【净界小编】昨天看到Dr. Mercola网站的《故事一览》栏目内容后,觉得其所叙述的事实一直被大家所忽略:我们只注重吃饱,却没有留意其营养已经发生了质的变化,并对动物和人类健康造成危害。为此,将短文翻译后与大家共享,提醒大家注意转基因作物的潜在危险。
故事一览
1、2012年的一份关于转基因与非转基因玉米的营养分析显示了令人震惊的营养含量的差异:和转基因玉米相比,非转基因玉米中钙含量达437倍以上,镁达56倍以上,锰达7倍之多;
2、研究发现,转基因玉米含有百万分之13(1ppm=1mg/kg=1mg/L)的草甘膦(杀虫剂),非转基因玉米含量为零。美国环保局对供水系统中草甘膦含量的“安全”级别定义是0.7
PPM,而动物体内的0.1 ppm的草甘膦就造成动物器官损伤;
3、转基因玉米中的甲醛含量高达引起动物中毒剂量的200倍;
4、德州一位少年从中学起用果蝇做实验,研究表明,在几乎每一个健康指标包括生育能力,抗应激能力和长寿方面,喂有机香蕉和土豆的果蝇的表现明显优于那些用普通农产品喂养的果蝇。她的研究最近发表在一份有声望的科学期刊上。
Story at-a-glance
- A 2012 nutritional analysis of GMO versus non-GMO corn shows shocking differences in nutritional content. Non-GMO corn contains 437 times more calcium, 56 times more magnesium, and 7 times more manganese than GMO corn
- GMO corn was also found to contain 13 ppm of glyphosate, compared to zero in non-GMO corn. EPA “safe” level for glyphosate in American water supplies is 0.7 ppm, and organ damage in animals has occurred at levels as low as 0.1 ppm
- GMO corn contains extremely high levels of formaldehyde—about 200 times the amount found toxic to animals
- Research by a Texas teenager using fruit flies, which began when she was in middle school, shows that in virtually every health measure, including fertility, stress resistance and longevity, flies that fed on organic bananas and potatoes fared better than those who fed on conventionally raised produce. Her research was recently published in a respected science journal
