NEW STUDY INDICATES HEALTH HAZARDS OF GMOs
New scientific research has revealed some disturbing health implications
related to genetically modified foods. The viral promoter used in GE
crops to "turn on" certain genes has been found in the tissue of test
rats. The biotech industry has consistently claimed this is impossible.
According to Dr Terje Traavik, the study's results indicate that these
same promoters could switch on any number of viruses that normally lay
dormant within our own DNA and/or change the activity and structure of
chromosomes, creating the potential for inducing cancer and/or metabolic
changes. http://www.organicconsumers.org/ge/studies030404.cfm
