Women who eat GM foods while pregnant risk endangering their unborn babies, startling new research suggests.
The study – carried out by a leading scientist at the Russian Academy of Sciences – found that more than half of the offspring of rats fed on modified soya died in the first three weeks of life, six times as many as those born to mothers with normal diets. Six times as many were also severely underweight.”
GM = Genetically Modified Foods.
Eat fresh, organic, non-hybrid, and non-genetically modified foods, especially when you are pregnant and nursing!
