What do you know about GMO's??

How much do you know about GMO's?? That is Genetically Modified Foods.

You would be amazed how many things you eat every day have ingredients that are genetically modified.

What is Genetically Modified Foods? What does it mean?? They are foods derived from genetically modified organisms. (Seeds/Animals that people have genetically modified the DNA of). Basically humans modifying the DNA by genetic engineering. It is a mutation of the organisms, cross breeding of plants and animals. This is being done to plants like soybeans, corn, rice, canola, beets, and many others. It is also done to the animals we eat; pigs, cows, chickens. And never mind that these animals are also being fed grains and feeds that are genetically modified.

Several studies and incidents have come up that show that GM foods are associated with such things as accelerated aging, immune disease, insulin problems (diabetes), organ damage, and reproductive disruption.

An example of this is:

Female rats feeding on GM soy experienced a drastically higher rate of infant death. Plus their babies that did live were smaller and less fertile then the ones feeding on non-GM soy. Male rats feeding on GM soy had their testicles change color from pink (normal) to blue. (no jokes here). There was also damage to the DNA of the sperm and embryos.

Fertility problems such as infertility, premature delivery, prolapsed uteri, infant death, and even birth to unformed babies has been observed in other farm animals feeding on GM feed.

Thousands of animals have died from eating GM crops used to produce pesticide Bt (which by the way has been approved for human consumption in the United States). (What is Bt or Becillus Thuringiensis. Is a pesticide used to kill moths, butterflied, caterpillars, and black surface plants.) After autopsies were done on the animals black spots were found in their livers and intestines, internal bleeding and other signs of Bt poisoning.

Is this something we really want to be putting in our bodies?? Feeding our children?? GMO's are found in a lot of our every day things.. like sugar... Check out the labels my friends!
