2015-05-22

EU-kommissionen har godkänt användningen av 17 genetiskt modifierade sorter av majs, soja, raps och bomull. De får användas till livsmedel och till foder. Godkännandet gäller import och bearbetning, men inte odling.



Produkterna tål vissa ogräsmedel eller insektsangrepp. Några av produkterna har bägge egenskaperna inbyggda. Flera av produkterna har ett tidigare godkännande, som nu har förlängts.

Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup®, is the most popular herbicide used worldwide....

Consequences are most of the diseases and conditions associated with a Western diet, which include gastrointestinal disorders, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, depression, autism, infertility, cancer and Alzheimer’s disease. We explain the documented effects of glyphosate and its ability to induce disease, and we show that glyphosate is the “textbook example” of exogenous semiotic entropy: the disruption of homeostasis by environmental toxins.

--------
A long-term study conducted on rats showed remarkable pathologies that became apparent only after the three-month period that is usually allotted for toxicity trials. In this experiment, rats were monitored over their entire lifespan, while being fed either genetically modified (GM) or non-GM maize that had been optionally treated with Roundup®. The rats that were chronically exposed to Roundup® developed several pathologies over the course of their lifespan, including large mammary tumors in the females and gastrointestinal, liver and kidney pathologies, especially in the males. The males developed both skin and liver carcinomas. Premature death in the treated male rats was mostly due to severe hepatorenal insufficiencies. Other researchers have shown that oral exposure to glyphosate in drinking water can induce DNA damage to mouse cells drawn from blood and liver...



It is now well established that autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with dysbiosis in the gut....
An increase in short chain fatty acids and ammonia in the gut has been found in association with autism...

The results of the study presented here clearly indicate that lower levels of complete agricultural G herbicide formulations, at concentrations well below officially set safety limits, can induce severe hormone-dependent mammary, hepatic, and kidney disturbances.
