Species Alteration: Is GMO Rewiring our DNA?
dna
New studies in cell research are bringing up some alarming new questions concerning GMOs, and one of them in particular makes liver failure or cancer seem like child’s play compared to the garish possibilities that arise when we start to look at how genetically modified foods likely affect our DNA.
Let’s get one thing straight, first. All kinds of things can alter our DNA, for the better or worse. Bruce Lipton, a pioneering biology scientist, proved that emotions can change our DNA; research has shown that even exercise or chemotherapy can alter our DNA; ancient cultures have known that sound can affect our DNA; and the newest research states that we aren’t relegated to a specific destiny because of our genes, but it seems our brains are being rewired via DNA to become ‘new humans.’
Our DNA contains two strands of nucleotides that make up its stair-like structure. Each nucleotide contains one of four bases (adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine) a phosphate group and a sugar molecule. The bases contain nitrogen, which bond in very specific ways. In one species the way the four bases connect to each other are very different than how they will organize in another.
In fact, double stranded RNA (dRNA) GMO created by Monsanto can allegedly turn off certain gene signals and turn on others. Usually, if you put in a Roundup ready gene into a plant, it requires a protein that can make a Roundup ready plant that can resist Roundup and still grow. However, the new dRNA can survive without protein synthesis. This allows the dRNA to alter genes.
In mice who were fed this dRNA, the liver completely changed its cell organization, and the mice grew strangely. The same effects were found when these dRNA were added to human cells. Allegedly, this GMO food can be turning on cancer causing genes, or quiet our immune systems. In other ways, the wheat we are consuming is so different than organic wheat that it is causing us to be addicted to it. Some are calling it bioterrorism for this reason.
GMO food plants make these new dRNA so that the gene structure is silenced or amplified in very specific ways. There are no evaluations of dRNA and how it will affect our genes by the FDA, and Monsanto is working on dRNA technology, buying up companies that are developing it so that it can be issued as the next round of GMO food they unleash unwittingly on us.
Researchers in Australia and New Zealand are exposing this issue. Even inhalation of the GMO company’s sprays can change the way our bodies produce DNA and associated proteins. Most frightening is the fact that this dRNA can translate through the offspring of the people exposed to it. In Canada, new research is showing that pregnant women’s blood samples contained traces of toxins found in GMO foods. Who knows what the long term ramifications are of messing with our very genetic structure, but they can’t be promising considering the track record of Monsanto thus far.
“The finding that GE toxins and also herbicide residues are being absorbed into consumers and unborn babies blood, shows that organic and GE-free foods should be first choice for families and especially pregnant women,” said Soil & Health – Organic spokesperson Steffan Browning.
There are plans to introduce this dRNA in food, medicines, vaccines, and ‘pesticide’ sprays. Unless you want to play a game of wait and see with your own genetic evolution, it might be time to go all organic until more research is leaked on the subject of GMO and DNA alteration.

wheat was hybridized & modified for yield&profit over 50 years ago, when disease rates grew exponetialy in america, now food companies are marketing ancient grains, spelt, kamut, cous cous, ect, the gluten allergies/diseases are caused because they messed with nature& the body does not recognize this new hybridized wheat LEAVE NATURE BE!
“Gross necropsy findings, haematological or urinalysis values and
clinical serum parameters showed no meaningful differences between rats
fed the control and RR soybean meals.” Means that the DNA did not get into the mice and the diet of GMO mice had no histological effects. So you have a reference that does not substantiate your claim
“In mice who were fed this dRNA, the liver completely changed its cell organization, and the mice grew strangely.”
I have signed the petition to stip Robert Fraley of the 2013 World Food Prize weeks ago, but this petition has been stagnant.
Everyone should sign this petition and let the world know thiat giving this prestigious prize to an EVIL individual who has poisoned THE WORLD for decades is absolutely unacceptable.
This prize was given to a Terrorist who kills not with guns, but with Chemicals that cause Disease and ending with death.
Please sign this petition and ask all your family and friends to do so also.
All good, honest and ethical people know that this prize has been a Disgrace, but a Greedy, Unethical and Dishonest person who represents a Greedy, Unethical and Dishonest Organization has No SHAME! http://www.avaaz.org/en/petition/Strip_Monsanto_o…?
Hiya this petition on Avaaz to strip Monsanto’s Robert Fraley’s 2013World Food Prize. Fraley developed Roundup Ready Soy, and is the reason he was awarded the prize. Please share the petition on your networks, email to friends, make it go everywhere..

