Recent health studies provide growing evidence of harm from GMOs

Part of my reasons for blogging is to educate on health and wellness matters. My passion for health began as a child and seems to have never slowed. Sadly, some of the information I grew to know early on was based on fad and deception by trusted health educators, but with time and with much effort in researching, the truth is finally coming to a head. Genuine lasting health is not derived from man and his limited understanding of creation by manipulating elements in labs, but by getting down to the rudimentary and using what God has already given us.

Below is an article on GMO's aka genetically modified organisms. Most of the population has little understanding of GMO's and how they affect our health. We live in a world of perpetual sicknes, infertility and lowered IQ. If people would truly look at the "man behind the curtain" so-to-speak, I believe they would see clearly the reasons for man's demise. Between vaccination, GMO's, malnutrition, and toxic environmental exposures our cell structure is being erroded one generation at a time. Allowing yourself to become educated can help spare you and your family from being victims and hopefully empowerment to change the system from the grassroots up.  ~ Alice

Genetically modified foods……..Are they safe?

The American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM) doesn’t think so. The Academy reported that “Several animal studies indicate serious health risks associated with GM food,” including infertility, immune problems, accelerated aging, faulty insulin regulation, and changes in major organs and the gastrointestinal system. The AAEM asked physicians to advise patients to avoid GM foods.
Before the FDA decided to allow GMOs into food without labeling, FDA scientists had repeatedly warned that GM foods can create unpredictable, hard-to-detect side effects, including allergies, toxins, new diseases, and nutritional problems. They urged long-term safety studies, but were ignored.

Since then, findings include:

Thousands of sheep, buffalo, and goats in India died after grazing on Bt cotton plants
Mice eating GM corn for the long term had fewer, and smaller, babies
More than half the babies of mother rats fed GM soy died within three weeks, and were smaller
Testicle cells of mice and rats on a GM soy change significantly
By the third generation, most GM soy-fed hamsters lost the ability to have babies
Rodents fed GM corn and soy showed immune system responses and signs of toxicity
Cooked GM soy contains as much as 7-times the amount of a known soy allergen
Soy allergies skyrocketed by 50% in the UK, soon after GM soy was introduced
The stomach lining of rats fed GM potatoes showed excessive cell growth, a condition that may lead to cancer.
Studies showed organ lesions, altered liver and pancreas cells, changed enzyme levels, etc.
Unlike safety evaluations for drugs, there are no human clinical trials of GM foods. The only published human feeding experiment revealed that the genetic material inserted into GM soy transfers into bacteria living inside our intestines and continues to function. This means that long after we stop eating GM foods, we may still have their GM proteins produced continuously inside us. This could mean:

If the antibiotic gene inserted into most GM crops were to transfer, it could create super diseases, resistant to antibiotics
If the gene that creates Bt-toxin in GM corn were to transfer, it might turn our intestinal bacteria into living pesticide factories.
Although no studies have evaluated if antibiotic or Bt-toxin genes transfer, that is one of the key problems. The safety assessments are too superficial to even identify most of the potential dangers from GMOs. See our Health Risks brochure and State of the Science report for more details and citations.
