Where will this G.M.O takeover lead us?
Current News
In current news G.M.O affects digestion in humans-this being backed by the "Alliance for natural health US"; the supposed proteins in G.M.O's can still be present in the human system even after eliminating consumption of such products. Some cases with GE soy in the US and UK have been linked to the 50% rise in allergies; some scare in Bt corn also may have led to 80% of the chemical pesticide traces in pregnant women's umbilical cords and 93% of the same chemicals in unborn babies which linked to these studies.
Another study mentioned is the cancer in rats linked to GMO testing. The rats had many ailments,quote Natural News, "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", what could this say on long term effects on humans? Here on the bottom is some of the tumors that had led to the tumors by consumption of Monsanto's Bt corn and traces of Roundup that's legally allowed in the water supply. Can the study on these rats reflect some possible consequences to human health?
Another claim of GMO supporters in the lessening of pesticide use on commercial produce in discussion Huff Post Carey Gilliam says,"Genetically engineered crops have led to an increase in overall pesticide use, by 404 million pounds from the time they were introduced in 1996 through 2011, according to the report by Charles Benbrook, a research professor at the Center for Sustaining Agriculture and Natural Resources at Washington State University".
Now do numbers seem to be dwindling for pesticide use? It seems that the use GMO may kept the use of pesticide large despite the slight drop in insecticide use. Although the drop of insecticide it cannot cover up the rise of pesticide.
