Biotech lies exposed: Genetically-modified corn contains practically no nutrients but is loaded with chemical poisons
(NaturalNews) A breakthrough report on the nutritional density of
genetically-modified (GM) corn crops demolishes all existing claims that
GMOs are "substantially equivalent" to non-GMOs. Entitled
2012 Nutritional Analysis: Comparison of GMO Corn versus Non-GMO Corn,
the paper reveals not only that GMO corn is greatly lacking in vitamins
and minerals compared to non-GMO corn, but also that it is highly toxic
and filled with deadly crop chemicals like glyphosate (Roundup).
The owners of the blog
MomsAcrossAmerica.com say the report was shared with them by De Dell Seed Company, Canada's
only non-GMO corn seed supplier, which obtained it from a
Minnesota-based agricultural company called ProfitPro. Overall, the
paper found that non-GMO corn is
20 times richer in nutrition, energy and protein compared to GMO corn.
Concerning energy content, as measured in terms of ERGS, non-GMO corn was found in tests to give off
3,400 times more energy per gram, per second compared to GMO corn, an astounding variance. And as far as its overall
percentage of organic matter is concerned, non-GMO corn was determined
to have nearly twice as much of this vital component compared to GMO
corn.
Non-GMO corn contains substantially more potassium, magnesium, calcium, sulfur and manganese The field comparison also evaluated individual nutrient deviations,
which revealed some shocking facts. Potassium, which is necessary for
energy production and proper cellular function, is barely even present
in
GMO corn, having clocked in at 0.7 parts per million (ppm). In non-GMO corn, however, potassium levels were
more than 13 times higher, testing at 9.2 ppm.
The disparity was even worse for magnesium, which tested at a mere 0.2 ppm in
GMO corn. In non-GMO corn, however, magnesium levels were found to be
46 times higher than in non-GMO corn. Similar variances were observed for calcium,
sulfur and manganese as well, with the contents of each being
12.4, 14, and seven times higher, respectively.
On the other hand, non-GMO
corn was found to be free of chlorides, formaldehyde, glyphosate, and other
harmful chemicals, while in GMO corn they were identified in dangerously
high levels. According to an analysis of the report by
MomsAcrossAmerica.com, GMO corn contains about
19 times more glyphosate than is permitted as a maximum in drinking water by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and
130 times more glyphosate than has been found in tests to cause organ damage in animals.
Similarly,
GMO corn contains dangerously high levels of formaldehyde, according to
the report. A previous study conducted by Dr. Don Huber on GMOs
revealed that .97 ppm of formaldehyde is toxic if ingested by animals.
As it turns out, GMO corn contains
200 times more formaldehyde than this maximum safety threshold.
Monsanto engaged in massive fraud with claims that GMOs are 'substantially equivalent' to non-GMOs These shock findings are at great odds with the claims continually
being made by agri-genocide giant Monsanto. On its corporate website,
Monsanto claims that approved genetically-modified (GM) crops are
"substantially equivalent" to non-GMOs, meaning they are not
nutritionally different from
non-GMO crops. But as this study shows, these claims are patently false, and
indicate that Monsanto is engaged in a global agricultural scam based on
complete lies.
"Glyphosate is a strong organic phosphate chelator that immobilizes positively charged
minerals such as manganese, cobalt, iron, zinc, copper, etc. that are essential
for normal physiological functions in soils, plants and animals,"
explains Dr. Huber about how GMO crop chemicals literally destroy the
nutrient content of GMO crops.
