Shock findings in new GMO study: Rats fed lifetime of GM corn grow horrifying tumors, 70% of females die early
(NaturalNews) Eating genetically modified corn (GM corn) and consuming trace levels of Monsanto's Roundup chemical fertilizer caused rats to develop horrifying tumors, widespread organ damage, and premature death. That's the conclusion of a shocking new study that looked at the long-term effects of consuming Monsanto's genetically modified corn.
The study has been deemed "the most thorough research ever published into the health effects of GM food crops and the herbicide Roundup on rats." News of the horrifying findings is spreading like wildfire across the internet, with even the mainstream media seemingly in shock over the photos of rats with multiple grotesque tumors... tumors so large the rats even had difficulty breathing in some cases. GMOs may be the new thalidomide.
"Monsanto Roundup weedkiller and GM maize implicated in 'shocking' new cancer study" wrote The Grocery, a popular UK publication. (http://www.thegrocer.co.uk/topics/technology-and-supply-chain/monsant...)
It reported, "Scientists found that rats exposed to even the smallest amounts, developed mammary tumors and severe liver and kidney damage as early as four months in males, and seven months for females."
The Daily Mail reported, "Fresh row over GM foods as French study claims rats fed the controversial crops suffered tumors." (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2205509/Fresh-fears-GM...)
It goes on to say: "The animals on the GM diet suffered mammary tumors, as well as severe liver and kidney damage. The researchers said 50 percent of males and 70 percent of females died prematurely, compared with only 30 percent and 20 percent in the control group."

The study, led by Gilles-Eric Seralini of the University of Caen, was the first ever study to examine the long-term (lifetime) effects of eating GMOs. You may find yourself thinking it is absolutely astonishing that no such studies were ever conducted before GM corn was approved for widespread use by the USDA and FDA, but such is the power of corporate lobbying and corporate greed.
The study was published in The Food & Chemical Toxicology Journal and was just presented at a news conference in London.

Findings from the study
Here are some of the shocking findings from the study:
• Up to 50% of males and 70% of females suffered premature death.
• Rats that drank trace amounts of Roundup (at levels legally allowed in the water supply) had a 200% to 300% increase in large tumors.
• Rats fed GM corn and traces of Roundup suffered severe organ damage including liver damage and kidney damage.
• The study fed these rats NK603, the Monsanto variety of GM corn that's grown across North America and widely fed to animals and humans. This is the same corn that's in your corn-based breakfast cereal, corn tortillas and corn snack chips.
The Daily Mail is reporting on some of the reaction to the findings:
France's Jose Bove, vice-chairman of the European Parliament's commission for agriculture and known as a fierce opponent of GM, called for an immediate suspension of all EU cultivation and import authorisations of GM crops. 'This study finally shows we are right and that it is urgent to quickly review all GMO evaluation processes,' he said in a statement. 'National and European food security agencies must carry out new studies financed by public funding to guarantee healthy food for European consumers.' (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2205509/Fresh-fears-GM...)
Read the study abstract
The study is entitled, "A Comparison of the Effects of Three GM Corn Varieties on Mammalian Health." Read the abstract here:
http://www.biolsci.org/v05p0706.htm
That abstract include this text. Note: "hepatorenal toxicity" means toxic to the liver.
Our analysis clearly reveals for the 3 GMOs new side effects linked with GM maize consumption, which were sex- and often dose-dependent. Effects were mostly associated with the kidney and liver, the dietary detoxifying organs, although different between the 3 GMOs. Other effects were also noticed in the heart, adrenal glands, spleen and haematopoietic system. We conclude that these data highlight signs of hepatorenal toxicity, possibly due to the new pesticides specific to each GM corn. In addition, unintended direct or indirect metabolic consequences of the genetic modification cannot be excluded.
Here are some quotes from the researchers:
"This research shows an extraordinary number of tumors developing earlier and more aggressively - particularly in female animals. I am shocked by the extreme negative health impacts." - Dr Michael Antoniou, molecular biologist, King's College London.
"We can expect that the consumption of GM maize and the herbicide Roundup, impacts seriously on human health." - Dr Antoniou.
"This is the first time that a long-term animal feeding trial has examined the impact of feeding GM corn or the herbicide Roundup, or a combination of both and the results are extremely serious. In the male rats, there was liver and kidney disorders, including tumors and even more worryingly, in the female rats, there were mammary tumors at a level which is extremely concerning; up to 80 percent of the female rats had mammary tumors by the end of the trial." - Patrick Holden, Director, Sustainable Food Trust.

The problem is folks you don't know were they put this shit, think about it you eat corn every day,.

Sooo, drinking roundup causes cancer? Good to know. Seriously though, this is why I eat organic. There are studies that show no difference, but then a study like this comes out.

Apparently according to American government holding anti-GMO discussions may indicate you are a terrorist ::)
Welcome to the NAZI world of America of today. Imagine the wonderful tomorrow. ::)
Look even regular americans are starting to believe you must be a terrorist, extremist or racist if you are anti-GMO ::) :

Yeah, not sure about what "roundup ready" etc is.

You'd be hard-pressed to not eat GM foods of any variety presently. Without GM crops, the world hunger problem would be much worse but in contrast, at least we'd know what we are eating. Less than 1% of Americans produce enough food to feed the US and export much more because of these GM crops; whether they are good for you long term is debatable ???
'Round up ready' (RR for short) cultivars are modified gene crops so you can broadcast spray the chemical round up (broad spectrum herbicide) on them to kill the weeds but it doesn't affect the crop. RR crops are the most identifiable GM crops but there's thousands more.
I guess I'm the only one here who grew up around agriculture??

Fuck off asshole and take your slimey opinion with you. How long have you been on their payroll.
1. Don't give a fuck about world hunger at the moment. I care about what AMERICANS are ingesting and the damage is has or will cause.
2. It's not debateable. It's fact.
Can't believe your defending these pieces of shit.

I'm not defending them at all but your food prices would be 30% or more of your income (if you actually had a jobBand weren't living off the taxpayers) without GM crops. No debating that, it's a fact. Even more probably with the bullshit ethanol mandates. I agree we have no idea what we're putting in our bodies though. I wish I was on their payroll but I dont do ag crops.

A sensible voice of reason in a thread of paranoid foil hat wearers.
You can't neglect the good GM has done and can do for produce especially in an increasingly populous world.
Don't blindly write them off as frankenstein horror foods.
Investigate the technology thouroughly, educate the average joe(or getbigger) and implement them in non-forceful way on the masses.

EU have banned GMO crop. Monsanto must takes Americans for fools for allowing their wicked experiments on the population.
I think Monsanto is also pushing for a ban on labeling GMO foods as GMO, if it didn't pass already.

The correlation between genetically modified corn and cancer has yet to be properly made.
This actual study was presented by Gilles-Eric Seralini in the Food and Chemical Toxicology journal and while his findings would suggest that their might be a correlation, what he failed to mention was that his criteria for selecting subjects was heavily biased.
For instance, during this study they chose to use the Harlan Sprague-Dawley strain of rat. Unfortunately, for those who are not too familiar with this breed of rat, they are actually heavily predisposed to getting cancer over their lifetime. The studies show that well over 70% of males and 87% of females from this strain reportedly get cancer during their lifetime, whether they have been fed GM corn or not. So it shouldn't be a surprise that so many of Seralini’s rats were found with cancer.
Aside from that, there were other elements to his study that were flawed.

That said, I am NOT a fan of MONSATO.
I do not like to buy crops which have been genetically modified and impregnated with pesticide forming chemicals and preservatives.
I also do not believe that they should be allowed to have such a blatant monopoly over the farm industry.
