Studies are showing that Bt toxins found
in Monsanto crops are harmful to mammalian blood by damaging red blood
cells and more. RBC’s are responsible for delivering oxygen to the body
tissues through blood flow.
Bacillus thuringensis (Bt) is a
bacterium commonly used as a biological pesticide. It is a microorganism
that produces toxic chemicals. It occurs naturally in the environment,
and is usually isolated from soil, insects and plant surfaces. Prior to
this study, Bt was thought to be toxic only to insects, but recent
studies are proving otherwise.
Dr. Mezzomo and his team of Scientists
from the Department of Genetics and Morphology and the Institute of
Biological Sciences, at University of Brasilia recently published a
study that involved Bacillus thuringensis (Bt toxin) and its effects on
mammalian blood. According to the study, the “Cry” toxins that are found
in Monsanto’s GMO crops like corn and soy, are much more toxic to
mammals than previously thought. The study was published in the Journal
of Hematology and Thromboembolic Diseases(1).
We do not support animal testing, and
think it is unnecessary. It should really be a no brainer that GMO crops
cause significant damage to human health. Studies that don’t require
animal testing have already proven the dangers of GMO consumption. This
study unfortunately required the use of Swiss Albino Mice if Bt was to
be properly examined. At the same time, most of us know that the
existence of GMOs is completely unnecessary.
