MORE ABOUT NEW SHOCK FINDINGS IN GMO STUDY
Spread the word: GMOs are toxic!
Eating genetically modified corn (GM corn) and
consuming trace levels of Monsanto’s Roundup
chemical fertilizer caused rats to develop horrifying tumors,
widespread organ damage, and premature death. That’s the
conclusion of a shocking new study that looked at the longterm
effects of consuming Monsanto’s genetically modified
corn.
The study has been deemed “the most thorough
research ever published into the health effects of
GM food crops and the herbicide Roundup on rats.” News
of the horrifying findings is spreading like wildfire across
the internet, with even the mainstream media seemingly in
shock over the photos of rats with multiple grotesque tumors...
tumors so large the rats even had difficulty breathing
in some cases. GMOs may be the new thalidomide.
It reported, “Scientists found that rats exposed to
even the smallest amounts, developed mammary
tumors and severe liver and kidney damage as early as four
months in males, and seven months for females.”
The Daily Mail reported, “Fresh row over GM
foods as French study claims rats fed the controversial
crops suffered tumors.” (link)
It goes on to say: “The animals on the GM diet suffered
mammary tumors, as well as severe liver and
kidney damage. The researchers said 50 percent of males and
70 percent of females died prematurely, compared with only
30 percent and 20 percent in the control group.”
The study, led by Gilles-Eric Seralini of the University
of Caen, was the first ever study to examine
the long-term (lifetime) effects of eating GMOs. You
may find yourself thinking it is absolutely astonishing that
no such studies were ever conducted before GM corn was
approved for widespread use by the USDA and FDA, but
such is the power of corporate lobbying and corporate greed.
The study was published in The Food & Chemical
Toxicology Journal and was just presented at
a news conference in London.
