What, precisely,do these compounds do to the bugs in our guts? Where are the long term,multigenerational studies of these genetically modified ingredients?

Interesting post ... studies are showing the GMO inserted toxins ending up in blood samples:

GM firms claimed toxins were destroyed in the gut

Toxins implanted into GM food crops to kill pests are reaching the bloodstreams of women and unborn babies, alarming research has revealed.

A landmark study found 93 per cent of blood samples taken from pregnant women and 80 per cent from umbilical cords tested positive for traces of the chemicals. link

It’s the natural things out in the world that will get you

I think I would rather eat a bowl of GMO Wheaties than some Hepatitis A infected “organic” berries.

This may be lost on you, but, Paracelsus, the father of toxicology made the observation in the 15th century, that the dose makes the poison. In short, background concentrations of poisons saturate the environment we live in. Examples: carbon monoxide in the air we breath, aflatoxin in the grain we eat and the milk we drink, cyanide containing compounds in many plants we consume, and so goes the endless list. We live in a toxic world. CO is found your blood, so is cyanide. See how it works? There is a threshold that must be reached to induce adverse effects from poisons all around us.