When people quote “actual science” just understand that much of what is called “actual science” consists of papers written by people with budgetary financing concerns that have more of an effect on the results of their findings than any “actual science”.
Ha! NO GMO WHEAT IN THE FOOD CHAIN? Wheat has been genetically engineered since the 1960's and that's a fact.
The present article is pseudoscientific, like many others on the web.
Let's see real scientific research to find out what's on transgenics.

Monsanto is part of the evil taking over our world.
The top1% of corporations are so rich because they charge the most money they can, for the least amount of service and product. They do not care if people are poisoned, tortured, or die, as long as they can make exhorbitant amounts of money. They pay congress, and any other obstacles in their way, such as the media, to lie and extend their evil On top of that, they are able to get subsidies from tax payers, through these lies and deceptions. Oil companies, military contractors, giant food corporations, drug companies, will torture animals and people beyond belief in their labs and factory farms, with no conscience. They are sadistic and actually enjoy the suffering they cause through war, food, medicine, and destroying our earth, water and air. I honestly do not know how to stop them at this point in time. If any of them have any conscience at all, they should worry about where they will spend eternity. Matt-7: 23, and Matt-13: 41-43. Pray for them to see the light, and pray for our planet and God's people trying to survive this evil.
The ONLY rational thing for an individual Christian to do is to continue to pray that All Mighty GOD protect us from the evils of this GM food and products being foisted off on the world by Monsanto. There is science and good reputable solid science behind the fears of genetic manipulation of humanity via GM foods. We are learning more and more each day and until there is an outcry to outlaw the inclusion of GM products in any food sold for human consumption – the power of prayer and the power of GOD TO CHANGE THINGS is all we may have to stand upon! To rewire the human DNA is to tamper with CREATION ITSELF. We simply do not know enough about the DNA that we're "playing with" now to realize and fully understand the interconnection of one genetic pair to another. A genetic variation that may seem harmless – perhaps the coding for bright blue eyes (for instance) – can also switch on a pre-disposition to have certain types of cancer caused from environmental factors. This is already known. But what about the connections and links between gene pairs that are NOT KNOWN (that's most of them) and what altering one may do to many others. No, this is an area where mankind simply does not possess the information or the facts to allow them to tamper with such things, and yet that is exactly what is happening. PRAY. PRAY THAT THE MONSANTO CROPS FAIL in the Fields. Pray that consumers refuse to buy their products. Pray that GODS ANGLES BE DISPATCHED TO PROTECT US FROM THIS HORROR THEY'RE NOW PASSING OFF AS "FOOD"! IT's poison pure and simple. The only question is: Will it kill you physically or spiritually or both?
WTF???!! What does this has anything to do with GOD! You are delusional
There is NO GMO wheat in the food chain. You people are fools in that regard. However, the Monsanto process does create "plant AIDS" and it has the same effects on all living things by disrupting the metabolic pathways. Do your own research and don't believe anyone including me.
wheat is gmo for over 20 years it's just you don't know it. research
Your name says it all but should be very dimm.As of 2013, no GM wheat has been approved for release anywhere in the world!Now you re-research, O.K.?
Who says it has to b approved?? Not the US
Definetly don’t believe you. Wheat has been changed, research it yourself, o wise one.
GMOs have got to go.
It's possible that gmo products could trigger latent dna changes such as in Nimrod who became a gibborim. But I don't think it's to that point yet. What we are seeing is the beginning of the complete domination of the human species, gmo products are in no way safe, the crops will quickly contaminate other crops globally with their pollen and we will become nearly 100% dependent on a government or corporation for food. When the mark of the beast appears it will be obvious and we will have to willingly choose it, it's not going to sneak up on you and infect you or anyone else without absolutely knowing what you are accepting.
"ancient cultures have known that sound can affect our DNA"
Probably with those ancient high powered microscopes plugged into those ancient electrical sockets no doubt.
There are likely to be dangers from any kind of human technology, whether recombination of genes through software means or through old fashioned hybridization. Articles like this do no service to discovering what these dangers actually are and how to mediate them, or what we should do about them.
