This really creeps me out. Pregnant people, avoid all corn and soy, period. No sodas, no packaged or fast food.
GM ??/General Mills???
Which is why I'll only eat Ford food.
Of course they would say that. They have no bias whatsoever on this issue.... /s
What is the toxin?
The difference between something benign or benefitial, is the doseage. Too much water will kill. Other toxins, are generally harmless to humans, like DDT. You can eat that stuff (tastes nasty, but non-lethal).
What about born babies?
Everything you eat is subject to genetic modification.
Do you eat anything that is the byproduct of selective breeding in animal husbandry? That organically raised meat has been genetically modified via selective breeding.
And all your organic veggies and grains... those have been selectively bred through hybridization, which by its very definition is genetic modification.
So - the only way to avoid any contact with genetically modified food is to die.
No agenda here, I see.

This obviously smells like inadequate testing. How could our green liberals have possibly let something like this pass right under their noses?
The second most popular GM trait is a built-in pesticide. The plant produces pesticidal toxins in every cell. Monarch butterflies are often killed when feeding on corn. If a plant kills bugs, should we really be breathing its pollen, eating honey made from its nectar, or ingesting the plant?
Virtualy an entire Filipino village of about 100 people living next to a large field of GM corn were stricken with a disease. The symptoms, which appeared at the time the corn was producing pollen, included headaches, dizziness, extreme stomach pain, vomiting, chest pains, fever, and allergies as well as resirator and skin problems. Many have remained ill to this day. 96 got sick and several died. Also, 9 horses, 4 water buffalo, and 37 chickens died soon after eating the GM corn.
Lab animals tested with GM foods had stunted growth, impaired immune systems, bleeding stomachs, abnormal and potentially precancerous cell growth in the intestines, impaired bloog cell development, misshapen cell structures in the liver pancreas and other places, liver and kidney lesions, partially atorphied livers, inflamed kidneys, less developed brains, reduced digestive enzymes, high blood sugar, inflamed lugh tissue, increased death rates, and higher ofspring mortality.
Soy allergies skyrocketed by 50% in the UK soon after GM soy was introduced.
Genetically altered soy, corn, cotton, and canola and their derivatives are found in 70% of all processed foods.
Toxins in GM food?
There are no ‘toxins’. That’s why they were ‘Genetically Modified’ to avoid any toxins from pesticides!
How does modifying a gene create toxins?
Just because a thing can be detected does not mean that the amount detected is significant.

What no one ever says in any of these “science” articles is that many vegetable toxins are actually beneficial to humans. Many of the anti-oxidants touted by health gurus are actually toxins that plants produce to discourage insects from consuming the plant.
Caffeen being probably the most frequently consumed by humans is an insecticide produced by the coffee and cocoa plant to discourage the consumption of their seeds.
Tannins produced by grapes are insecticides meant to discourage their consumption yet these same chemicals we are told prevent cancer.
But the scare mongers are always prepared to tell us every new step down the path of progress is a step closer to our doom.
I think that the human body is much more resilient than these would be scientist believe. Come up with some real evidence that these chemical cause harm to humans in the amounts found or shut up. I don’t want some study on mice being fed 10,000 % more than any human could ever consume and then developing cancer leading a banned process.
The number one cause of death is birth. Statistically, with two historical exceptions and 7 billion pending cases, birth has a 100% mortality rate.
Birth has already happened to me; I’m doomed, and not a thing I can do about it.
Therefore:
I refuse to spend any amount of time worrying about how my cheezy mac is gonna kill me.
Looks like it’s not just the senior citizens that are going to be eliminated in this country. Now all food is going to be taken away from us by the government since it may make us sick. They’re going to have that budget balanced sooner than we thought.
The vast majority (99%+) of pesticides consumed by humans are naturally occurring in foods. Eating organic stuff is thus no better than not.
