GMO Tumor Study Author Blasts Agencies for 90 Day GMO ‘Safety’ Study

Agencies within the United States and elsewhere tend to be very
distrusting when it comes to studies linking GMOs to any form of
illness, demanding every specific detail from the scientific researchers
and trying their best to scrutinize just a single factor within the
study.

But when it comes to haphazard 90-day trials intended to prove the ‘safety‘ of genetically modified organisms, it seems that these agencies are more than willing to look the other way.

And according to the author of the recent landmark study that discovered a lifetime consumption
of GMOs in rats led to not only tumors but massive amounts of organ
damage, his anti-GMO research is the latest to be under fire from the
same agencies that allow Monsanto’s ridiculous 90 day trial to pass as
scientific gold.

In response to the mass retaliation from government
agencies that let GMOs ram through the regulatory process with barely
any safety measures (that are continually being reduced) and
questionable Monsanto-funded ties, lead researcher of the GMO rat tumor
study Professor Gilles-Eric Seralini said:
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The agencies that criticise our study’s statistical weakness have never
demanded from industry a 10th of the data that they now instruct us to
provide them with.</blockquote>



In the same statement, Seralini explained how the European Food Safety
Authority (EFSA) actually accepted tests that lasted for 90 days or less
conducted on a shockingly low four or five groups of rats for the
Amflora potato — a genetically modified potato variety.

What Seralini did not mention which is of even further concern, however,
is that the USDA is now limiting the safety testing needed on GMOs
under a new ‘fast tracking’ process
that allows for Monsanto push experimental GMOs through with barely any
regulatory testing. Meanwhile, the organization has been tearing into
Seralini’s research on a mission to prove the ‘safety’ of GMOs.

In Seralini’s research, 50% of the male rats and 70% of the male rats
died when consuming GMO seed or drinking Roundup-laced water. Many of
the rats also experienced tumors the size of golf balls that inhibited
them from movement.
