Biotech Leader ‘Syngenta’ Charged Over Covering Up Animal Deaths from GM Corn

Pigs Won't Eat GMO Corn

...The Bt-toxin produced in GM plants, however, is thousands of times more concentrated than natural Bt spray, is designed to be more toxic, has properties of an allergen, and cannot be washed off the plant.

Moreover, studies confirm that even the less toxic natural spray can be harmful.  When dispersed by plane to kill gypsy moths in Washington and Vancouver, about 500 people reported allergy or flu-like symptoms.¹, ¹¹  The same symptoms are now reported by thousands of farm workers from handling Bt cotton throughout India.¹²

1. Bt corn has been dismissed as a possible cause of death.

Investigators from the Robert Koch Institute concluded that Bt 176 corn was not the cause of death; they suggested a common cause of animal death, chronic botulism, could be to blame.
