That's not the opinion of the American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM)... this organization reported that "several animal studies provide strong evidence for health risks associated with eating food containing GMOs.

The health problems reported in these studies particularly affect infertility, immunity, accelerated aging, regulation of sugar and insulin metabolism, and organ functions of the gastrointestinal system.

Since then, the AAEM has been asking physicians to advise against this type of food for at-risk patients or those with existing health problems.

Before allowing GMOs in food without labeling, FDA scientists had repeatedly warned that this type of food could generate unpredictable health problems such as increased allergies, the development of new diseases or nutritional problems (deficiencies, obesity, etc.). Despite the evidence of extensive and lengthy studies, their warnings have been ignored.

Since then, the arguments against GMOs have continued to accumulate:

• In India, for example, thousands of sheep, buffaloes and goats have died after grazing on genetically modified cotton fields.
• Mice that ate GMO corn over a long period of time gave birth to significantly fewer mice, and those born at term were significantly smaller.
• More than half of the baby rats whose mothers received GMO soy were significantly smaller than average and died within 3 weeks of birth.
• The testicular cells of these mice and rats fed with transgenic soy were significantly smaller, especially from the third generation on.
• Most hamsters fed GMOs have lost the ability to reproduce.
• Baby rodents fed GMO corn had dysfunctional immune system responses and allergic reactions to cooked soy were 7 times higher than the conventional percentages of known allergic reactions.
• Soy allergies have skyrocketed by 50% in the UK since GMO soy was introduced into the food sector.
• The stomach lining of rats that ate GMO potatoes exhibited excessive cell growth, which are conditions conducive to the developments of possible cancers.
• The studies also revealed damage to key organs such as the liver or the pancreas, an endocrine gland with abnormal cell and enzyme levels.

Unlike clinical studies for the evaluation of drugs, there are no human clinical tests on GMO foods, so we can only rely on the results of animal studies to try to assess the risks to which humans are subjected by eating this type of food.

The only published trial the GMOs used in humans consisted of genetic material (GMO soybeans) imported into the heart of the bacteria of the gut flora.

The bacteria appear to continue to function while reproducing the new genetically modified structure.

In conclusion, long after we stop eating genetically modified food, the proteins reproduce these transformed and modified structures.

It can also be concluded that an antibiotic used in most GMO crops could be transferred into the heart of the human genetic code and thus create "super" diseases that are entirely resistant to antibiotics.

Just as if the gene that causes BT-toxin in GMO corn were transferred into the core of our DNA, it could turn gut bacteria into living pesticide factories.

No study has evaluated all the consequences of GMOs and this type of gene transfer (antibiotic or BT-toxin), and researchers realize that this is a big problem.

Health assessments are far too superficial to identify the full range of potential hazards of GMOs.

Every day, new studies come to support the overwhelming evidence already collected and which formally demonstrate the damage caused by GMOs on the liver and kidneys, giving rise to congenital anomalies or sterility in animals fed with genetically modified soy or corn.
