Genetically engineered foods (also called genetically modified organisms or GMOs) are not bad for your health. A lot of people are leery of GMO safety, but in reality, they’ve been around for a long time, and they’re heavily researched.GMO foods may offer several advantages to the grower and consumer. For starters, many GMO crops have been genetically modified to express a gene that protects them against pests and insects.
For.They say GM foods could cause major health problems like tumors, liver toxicity, allergic reactions, and death. So it’s no surprise that over half of the U.S. public said genetically modified foods are unsafe to eat in a recent survey from Pew Research Center. One-quarter of those surveyed said they check product labels for GMOs every single time they shop.
The use of GMO foods remains controversial. In this article, we discuss the pros and cons of growing and eating genetically modified organisms, including the effects on human health and the.According to Myrdal Miller, “Genetically modified organisms are neither good nor bad. They give farmers options for dealing with insects, weeds, bacteria and other ‘pests’ that can decrease crop.Removing or reducing GMO foods from your diet may offer serious improvements in digestive issues, energy levels, weight, food allergies or sensitivities, anxiety and depression, and other chronic health conditions, according to a new peer-reviewed article published in the International Journal of Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine.
Here’s The Real Reason Why GMOs Are Bad, And Why They May Save Humanity technology behind GMO crops. Genetically modified foods may someday provide integral assistance to allow humans to.Those against them say eating foods made from GMOs is bad for you. Those in favor argue that you’re way better off from the benefits that GMOs.Six Potential Human Health Concerns Genetically engineered foods are different from other foods.
Genetic engineering allows, for the first time, foreign genes, bacterial and viral vectors, viral promoters and antibiotic marker systems to be engineered into food.Genetically modified organisms, commonly known as GMOs, are found in a huge variety of food products from baby food to fruit juice and many believe they are dangerous to your health. If you’re struggling to make an informed choice about whether or not GMOs are bad, learn what the evidence shows to help you make your decision.Perhaps people away from the farm gate believe GMOs are harmful to their health because they haven’t been given sufficient information about them. A GMO is short for genetically modified organism.
Genetically modified (GM) foods are derived from organisms whose genetic material (DNA) have been modified to possess a gene from a different organism.In addition, over the two decades that GMOs have been on the market, there have been no occurrences of health issues due to genetically modified organisms. As GMOs stand today, there are no health benefits to eating them over non-GMO foods. However, this may change in the future as technology develops and becomes more sophisticated.
Despite popular misinformation, there’s actually no nutritional difference between GMOs and their non-GMO counterparts and scientific evidence through extensive testing supports GMOs are safe to eat. The only exception to a difference in nutritional value is if it has been changed intentionally – in high oleic soybeans, for example.Which foods might contain GMOs? Most packaged foods contain ingredients derived from corn, soy, canola, and sugar beet — and the vast majority of those crops grown in North America are genetically modified.

A new report claims that genetically modified foods (or organisms) can damage your health and even cause cancer, but some experts say they’re an inexpensive and healthy way to put dinner on your table. We’re going to be discussing both sides of the issue on our show today.

The insinuated safety by only adding ‘one or two’ genes is un-scientific:
Ethanol: Drunk. Methanol: Blind / Dead. (1 molecule difference).
O2, oxygen: Life. O3, ozone: Death (1 atom difference).
H2O: Life H30: Death (1 proton difference) C’mon Prof……small changes can make HUGE differences.
The title scientist doesn’t mean u know truth….& many studies are false/paid for
I don’t know what’s wrong with gmo someone please tell me why
This https://responsibletechnology.org/ information will help those of us that do not want to be a walking experiment, I believe tax https://youtu.be/V5K2fDHX9QQ payers money can be used in a more intelligent https://www.thevenusproject.com/ manner.
If your research is funded by big pharma GMOs are always safe, if you are funded by non-pharma GMOs are always very risky. Now who has more money? In 2002 it was reported the top 10 pharmaceutical comany listed in fortune 500 were more profitable than the rest combined, (that changed after 2002 because oil companies wanted more action) now you can see the scale of the influence big pharmas have.
People Strongly Against GMOs Had Shakier Understanding Of Food Science, Study Finds Jan 26, 2019 “People who most intensely oppose genetically modified food think they know a lot about food science, but they actually know the least, according to a peer-reviewed paper published in January in the journal Nature Human Behaviour.
GMOs are widely considered safe by scientists, but opponents have said they want more science on the potential harm so that subjective arguments aren’t part of the equation. However, previous surveys have shown that providing more scientific facts about GMOs to people doesn’t change their minds.
The survey, conducted by four universities, asked 2,000 people in Europe and the United States how much they knew about genetically modified food, what their opinion was and how intense it was.” Read the full coverage at: https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2019/01/26/687852367/people-strongly-against-gmos-had-shakier-understanding-of-food-science-study-fin
Video: Where did the infamous needle-in-a-tomato anti-GMO image come from? geneticliteracyproject.org/2019/04/25/video-where-did-the-infamous-needle-in-a-tomato-anti-gmo-image-come-from/
Organic industry tyranny for 32 years and counting: “Although GMOs are regarded as safe as their conventional counterparts by every major food safety authority in the world, the organic industry spends nearly $3 billion a year through over 330 different organizations leading with fear and “information spin” as an industry to sell their products. By creating an unfounded fear that requires tighter regulations on GMO crops, they are hoping to force them out of the food supply, thereby creating a bigger market share to sell more products in their more than $65 billion wheelhouse.
The unfortunate consequence of these [non-GMO] labels is that the food companies and lobbyists tend to create an unnecessary “us vs. them” divide. When food companies use fear against competitors to sell a product, farmers take it personally.”