Here's a quotation from one of the linked studies from the OP proving the harm of GMOs…except that there was no harm:
"Gross necropsy findings, haematological or urinalysis values and clinical serum parameters showed no meaningful differences between rats fed the control and RR soybean meals. A 145bp of cp4 epsps gene specific for the GM constructs from RR soybean meal or a 407bp of lec gene from endogenous soybean DNA could not be detected in investigated masseter muscle samples. No adverse effects of glyphosate-tolerant soybean meal on rats were seen even at levels as high as 90% of the diet."
The OP interprets these non-findings as "In mice who were fed this dRNA, the liver completely changed its cell organization, and the mice grew strangely. The same effects were found when these dRNA were added to human cells."
There is no reference to any article showing any changes to human cells…nor even to "mice growing strangely" from the linked article.
To quote the actual science again, "No adverse effects of glyphosate-tolerant soybean meal on rats were seen even at levels as high as 90% of the diet."
This article is total misinformation and paranoia.
DUFF MCDUFFEE YOU ARE EITHER AN ESTABLISHMENT TROLL OR A TOTAL BUFOON WHO REFUSES TO SEE THE TRUTH. NO MATTER HOW COMPELLING THE EVIDENCE YOUR KIND ALWAYS REFUSES TO SEE THE TRUTH. WANT EVIDENCE READ JEFFERY SMITH’S BOOKS FOR OPENERS. THERE ARE MANY OTHERS BUT HIS IS A GOOD START. ALSO THERE IS A PLETHORA OF EVIDENCE WRITTEN BY COMPETENT SCIENTISTS AND RESEARCHERS WHO ARE NOT FOR SALE THAT DOCUMENT THE HEALTH DESTROYING EFFECTS OF GMO’S. HOWEVER, I DOUBT THAT YOU HAVE THE INCLINATION OR INTELLECT TO APPRECIATE THEM. YOUR COMMENTS CONTAINED NOTHING BUT YOUR OPINION BACKED BY NOTHING. OH AND OLD FASHIONED HYBRIDIZATION DOES NOT ALTER THE GENETIC STRUCTURE OF PLANTS BUT GMO’S ARE RADICALLY ALTERED AT THE GENETIC LEVEL. OF COURSE I DO NOT EXPECT YOU TO GRASP THE SIGNIFICANCE OF ALTERATION AT THE GENETIC LEVEL. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE NOT A USEFUL IDIOT OF THE DARK SIDE AND UNDERSTAND THE DESTRUCTIVE NATURE OF THESE RADICALLY ALTERED GMO’S THEN YOU ARE A MONSTER AND AN ENEMY OF HUMANITY.
A troll, bufoon [sic], and an enemy of humanity…all for pointing out an error of fact in this article all the while acknowledging that all human technologies carry risk and that we should do more science to determine those risks. Interesting.
Also sir you might note that typing in ALL CAPS on the internet makes it look like you are yelling.
I DO ALL CAPS BECAUSE OF ARTRITIS. 70 yrs old. it makes it easier. sometimes not yelling.
Sorry to hear about your arthritis. Take care,
~Duff
MCDUFFEE I APOLOGIZE FOR THE HARSH WORDS. I REGRETTED THEM SHORTLY AFTER I PUSHED THE POST COMMENT BUTTON. I SHOULD HAVE JUST RECOMMENDED READING “SEEDS OF DECEPTION” BY JEFFREY SMITH. AMAZON CARRIES THIS AND A HOST OF OTHER BOOKS ON THE SUBJECT OF GMO’S. ADD TO THIS A VAST NUMBER OF SERIOUS ARTICLES WRITTEN ON THE SUBJECT. MONSANTO IS AT WAR WITH MOST OF THE REST OF WORLD-MOST NATIONS INCLUDING CHINA, INDIA, AFRICA AND THE NATIONS OF EUROPE DO NOT WANT THEIR PRODUCTS AND FREQUENTLY DESTROY THEM LIKE CHINA AND HUNGARY HAVE RECENTLY DONE. IF THIS IS PARANOIA IT IS ON A GRAND SCALE AND HAS GONE GLOBAL. AND NO I AM NOT SHOUTING BY USING CAPS IT JUST GOES QUICKER THAT WAY. I DO AGREE I SHOULD DISPENSE WITH THE CAPS.
Hey thanks, I appreciate the apology. Take care,
~Duff
I guess millions are wrong and your right. Now go play lil puppet .
Read "Wheat Belly" by William Davis … we must not eat wheat, corn syrup, …
Then we have panic over Soy being engineered to cause more problems and health issues.
