우리가 유전자 변형 옥수수와 메주콩을 많이 수입하는 나라랍니다.
그러고 보니, 근래 들어 자살이 부짝 많아 지고 자페증도 많아 지고
치매, 기억 상실증, 우울증 등등 에전에 잘 볼수 없었던 좀 이상한 현상이 GMO (유전자 변형 식품)
섭취하고 연관이 있는 것 아닌가 싶어서 다시 번역을 합니다.

The endocrine disrupting properties of glyphosate can lead to neurological disorders (신경 부조화 (LD), 주의력 산만 (ADHD), 자폐증, 건망증, 치매, schizophrenia 과대망상 and bipolar disorder, 조울증). 글리포세이트 의 비정상적 영향이 위에 병들을 만든답니다.
Those most susceptible are children and the elderly. (어린애와 노인에게 잘 걸린다)
Glyphosate was first marketed in 1976 and its use has exploded since the advent of glyphosate
resistant, genetically engineered (GE) crops in 1995. (1976년에 처음 팔리기 시작해서 그리포세이트에 저항성을 가지는 유전자 변형 식물이 나오는 1995년에 수요가 폭발적으로 늘어 납니다.)
The herbicide-resistant GE crops absorb glyphosate through direct application
and from the soil and it cannot be washed off. It is in the food. (제초제에 저항성을 가지는 식물이 직접적으로, 혹은 토양에서 글리포세이트를 흡수하면, 씯어낼 수가 없어서 음식안에 있게됩니다)
Glyphosate has also been found in rivers, streams, air and rain. (글리포세이트-제초제-는 강, 개울, 공기, 비 속에 발견됩니다.)
The thyroid is an endocrine organ that secretes the thyroid hormone.(갑상선은 홀몬을 생산하는 기관입니다)
Thyroid dysfunction has been identified with mood disorders. (갑상선 기능 저하는 기분 부조화를 부른다고 합니다.)
Depression is frequently associated with low levels of thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism),
우울증은 갑상선 홀몬 이 적을 때..
while mood elevation is often associated with high levels of thyroid hormone (hyperthyroidism).
조증(좋아 자들치는 것)은 홀몬이 많을때
An endocrine disrupting chemical (EDC) can cause erratic behavior.(이상한 행동도 보이고)
Recent studies have shown links between food additives and neurotoxicity in cells
and hyperactive behavior in children. (최근 연구에 따르면 식품 첨가제와 애들에게 나타나는 극단적
활발성과 연관이 있다고 합니다.)
Incidents have been reported of laboratory rats and farm animals exhibiting uncharacteristic
aggressive and anti-social behavior on being fed a diet consisting of GMO soy or corn.
(무차별적 공격성, 반사회적 행동양식을 GMO 콩, 옥수수를 먹은 쥐들이 보입니다.)
Many scientific studies have shown links between thyroid disruption and neurological diseases. “Thyroid hormones are critical for development of the fetal and neonatal brain, as well as for many other aspects of pregnancy and fetal growth. (과학적 연구는 갑상선 기능 부조화가 신경계통 질병하고 관련이 있다는 것을 보여줍니다)
Hypothyroidism in either the mother or fetus frequently results in fetal disease; in humans,
this includes a high incidence of mental retardation. … numerous studies with rats, sheep
and humans have reinforced this concept…” According to de Cock et al,
(연구진들에 의하면. 갑상선 항진증은 - 엄마나 태아에게 태내 병을 만드는데, 정신 지진의 높은 빈도를 포함한답니다.)
“Perinatal exposure to EDCs appears to be associated with the occurrence of ASD
[autism spectrum disorder] as well as ADHD. (출생시에 EDC에 노출 되면 자폐증, 그리고 극단 활발증을 나타냅니다)
Disruption of thyroid hormone function … may offer an explanation for the observed relations….”
MacSweeney et al. report, “that the mothers of 104 schizophrenic patients had:
(갑상선 부조화---104명의 과대망상증 환자의 엄마는
(1) a significantly higher incidence of thyroid disease than a carefully matched control group;
갑상성 질환을 가질 확울이 대단히 높습니다.
(2) significantly more abortions, still-births and greater infant mortality.
많은 유산- 사산, 높은 유아 사망율을 보입니다.
The findings and possible relevance of thyroid disease to schizophrenia are discussed.
” Strong correlation was shown between cancer of the thyroid and glyphosate use on corn
and soy crops and that thyroid cancer affects women more than men. (갑상선 암)
It seems that women are more sensitive to thyroid disruption.
The incidence and prevalence for neurological disorders have been skyrocketing.
Data trends over time for neurological disorders are not readily available for two reasons:
they are not as well-studied as other diseases (cancer, diabetes etc.), and the diagnostic
methods keep changing.
The experts argue over whether the increases are real, or a by-product of changes in
diagnostics along with greater attention given to these disorders in recent times.
For example, a former diagnosis of mental retardation might now result in a diagnosis of autism.
Furthermore there is a large degree of overlap in symptoms.
Typical manifestations of ADHD, such as distractibility or hyperactivity are also present
in pediatric bipolar disorder, for example.
Children
ADHD
According to the New York Times, “an estimated 6.4 million children ages 4 through 17 had
received an A.D.H.D. diagnosis at some point in their lives, a 16 percent increase since 2007
and a 41 percent rise in the past decade.”
From the Center for Disease Control (CDC), “rates of ADHD diagnosis increased an average
of 3 % per year from 1997 to 2006 and an average of 5.5% per year from 2003 to 2007.