Now why do you suppose organic food is so expensive?? Imagine what 3 billion dollars could do for humanitarian goals end a different disease forever every year…. End all hunger in at least one country…… Funding nasty propaganda? Really??
they are also killing the bees, hen a bee pollinates a GMO plant it dies
When they start to compare gene editing with human selection I know they are dishonest… Also, portraying the opposite side as a bunch of uneducated nobodies that for some ancestral fear do not trust GMOs, while the 100% of “generic scientists” has no doubt, it’s even shadier. Long term effects are not easy to link to a single cause and we might even miss the expertise. Patented seed proliferation, and stronger resistance by common threats are already an issue, not some future possibility. If gene editing was such a sure and fully developed technique we would already have a cure for cancer. Sorry “dead stare reading an ad script” Jim, I’m not convinced
How much do we know about the natural world? We allegedly have “junk DNA” that “does nothing”. This is the state of science now.
please GMO all you want. i just do not trust the monsanto’s modus operandi ( come at me bro ).
its like starbucks opening across the street of a mom and pop coffee house.
but then again, what do i know, i am the kind of idiot that eats an apple and then plants it seeds.
Wow, this talking head. If a company has already shown it’s negligence through it’s major product that causes a terrible disease (cancer) why on Earth would you think any other related products are safe either in the short or long-term?
If GMO s are so safe, why were farmers who didn’t want to use them sued by Monsanto?
Privileged whites telling working class whites there Privileged
I’m doing a project on GMO’s.i have to find a problem and a solution. i am confused:[ after reading these comments i cant decide whether gmos are good or bad:{
theres a reason other countries don’t take gmo crops…….same with why they don’t fluoridate water…….wake up people and research it.
“We’ve seen no adverse health effect on people…”
So, a virtual explosion of obesity is not a problem? Or depression, IQ no longer rising, infant mortality rising instead…
once you put these things into the environment you can take them back.
The thumbnail is reported to Youtube as misleading. No GMO food has ever been injected by needles! The seed process is done in laboratories under extremely powerful microscopes. ULTIMATE IRONY Organic farmers DO use needles to inject the Bt toxin into the bases of their larger plants. I want to see organic farming videos with that image as an accurate honest revelation.
There needs to be Lables on GMO food so I can decide for myself.
Hybrid and GMO is not the same at all.
HEALTHY DEBATE: He said less pesticides? There are pesticides genetically modified in your crops that’s why the bees are dying just to let u know the second they try to pollinate on these crops they die. Monsanto who is the monopolizer of gmos sprayed chemical weapons in Vietnam during the Vietnam war (agent Orange) people have genetic problems to this day because of them. Eat organic food for a month then tell me how u feel. Gmos is eugenics you literally are what you eat. U can’t tell me the chicken they give us is healthy and our lettuce aren’t riddled with toxins incoded in it’s DNA. Also those studies are funded by the same corporation they can just keep repeating trials till they get the results they wanted to to tell you. Gmos are illegal in Europe who is this guy tryna trick y’all? Smh it’s either he’s brain dead or is trying to manipulate u.
If it is not necessary then why would it exist? I we have a certain food demand and you make x amount of land yield more food you use less land. Or you could use more land and make less food per amount of land. If I am wrong please let me know. Cause if a farmer could choose not to use all of this pesticides then they would but they use it because overall it is more profitable.
how will you reconcile the advantages and disadvantages that GMO brings to human?
So, you’re comparing a bunch of disinterested, ignorant idiots, to a bunch of interested, ignorant idiots? What the hell does a physicist know about GMOs? Of course, a bunch of people will gladly triumph these sort of causes, just to make themselves look enlightened.
GMO use should increase further, so the tests can be run on a larger scale. Not too much tough, since we’re not sure if the’re susceptible to certain diseases or the like. And if they are, a bunch of genetically similar crops means a crop epidemic.
this video was so funny, I loved it!!! I hope he’s not being serious lol
Gmo coud be good if done right! Problems is that is made or involved by companies like Monsanto,Bayer and Big pharma who are known legal genocides againts humanity.So for me, eating gmo at this day and age, is not safe and it will most probably never will do to tight personal ceos and governmental interests.
Are GMO’s safe? In theory.
Are they safe in practice when applied by unregulated, immoral, profiteering, monstrous corporations? No.
There’s a lot of unnatural disease in human and domestic animals that been are out of control since the early 90’s
Hey ARS technica, If you want to show gmos accurately, drop the syringes.
Yeah thats why cancer is on the rise. GMO food + Pesticides is a great “value” pack.
This video would have been OK if it was just audio, but the images were absurd. How many times did we see syringes injecting plants? No guys, it’s not done that way.
