Inside GM soys “genes” are inserted, and can transfer into the human's DNA. GM corn can be toxic because of the harsh bacteria living inside it causing massive damage in the organs. Medical groups condemn the use of GM bovine growth hormone, because milk treated from cows has much higher levels of IGF-1, a hormone considered to be a high risk factor for breast, prostate, colon, lung, and other cancers.
