65 Health Risks of GM Foods
Part 1: The Documented Health Risks of Genetically Engineered Foods
Section 5: Transfer of genes to gut bacteria, internal organs, or viruses
5.1 In spite of industry claims, transgenes survive the digestion system and can wander
5.2 Transgene design facilitates transfer into gut bacteria
5.3 Transgenes may proliferate in gut bacteria over the long-term
5.4 Transgene transfer to human gut bacteria is confirmed
5.5 GM foods might create antibiotic-resistant diseases
5.6 The promoter can also transfer, and may switch on random genes or viruses
5.7 If Bt genes transfer, they could turn our gut bacteria into living pesticide factories
5.8 Genes may transfer to bacteria in the mouth or throat
5.9 Transfer of viral genes into gut microorganisms may create toxins and weaken peoples' viral defenses
