GM corn lowers fertility in mice
Vienna - Feeding mice with genetically engineered maize developed by the US-based Monsanto corporation led to lower fertility and body weight, according to a study conducted by the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna presented Tuesday. In the study, mice fed with the NK603 x MON810 sweetcorn variety over a period of 20 weeks showed a smaller litter size and lighter offspring than mice fed with non-engineered maize.
The differences “were statistically significant in the third and fourth litters,” according to an abstract of the study led by Professor Juergen Zentek and commissioned by Austria’s Environment Ministry.
Just another study showing us that GM foods are slowly poisoning us. This is what happens when you introduce brand-new proteins into the body, folks.
It’s pretty scary that movies like Children of Men seem like documentaries from the future…
I recommend checking out the documentaries about genetically modified foods and monsanto here.