… It is not possible to tell whether this increase represents a change in the number of children
who have ADHD, or a change in the number of children who were diagnosed.”
It also makes a great deal of difference who is doing the reporting: parents or doctors.
The disorder affects boys more than girls.
Whatever the numbers, there seems to be an increasing behavioral problem with our youth.
Our solution is to give them more chemicals in the form of mood-altering drugs.
Bipolar
According to a 2007 report by Moreno et al., “the annual number of office-based visits with
a diagnosis of bipolar disorder(조울증? 한국에 자살 엄청 많은 것?) was estimated to increase in
youth(젊은 층) from 25 (1994-1995) to 1003 (2002-2003) per 100,000 population, whereas in adults
it increased from 905 (1994-1995) to 1679 (2002-2003) per 100,000 population. … most youth bipolar disorder visits were by males (젊은 남성) (66.5%), whereas most adult bipolar disorder visits were by females(노인 여성) (67.6%).”
Autism (자폐)
The number of autistic children has exploded during the last decade, and some are calling it
an epidemic. (아이들에게 자폐증은 가히 창궐 수준)
There is great controversy over what is causing this and whether all of it is real.
“But many researchers now say that at least part of the rise in autism is real and caused by
something in the environment.
Rather than quibbling over recounts they are focusing on finding the causes.”
It was shown in previous articles that there has been a huge increase in the amount of
glyphosates applied to corn and soy crops grown in the U.S. corresponding to the
rise in the percentage of corn and soy planted with genetically engineered (GE) varieties.
Those data represent only a portion of the total GE crops and amount of glyphosates applied.
The USDA only collects data on GE crops for corn, cotton and soy.
Since most of the corn (88%) and soy (94%) planted now is GE, these data give a representation
of the rising trends in both GE crops and herbicide use.
The amount of glyphosate applied to U.S. corn and soy crops is plotted against the prevalence of autism in the graph below.
The prevalence of autism was difficult to find and the values shown on this graph came from many sources using different methods and different age groups.
A better estimate was obtained from the U.S. Department of Education, which keeps track of school age children receiving services under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
A second plot is shown using data from USDE for the number of autistic children receiving
services.
The correlation is quite strong which may indicate that glyphosate is a contributing factor in the rise of autism
Elderly
The elderly are susceptible because they may already have a great body burden of chemical
exposure over their lifetime and because some of their body processes are shutting down and
hormonal disruptions can have a much greater effect on them.
According to the University of Washington Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation,
Alzheimer’s disease (치매) went from number 32 in 1990 to number nine in 2010 in the ranking
of leading causes of death in the U.S.
Senile Dementia (노망)and it’s care costs have also skyrocketed in the last two decades.
Prevalence and incidence data were sparse, but data on death rates were available from 1979.
Graphs of the death rates for Alzheimer’s (치매), Parkinson’s disease(수전증) and Senile Dementia(노망) have been plotted against glyphosate applications to U.S. corn and soy crops.
Again, the correlations are quite strong. Deaths due to Alzheimer’s have been rising since 1980, but there is a sharp spike in 1999.
Correlation does not necessarily imply causation and there are now a host of chemicals in
our food and our environment.
The huge increase in the amount of glyphosate applied to GE food and feed crops has
significantly increased our exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals.
In a previous article, correlations were shown between glyphosate use, GMO crop increase
and: thyroid cancer, liver cancer, obesity, high blood pressure, acute kidney injury, incidence
and prevalence of diabetes and end stage renal disease. (유전자 변형 식물이 갑상선 암, 간 암, 비만,
고혈압, 급성 신장 부상, 그리고 당뇨 빈발, 말기 신부전증을 증가시킨다)
All of these diseases and disorders were carefully chosen based on:
1 Glyphosate is a known endocrine disruptor.
2. Endocrine disruptors can cause organ and neurological damage.
3. Roundup™ and GMOs have shown liver and kidney damage and abnormal behavior in rat
studies.
4. Use of glyphosate on herbicide-resistant crops has skyrocketed since 1995.
5. Incidence, prevalence and deaths due to these diseases has also skyrocketed since 1995.
It seems improbable that the correlations in the nine graphs of glyphosates and organ disease,
and the three presented here (for a total of 12), can all be coincidence.
There has been a trend among the agricultural and food industries and their regulators to engage in practices that place the consumers at risk, emerging in the mid-1990s and growing. I
t involves not just GMOs but many other things as well and those factors may may be correlated
with each other.
That may make it impossible to separate out which one caused a particular effect.
Much more research needs to be done.
Our children are disturbed and our elders are dying horribly.
Notes:
In 2006 Irena Ermakova reported to the European Congress of Psychiatry that, “As in previous
series the behavior of males from GM group was compared with the behavior of control rats.
Obtained data showed a high level of anxiety and aggression in males, females and young pups
from GM groups.
Aggression was more expressed in females and rat pups: they attacked and bite each other
and the worker.” 14th European Congress of Psychiatry, Nice, France, Sunday, March 5 2006,
Poster #048.
Numerous anecdotal reports of animals on GMO diets behaving aggressively and anti-socially
have been reported by farmers and veterinarians.
In 2010 Shelton et al. published a paper describing potential mechanisms linking pesticides
and autism.
In 2006, Grandjean and Landrigan reported on developmental neurotoxicity of industrial chemicals. “Neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism, attention deficit disorder, mental retardation, and cerebral palsy are common, costly, and can cause lifelong disability. …
Exposure to these chemicals during early fetal development can cause brain injury at doses
much lower than those affecting adult brain function.”
