Study: Goats Fed GM Soy Have Altered DNA, Milk, and Offspring
Evidence that our offspring are suffering, too
crops
First, the herbicide chemical glyphosate was found in breast milk of mothers around the country. Now, there is a new study showing that the DNA in goats fed transgenic, GM soy feed is altered, and the milk itself is of lower quality, affecting the offspring.
Kid goats were studied both in vivo and post mortem, and what the researchers of this study found was not good. Colostrum is the ‘pre-milk’ in all mammals that provides incredible immuno-defense to offspring. It comes in first before the regular milk supply to ensure that new babies (in this case, baby goats) are ready to take on the dangerous microbes of the world.
It was found that kids (baby goats) which fed on GM soy had both DNA fragments that were not supposed to be there, i.e., are not normally found in goat milk, and the immunoglobulin concentration was altered. Furthermore, the colostrum had significantly lower levels of both protein and fat.
The study states:
“. . . transgenic DNA fragments were amplified (P < 0.05) in samples from goats that received the transgenic soybean.”
The baby goats that came from mothers fed GM soy also had altered physical traits. For instance, a significant height difference at the chest and withers than their non-GMO fed counterparts was observed.
How GMOs Could Hurt Not Only Us, but our Offspring
It is becoming increasingly obvious that genetically modified foods not only have negative effects on people who consume them, but are also future offspring. Morphological and biochemical changes in DNA fed GM corn was also found in male rats. You can imagine what it is doing to the human form.
Oh, but you don’t have to imagine. There is evidence of GM foods altering human DNA as well. Geneticist David Suzuki recently said that human beings are part of a “massive genetic experiment,” and he is right to be concerned. Suzuki points out:
“One small mutation in a human being can determine so much, the point is when you move a gene, one gene, one tiny gene out of an organism into a different one you completely change its context. There is no way to predict how it’s going to behave and what the outcome will be. We think that we design these life forms, but it’s like taking the Toronto orchestra prepared to play a Beethoven symphony and then you take some random drummers from “here” and flip them in with the Toronto symphony and you say play music. What comes out is going to be something very very different. Publicists say that there is good intention behind GMOs, but the fact of the matter is it’s driven by money.”
Horizontal gene transfer is a very real phenomenon, even though biotech advocates say it doesn’t pose any risk. This means that genetic material is transferred from one organism to another without reproduction in the ‘usual’ sense in which we understand it.
Dr. Mae-Wan Ho, an expert for the currently ongoing trial against Monsanto for false advertising in California, says that genetic modification interferes fundamentally with the natural genetic modifications that organisms undergo in order to survive. Under natural circumstances, this is done in real time as “an exquisitely precise molecular dance of life.”
Too bad the baby goats aren’t able to refuse GM food, but you can.

you’re not on target unless the shills and trolls are on your a*s…. NS clearly on target 😉
There seems to be a rise in pro GMO, and Monsanto trolls, and shills. Seems like Monsanto is becoming desperate at gaining public opinions. There has been studies done in China, and the UK concerning genetically altered DNA from GMO foods absorbing into the body, and influence human cell function.
There is so much wrong with GMO foods that it’s near impossible to list, but hey they their paid shills, and pseudo-scientist to tell you how good GMO is for you. Yummy!
The greatest problem is the wide array of problems caused by modern medicine and applicable environmental issues, ie human body and internal immunities.
It makes it harder to make a definitive cause.
Look at it this way, everybody is different and their internal reactions to different elements won’t provide the same results.
That is the advantage that science has over the concerns of the people.
Again, with the wide range of reactions it makes it easier for the deniers and the advocates of Corporate tyranny.
I’m healthy, raised on good foods, almost never get sick, used to work out regularly.
My system is stronger, different weaknesses within me will be attacked, it’s has a lot to do with personal and past histories which will give different reactions to any infiltration of our bodies. Thus creating different ailments to the same exposure.
Already a known fact, the supporters of the human destruction have the advantage, by design.
No reference to peer-reviewed science…more unsubstantiated garbage.
