It's even worse than being sprayed. It's being genetically modified to produce the toxins (pesticides).
Not one GMO crop has been modified for higher yield or gain. They have only been modified for getting rid of pests and weed control to ave on labor costs. It's a common misconception that they are being engineered to "feed the world".
Additionally, there have been very few studies of the effects of GMOs on humans. No one is studying whats actually happening to us while we serve as Monsantos guinea pigs eating up their safe poisons.
Can you support this claim?
Thanks for the info. After seeing how Monsanto has sued farmers who never bought their seed, but had fields that were inadvertently pollinated by their neighbor’s Monsanto crops, I promptly became anti-Monsanto and pro-small farmer.
Learning how it effects our bodies has made me an even stronger opponent to GMO foods. Your info has further steeled my reserve to try to keep corn and soy out of my kids’ diet. Is sweet corn also GMO or is it mainly feed corn?
Buying meat that has not been fed GMO corn or soy is not in the realm of possibility for me. My kids need to eat.
Yesterday I got test results back that show I have Graves Disease. Explains why I have felt so awful for so long. It is an autoimmune disease, my gut/immune system is out of whack. Obviously, there is no way of knowing whether a diet high in GMO foods affected me this way, but if it affects your gut then it could be a contributor.
“So, to be clear, eating GMO corn products can cause your gut (which is primarily responsible for keeping you healthy) to turn into a breeding ground for tiny little pesticide factories inside your body, actively creating toxins which are designed to kill living things. “
Garbage. The bT will not even harm a fly ...
Thanks for the info.
We aren’t the only ones eating the corn. The meat we eat probably has lots of crud in it.

This is deaths not diagnosis. I want to know how many are being diagnosed today. My brother, sister-in-law, and aunt have all had it and are not included. A discussion of the stats is here.

Environmentalists are not all wrong.
Um,where the heck did you get this info? Source?
The crops are NOT genetically modified to produce pesticides, they are genetically modified to be resistant to glycophospate. That way, when the glycoposhate is used, it only kill the weeds and leaves the crop alone.
Thank you.
