollen as a contributer to this problem? I was watching a documentary called “The future of food” and one of the scientists whose research has been squelched by Montsano (corporate giant who has patented seeds and creates GMO food/pesticides/Round-up)conducted some research where the result was that 40% of the Monarch Butterfly catepillers who ate GMO pollen died after becoming butterflies for unknown reasons which was considered a significant death rate and linked to the pollen.

Monsanto has destroyed God’s DNA design in food and has injected pesticides. The bees take in the mutated pollen and their guts explode. They fall where they rupture. Monsanto makes suicide seeds. These are seeds that produce plants with seeds that do not reproduce, forcing farmers to go back to Monsanto year after year for seeds. Greedy Monsanto.

Einstein had a theory that if all the bees in the world disappeared, then it would only take 4 years for all other life to follow. This isn’t a good sign.