Now all GMOs?
All I have left is celery and carrot sticks. If my ears start to flop, and I start hopping around, do not call the ASPCA!
I pretty much at this point just stay away from the most ‘known’ GMO foods (for the most part), which are typically the foods we eat the most which would make them the first choice to alter naturally. Off the top of my head the first 3 would be corn, wheat, and sugar. Not sure why though. The real war is against Christianity since we are the biggest obstacle to the Luciferian kingdom the Luciferian elites want to (try to) prop up. Being a Christian your life expectancy is short (couple of years tops?) at this point and will probably end in a way very different than what GMOs are going to do.
Wisefool, i agree this is all technology fit for a Luciferian kingdom. Our gracious father revealed to me that it is love, his pure, perfect love that conquers all! The enemy would have us believe we are defenseless to all of their ploys. i actually heard YaHWeH laughing at the schemes of men and fallen ones and ended up laughing with him. His work is finished at the cross and he gave us the weapons by which to do combat with the enemy of our mortal souls. We have been lied to for millenia about the access we have to the power available to us from the very throne of YaHWEH and his son YESHUA! Remember who you are and that you have been born for such a time as this….
you just keep believing and praying. I’ll rely on myself and my Ruger.
Peace
This logic is getting closer.
you know when the real illusion started? This is a short history lesson. I've tried to explain this to many Christians. I'll be blatant with this. I will also say, I read PLENTY of "occult" literature. But this is all straight from recorded history. Mixed with common sense. Why would I read occult literature? Wouldnt you want to know what your "enemy" was thinking? If you don't trust the government, why would you trust the church? It's another form of social control. The one that has done the absolute most damage in recorded history.
I will say this, I 10000% believe Yeshua. I also believe Buddha. I except all ascended masters and disregard all prophets that say they "spoke to god".
Paul (the first pope, as you know) combined the Jewish religion, the cult of mithras (which actually isnt bad fyi. not all cults are evil. some clearly are.) and the teachings of Yeshua. The early christian gnostics had a very very different approach to Yeshua's teachings. It was: here are 60 different Gospels. All written by different people with different views. Then? It was, What do you think? There was no preacher telling them what to do. Think for yourself. Here are the teachings of peace and unity presented from multiple perspectives. whats your perspective?
Enter THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE. Constantine "saw a cross over the battlefield" then won said battle. But wait, wasn't Christ a blatant heretic against the Romans? They did crucify him. Constantine saw that if the Gnostic beliefs got out? Roman would lose power REALLY quickly. Can't really control a society based on love and free thinking, can you? So he "converted". Enter the Council of Nicaea. Where out of the 60 Gospels, only 4 were picked. The worst most trapping and condemning ones! Then? The Romans made the symbol of their church? The earthly embodiment of love NAILED TO THE CROSS. Which THEY DID. I know the reasoning behind this. Christ died for our sins. But isnt it really, Christ died BECAUSE of our sins? Because we didnt listen? That the Kingdom of heaven is inside you. To LOVE your brothers and sisters no matter what? Why, because they are YOU. We are all ONE.
The church's symbol is the place where one of the greatest beings in the history of earth was MURDERED. BY THOSE WHO FOUNDED THE CHURCH.
also, a god that loves you but is also jealous and hates you? Yeah, there is a god like that. Lucifer/Satan. The demiurge. Mammon. Baphomet. The ruler of the Earth… The material world.
So, who's side are you really on? Christ wasn't a christian. he also wasnt a jew (in the full sense, clearly).
Think for yourselves. Read all you can. KNOW all you can. Who really wrote the Bible? The Roman's did…
and the Roman's still rule the earth.
oh and FYI, Pagan means civilian in latin… notice the past few presidents AND the last Pope flashing the devil horns? yeah…. it's the oldest illusion I can think of that people still buy into without questioning it. It's really sad…
Think for yourselves. The kingdom of heaven is inside each of you. It always was. You are redeemed as soon as you choose to act on the side of light. It's that simple.
I KNOW what side I am on…
I have read "Wheat Belly". I cannot recommend it highly enough. I am asking everyone I know to read it. I stumbled across it when I found that I have a gluten sensitivity. I've been off all things gluten now for four months and I have my life back! I'm losing weight as a bonus. WHEAT HAS BEEN ENGINEERED TO WORK ON OUR "d" RECEPTORS. Those are the opiate receptors. Figure it out from there.
