GM corn and soy cause damage to liver, kidneys, DNA, reproduction and blood according to new study
(NaturalNews) New research published in the Turkish Journal of Biology
completely shatters the myth that GMOs (genetically modified organisms)
have been scientifically vested as safe. Scientists from the National
Research Center in Egypt, after conducting what appears to be one of the
first histopathological and biochemical analysis of GMOs, determined
that diets containing GM corn and soy cause damage to vital and
reproductive organs, blood, DNA and various other systems of the body.
This
chronic toxicity study used Wistar albino rats as subjects, testing the
effects of GM corn and soy over time increments of 30, 60 and 90 days.
In each case, the transgenic materials were shown to have deleterious
effects on the rats, altering enzyme production and damaging their
genes. Increases in cellular damage were also observed, as were
increases in the ratios of DNA fragmentation, compared to a control
group of rats consuming verified non-GMO wheat feed.
The study
was initiated as a post-marking biosafety assessment, presumably in lieu
of the fact that such studies aren't mandated by the governments of
GMO-advocating countries like the U.S. If they were, the immense dangers
of GMOs would be publicly exposed, possibly resulting in a moratorium
or permanent ban on these hazardous products.
"The results of all
parameters evaluated in our investigation were consistent and confirm
that the GM diet fed to rats for 30, 60, or 90 days has deleterious
histopathological and histochemical impacts," reads the study's
abstract.
