A new study done by Russian scientists suggests that Genetically Modified Food may cause long term sterility, that is, sterility in second and third generations. The scientists used hamsters for this
research and divided them into groups. One group of hamsters was fed a
normal diet without any soy products, a second group was fed non-GMO
(genetically modified organism) soy, the third ate GM soy and the
fourth group was fed an even higher amount of GM soy than the third.

Each group produced about seven to eight litters of baby hamsters each without any problems. But when the researchers selected new breeding pairs from the offspring, the second generation had a slower
growth rate and reached their sexual maturity later than normal. They
also had a mortality rate, five times higher than the hamsters who
didn’t eat soy. Even more shocking was the fact that nearly all of the
third generation GM soy eating hamsters were sterile and also
experienced hair growing inside their mouths.

Genetically modified food has received much criticism earlier too, with studies linking them to problems with birth weight and infant mortality.
