DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU EAT?


The other day there was a program on the radio about geneticaly modified organisms.We calI it GDO in turkish.I didn’t know that genetical change is so dangerous for our life and future.I said future because it affects posterity much more than us.
First,what is GMO?It is a way of transfering new genetical features to plants,animals etc. with a transporter. New gene transfered to the plants or animals is durable to antibiotics.So,it seems to be more useful and long-lived,but this feature endangers the insects and then all the ecosystem.GMO also endangers the biodiversity and it causes to biological pollution.
Unfortunately there is no assay that reveal the danger of genetically modified products in the world.Two scientists carried out some experiments.One of them was Skotch doctor Arpad Pustza who worked in Rowett reserch institute.He fed mouses with genetically modified potatoes.Their digestive system spoiled, their blood order was destroyed ,their immune system was broken down and their all internal organs became smaller.Pustza wanted to publish this result to people and warn them,but he was dismissed after he published the result.
The other scientist who wanted to analyse GMO is Russian doctor İrina Ermakova.He carried an experiment on three groups of mouses.One group was fed with genetically modified soyabean.Second group was fed with normal soyabean.The last group was fed with normal nourishment.He carried the experiment three times because results were very dramatic and each result was similar to each other.Fiftysix percent of the mouses that was fed with genetical modified soyabeans died three weeks after their birth and they were under the normal weight.Only nine percent of the mouses that was fed with normal soyabean died.Only six percent of the mouses that was fed with normal nourishment died.That is to say ,first group died sixfold more than the second group.
GMO is found in vaccines like ensulin ,hepatitis b.,it is found in foods like instant soup, soya bean,corn,banger,sausage,salami,tomatoe,hazelnat paste,peanut butter,cola,fruit juice,bakery products,chocolate,powder milk,infant formulae.
As a result please pay more attention to products that you buy from now on…
