转基因玉米含大量有毒化学物

 

An anti-GMO website has posted the results of an education-based consulting company's comparison of corn types, and the results reveal that genetically modified foods may be more hazardous³ than once thought.

 

The study, the 2012 Corn Comparison Report by Profit Pro⁴, was published recently on the website for Moms Across America March to Label GMOs, a group that says they wish to "raise awareness⁵ and support Moms with solutions to eat GMO Free as we demand GMO labeling locally and nationally simultaneously⁶." They are plotting nationwide protests scheduled for later this year.

 

The report, writes the website's Zen Honeycutt, was provided by a representative for De Dell Seed Company, an Ontario-based farm that's touted⁷ as being Canadian only non-GMO corn seed company.

 

"The claims that 'There is no difference between GMO corn and NON Gmo corn' are false," says Honeycutt, who adds she was "floored" after reading the study. 

 

According to the analysis, GMO corn tested by Profit Pro contains a number of elements absent from traditional corn, including chlorides, formaldehyde and glyphosate. While those elements don't appear naturally in corn, they were present in GMO samples to the tune⁸ of 60 ppm, 200pm and 13 ppm, respectively.

 

Honecutt says that the United States Environmental Protection Agency (FDA) mandates⁹ that the level of glyphosate in American drinking water not exceed 0.7 ppm and adds that organ damage in some animals has been linked to glyphosate（草甘膦） exposure exceeding 0.1 ppm.

 

"Glyphosate is a strong organic phosphate chelator（磷酸酯） that immobilizes positively¹⁰ charged minerals such as manganese, cobalt, iron, zinc¹¹ [and] copper," Dr. Don Huber attested¹² during a separate GMO study recently released, adding that those elements "are essential for normal physiological¹³ functions in soils, plants and animals."

 

"Glyphosate draws out the vital nutrients¹⁴ of living things and GMO corn is covered with it," adds Honeycutt, who notes that the nutritional¹⁵ benefits rampant¹⁶ in natural corn are almost entirely¹⁷ removed from lab-made seeds: in the samples used during the study, non-GMO corn is alleged¹⁸ to have 437-times the amount of calcium¹⁹ in genetically modified versions, and 56- and 7-times the level of magnesium²⁰ and manganese, respectively.
