Os produtos de biotecnologia são aprovados como Halal de acordo com a Jurisprudência Islâmica, alimentos derivados da biotecnologia de cultura melhorada (OGM) são Halal e liberados para consumo por muçulmanos.

São os alimentos produzidos sem a utilização de agrotóxicos e que não tenham sofrido alteração genética com uso de elementos ilicitos proibidos pela jurisprudencia islâmica (OGM). Um alimento orgânico Halal beneficia uma cadeia integralmente lícita.

Halal conception is used in every single part of life .We use that conception for issues about food and industrialized products.

Sharia establishes that issues related to halal and haram shall be subordinated to the Holly Koraan and to the Sunna (Allah’s tradition and orientation).

Everyday we feed ourselves with products that are hiddden in names of difficult interpretation . We shall ask the producers the real composition of the foods, as well the descrimination of their source. Among those foods there are biscuits, cheeses, can food, candies, etc. that can have ilegal ingredients, since ingredients of suine origin till human hair, insects, alcohool, etc.

There are products that for consumers eyes are considered allowed. That is a serious mistake as a halal product can be contaminated by a haram product, due to the utilized ingredients. In our vision, every food and every industrialized products are considered Mashbooh (doubtful) till we can prove their origin and process and call them halal or haram.

The mechanisms that form halal system involve since the productive chain till the final result and follow basic requirements, such as the conscient administration of earth and environment, wich includ the use of legal agrotoxin, the treatment of effluents, functional hygiene, equipments, processing with halal products, storage, etc.

Those demands give everybody a great positive impact: the consumers get healthier food and the producers get more clients with a bigger potential of acquisition.

O consumidor deve estar atento aos produtos certificados que tenha em sua embalagem o selo halal de garantia. Deve informar-se se tal instituição existe e se é reconhecida mundialmente para evitar fraudes.

Consumers shall be careful to the certified products that have in their package the halal stamp of guarantee. They shall get informations about the institutions existance and if they are worldly recognized, in order to avoid deceptions. Halal certified and the stamp of guarantee of a credibility institution will make easy the life of the muslim consumer and offer a guarantee in accordance of products rellated to the Islamic jurisdiction.

Is the title above strange for you? There is no mistake, it is real. A team of American doctors announced on April 16, 2008 the discover of a new neurological disease that causes inflammation in the nerves, violent pain and hardness of movements.Extremaly rare, the disease seems to reach just people that work in the suine brain removal and that work without any kind of protection.

Some authorities assert that the bacterian infection is attaching suine creations.Government ordered the slaughter of cattle and the meat sales restriction in the area.

An outbreak of feverish disease has already caused 19 deaths in the cities of Ziyang and Neijiang, in the province of Sichuan, in China. The oficial diagnosis is that we are in the presence of a boom of Streptococcus suine, that is an endemical microbe that lives in areas of suine creation. Besides infecting animals most of the times, the human contamination eventually happens.

Most of the orientations about food, nutrition and health approach the use of tabacco. The tabacco and its derivates are harmful to health and kill about 5 millions of people every year, all over the world and about 200 thousands just in Brazil (PAN AMERICAN HEALTH ORGANIZATION, 2002).

So, there are no more reasons to consider the approach of tabacco, cigar and derivates just as a behavior option or a life style. Nowadays the tabaccoism is largely recognized as a cronical disease caused by the nicotine dependence and it is also classified in the International Diseases Classification (CID-10) of World Organization of Health. The tobaccoism is continuously displaying the tabacco consumers to about 4700 toxicant substances, being 60 of them cancerous for human being (WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION, 1999c).

The consumption of alcohol is not recommended due to social and nutricional reasons.