The same can be said of the GMO industry, make your point.
The gmo industry has an enormous amount of scientific data, and the overwhelming majority of the scientific community is in agreement that gmos are safe.
From that narrow minded perspective, yes GMO’s are safe.
But Corporate lobbyists have won making them the sole responsibility for establishing industry standards and allowing them to do their own research without regulatory intrusion.
Is that safe?
Look at the big picture.
And what can be gained from lying? The truth would come out sooner or later costing the company more than they would ever make. Use a little common sense for a change.
I’m not playing the elementary school games with you.
LOL, yes you aren’t very good at those either.
The behavioral sciences has an extensive history.
There are many factors considered.
I have dealt with thousands from many different cultures and ethnic backgrounds.
Your known throughout the sciences, your not new to the world. Human nature dictates.
Maslow’s hierarchy of needs has been mentioned here before, This is very important in determining a persons character.

And so far there is zero evidence to prove them wrong. Just because you don’t agree with the system doesn’t make it wrong.
GMO Roberts again with his green colored avatar signifying faux-grass and his words the winding poison-washed weeds advancing slowly, soon to choke his wobbly hobby-horse and the Monsanto purse-strings doling out the modern-day equivalent of thirty-pieces of silver. Rich pickings for such sustained cheap shots. Go Move Off somewhere else. Your presence – like your paymasters, stirs nothing but revulsion.
Listen to the Doc!! Articles like this is pure trash. This misinformation needs to stop. We need more people like Soil Doc & GMO Roberts!!! True Patriots!!! Wake up Reg and open your eyes. You are being duped and don’t even realize it.
So a Patriot supports global poverty and destruction?
LOL, providing cheap and nutritious food to the world is destructive to someone like you isn’t it.
Do some research and get back to me with some actual facts.
I have given plenty and as usual you deny them.
Here’s a fact,
DNA Evidence Can Be Fabricated, Scientists Show
Dated, AUG. 17, 2009
This information comes from the worlds leading scientific experts.
Just because it can doesn’t mean it is.
That tactic is a good play.
This is what Is called blind faith.
But the historical fact is,
Usually, if they can they do!
No, because if they get caught and those kind usually do they would lose everything.
Large corporations have been caught many times over.
It is a corporate policy, because they gain mass profits, then by the time they get caught, they are fined pennies on the dollar compared to the profits over the years that their unethical practices have been in play.
Look up the recent banking and market manipulation cases.
Might be new to you, but the mainstream media has been providing coverage and proof of this type of corporate behavior for years.
I saw this and you came to mind.
5 Master Crimes You May Have To Explain To Future Generations For Not Stopping
http://www.activistpost.com/2015/09/5-master-crimes.html
3 – Open genetic (GMO) contamination of the food supply of the species.
What about when future generations find out that, especially in America, people convinced themselves with Monsanto paid-for propaganda that it was somehow “safe” to eat genetically contaminated food every day and to ignore the simultaneous rise in cancer and many other medical diseases across the board amongst males, females, adults and even children? How will you get out of this one? We’re talking a mass program of progressive stupidity and ignorance that the species decided to suicidally and hypnotically accept to poison their own DNA by poisoning their own food supply so that a small group of people representing several large corporations could profit by imitating the food resource of the planet.
Do you have your story ready? Because future generations will want to know if you threw them under the bus and allowed them to eat proven poison without telling them what they were eating. Will you dissociate yourself from this mass stupidity? Will you be able to show a body of work that you did to stop this?
gmo is seeds of deception. And you gmo robert are a loser shill.
http://www.wanttoknow.info/deception10pg
Good lord! An infestation of shills getting their shilling’s worth.
Yes you know the majority that voted to defeat things like labeling in five states so far.
Oh chrissy more lies?
Just admit it. You have a crush on her. You’re also jealous. Why do you do your own publishing for us to criticize?
Oh yes I’m just attracted to women that lie constantly.
As she is attracted to fat lazy men who support the destruction of nature.
