A little more info...

There has really hardly been any testing on the effects of GMOs on humans, but almost all lab animals exposed to GMOs have had negative reactions in one way or another. I thought this graph was helpful in seeing a variety of illnesses caused by GMOs in these animals.

While we're being educational, I also am attaching this YouTube video. I personally follow a blogger who reports on Mike Adams, "Health Ranger" and reporter on Natural News. This video reports on the effects GMOs have on our organs and also talks about how Monsanto literally says: "There is no need to test the safety of DNA introduced into GM crops" and that there is "no need for, or value in testing the safety of GM food in humans." 

The rest of the video goes on to talk about the recent study called "Exogenous plant MIR168a targets mammalian LDLRAP1: evidence of cross-kingdom regulation by microRNA." This means that microRNA "has now been found to pass from the foods through digestion into your blood and then to attach onto your organs." There, it "modifies the function and the expression of those organs. This is groundbreaking science. This nullifies the safety claims of Monsanto." 

In the abstract of the study, "we report the surprising finding that exogenous plant miRNAs are present in the sera and tissues of various animals and that these exogenous plant miRNAs are primarily acquired orally, through food intake." 

Adams asks the quintessential question: if we are what we eat, then "what happens when you consume plants that have been altered--artificially concocted--in a laboratory by profit-driven scientists working for the most evil corporation in the world?"
