A long time feeding study commissioned by the Austrian Agency for Health and Food Safety, managed by the Austrian Federal Ministry of Health and Youth, confirms genetically modified (GM) corn seriously affects reproductive health in mice. The GM corn was a product of the US-based Monsanto Corp. Additionally, significant litter size and pup weight decreases were found in the third and fourth litters in these GM fed mice, compared to the control group.
This is not the first demonstration of the dangers of GM foods, but it was the controlled nature of the study that makes the negative results impossible to ignore by world health authorities.
Consumer advocates are calling for a ban on all GM foods and GM crops. About 75% of the foods we purchase in American super markets are genetically modified. The most dangerous GM food will be sugar from the GM sugar beet to be introduced before 2009.
Monsanto has launched us into a genetic disaster scenario. European nations have been rejecting GM foods since their inception in spite of intense lobbying by Monsanto. It’s time we did the same.
I’ve been warning you about this threat for years. It’s not nice to mess with Mother Nature and we are creating a Nation of children with allergy/sensitivity and ill health.
