Ask your Member of Congress to cosponsor Rep. Dennis Kucinich's Genetically Engineered Food Right to Know Act (H.R. 5577).

Top 10 Reasons to Label Genetically Engineered Foods

10. Almost all of the food eaten in the U.S. today (that isn't certified organic) contains ingredients that come from genetically engineered crops or animals given genetically engineered feed, vaccines or growth hormones.

9. The genetically engineered foods we eat every day have not been tested to determine whether they are safe for human consumption. Monsanto got a permit to poison us from the Bush-Quayle Food and Drug Administration. Under their edict, which remains in effect today, the risks of genetically engineered foods are assumed to be no different from those of normal food. New foods are tested only if the companies do it.

8. Genetically engineered foods ARE different from conventional and organic foods.

7. A human study conducted by the UK's Food Standards Agency found that a single serving of genetically engineered soy can result in "horizontal gene transfer," where the bacteria of the gut takes up the modified DNA from the soy.

6. Animals fed genetically engineered feed ARE different from animals fed conventional and organic feeds.

5. A study of hamsters fed genetically engineered soy for two years over three generations, showed that by the third generation, most genetically-engineered-soy-fed hamsters lost the ability to have babies. They also suffered slower growth, a high mortality rate, and a bizarre birth defect: fur growing in their mouths.

4. More than half the babies from mother rats fed genetically engineered soy died within three weeks, a rate more than five times higher than the 10% death rate of the conventional soy group. The babies in the genetically engineered group were also smaller and could not reproduce. The testicles of male rats fed genetically engineered soy changed from the normal pink to dark blue, with noticeable differences at the cellular level. The more genetically engineered corn fed to mice, the fewer the babies they had, and the smaller the babies were.

3. Investigations of genetically engineered foods are confirming scientists' suspicions that biotech's scatter-shot technique of spraying plant cells with a buckshot of foreign genes that hit chromosomes in random spots would trigger the expression of new allergens and change the character of plant proteins.

2. Independent scientists who reviewed animal feeding studies conducted by Monsanto found that Monsanto's own data revealed the dangers of three of their commonly used corn varieties, proving "that genetically engineered foods are neither sufficiently healthy or proper to be commercialized."

1. Genetic engineering is a threat to biodiversity, the amount and variety of life on the planet. Evidence is mounting of the adverse effects that genetic engineering is having on lifeforms from soil microorganisms to bees and other beneficial insects to mammals and humans.
