Scientists from the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry have published a damning study for pesticide manufacturers It shows a correlation between parental exposure to toxic pesticides and an increased chance of offspring developing brain cancer. Specifically, parents exposed to the toxic stew up to 2 years before giving birth are more likely to see their offspring develop brain cancer. In fact, the chances double.
Researchers have found that in some biotech study cases meant to measure the safety of Round Up crops, the rat feed given to rats in both the control group AND the testing group was contaminated with the same GMOs and pesticides (and heavy metals). In other words, laboratory rodent feeds are highly contaminated with pesticides, toxic metals, PCBs, and GMOs.
In my ongoing exposure of Monsanto’s illegal and immoral tactics, I was excited to announce that a class action lawsuit against the company for false advertising was taken on by none other than T. Matthew Phillips. We reported on this lawsuit at Natural Society, when minimal mainstream media outlets would touch the subject.
You likely already ate some GM potato without knowing it. Over 400 acres worth of GM potatoes were sold in Midwestern grocery stores over the summer, and most of them went unlabeled as such. The second generation of J.R.
By Jonathan R. Latham, PhD | Independent Science News | August 31, 2015 By training, I am a plant biologist. In the early 1990s I was busy making genetically modified plants (often called GMOs for Genetically Modified Organisms) as part of the research that led to my PhD. Into these plants we were putting DNA […]
With GMO soy’s recent connections to a host of health issues, it would seem there could be no chart or graph, no tidbit of information that could make this single crop seem more undesirable – until you look at the changes in vegetable oil consumption starting around 1967. This is when soybean growers and food manufacturers lobbied heavily to grow a ‘cheap’ oil to sell to American consumers.
A new lawsuit is accusing the USDA of withholding critical information on the safety of GMO foods for the last 10 years.
The post Lawsuit Accuses Federal Government of Withholding Info on GMO Crops for 10 Years appeared first on The Anti-Media.
GM crops reportedly come with increasingly high costs and few benefits, and as a result, many farmers are refusing to plant them.
A 2015 study has shown that children exposed to pesticides used to grow GM soy suffer serious genetic damage. Does this mean that our children will suffer the same fate as those unfortunate enough to live near GM soy fields in Argentina?
Researchers from the National University of Río Cuarto, Cordoba (UNRC) compared children who lived close to a GM-soy growing area in Argentina to children who lived in another city in Cordoba that was not adjacent to GM soy fields.
In a groundbreaking new study published in the peer-reviewed journal Agricultural Sciences, researchers have found that when soy is genetically engineered, it disrupts the plant’s natural ability to control stress and even sparks the production of carcinogenic formaldehyde.
