GMO Impossible Burger Tests 11 X Glyphosate Weed Killer ResidueがBeyond Meat Burgerよりも高い

7月 8, 2019を更新しました

A Monsanto trial jury awarded the plaintiffs over $2 billion dollars, for the connection between the glyphosate-based herbicide, Roundup, and their cancer. Today, Moms Across America announces that the Impossible Burger* tested positive for glyphosate. The levels of glyphosate detected in the Impossible burger by Health Research Institute Laboratories were 11 X higher than the Beyond Meat Burger. The total result (glyphosate and its break down AMPA) was 11.3 ppb. Moms Across America also tested the Beyond Meat Burger and the results were 1 ppb.

“We are shocked to find that the Impossible Burger can have up to 11X higher levels of glyphosate residues than the Beyond Meat Burger according to these samples tested. This new product is being marketed as a solution for “healthy” eating, when in fact 11 ppb of glyphosate herbicide consumption can be highly dangerous. Only 0.1 ppb of glyphosate has been shown to alter the gene function of over 4000 genes in the livers, kidneys and cause severe organ damage in rats.**** I am gravely concerned that consumers are being misled to believe the Impossible Burger is healthy.” stated Zen Honeycutt, Executive Director of Moms Across America.

インポッシブルバーガーは、遺伝子組み換え（GM）された新しい植物ベースの製品です。 ナチュラルプロダクツエキスポウエストで目立つように紹介されました。バーガーキング、ホワイトキャッスル、ハードロックカフェ、レッドロビン、チーズケーキファクトリー**、その他数百のレストランがこの商品を扱っています。 メニューでGMとしてラベル付けまたは説明する必要がない場合。 インポッシブルバーガーはGMO大豆でできています。 動物実験で臓器損傷を引き起こすことが示されている とされています 非GMO大豆とは大幅に異なることが示されています。インポッシブルバーガーのGM成分。遺伝子組み換え酵母と GM 大豆レグヘモグロビンタンパク質, 46は非公開でテストもされていません、報告された即時の理由により、グリホサートによる長期的な健康への影響よりも多くの消費者にさらに懸念を抱いています アレルギー 製造業者によって認められている反応電位。インポッシブルバーガーで使用されている遺伝子組み換え大豆の一部は、これまで人間の食料供給で許可されたことはなく、適切な安全性テストも行われていません。

Although the leghemoglobin soy is claimed to be “identical to soy heme which has been consumed for thousands of years”, the following question posed by Consumers Report’s Michael Hansen has never been answered: “How could the heme in the Impossible Burger be 'identical' to the heme humans have been consuming for hundreds of thousands of years in meat and other foods if you genetically engineer it?”

***UPDATED: Impossible Burger Ingredients: (All ingredients in red could be 遺伝子組み換え OR sprayed with グリホサート herbicides as a drying agent) 
Water, Soy Protein Concentrate, Coconut Oil, Sunflower Oil, Natural Flavors, 2% or less of: Potato Protein, Methylcellulose (possibly from cotton), Yeast Extract, Cultured Dextrose, Food Starch Modified, Soy Leghemoglobin, Salt, Soy Protein Isolate, Mixed Tocopherols (Vitamin E), Zinc Gluconate, Thiamine Hydrochloride (Vitamin B1), Sodium Ascorbate (Vitamin C), Niacin, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (Vitamin B6), Riboflavin (Vitamin B2), Vitamin B12.

Soy, sugar, and cotton are commonly sprayed with glyphosate herbicides as a drying agent before harvesting. The “natural” product - which could contain more than 80% GMO ingredients- also contains potatoes, which may be genetically modified, and could also absorb the chemical through the soil after pre-planting herbicide applications. Glyphosate does not wash, dry, or cook-off and was listed on the Prop 65 California EPA list of carcinogens in 2017.

Glyphosate herbicides have not only been proven to be carcinogenic, but they are also neurotoxic, endocrine disrupting, cause DNA damage and liver disease at ultra-low levels, lower than what was found in the Impossible Burger.

According to the American Liver Foundation over 100 million people in America, (that’s about 1/3 of Americans) are estimated to have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

グリホサート除草剤は、動物飼料にも広く散布されています。 動物の健康を害する、 したがって、インポッシブルバーガーやその他の非有機製品を消費することによってこの除草剤の使用をサポートすることも、動物福祉の問題です。

グリホサートとGMOが製品に与える影響はもはや無視できません。 Honeycutt氏は、次のように考えています。有毒なグリホサート系除草剤に一般の人々をさらし続けるのは小売業者や食品ブランドになるのだろうか。」

Moms Across America calls upon consumers to ask their restaurant and grocery stores not to sell this product and to sell/buy/eat whole, organic, plant-based, real food instead. They also request public comments be made to the EPA to cancel the license for glyphosate. Glyphosate herbicides have been severely restricted or banned in 34 countries.
