Many qualified scientists and researchers have concluded that GMO food is
not safe.
The FDA does not test, and leaves the testing to the bio-tech companies to
do their own testing. Does this sound biased?
I do not believe an industry that produces terminator seeds and controls 60%
of the food seed in the world is to be trusted.
Many countries around the world have banned GMO products.
Unbiased studies have shown toxins, allergens, side-effects, along with
nutritional problems, gut functions, degraded immune systems, and other
problems related to GM and GMO engineering.
I recommend the book "GENETIC ROULETTE — THE DOCUMENTED
HEALTH RISKS FOR GENETICALLY ENGINEERED FOODS" by
Jeffery M. Smith for the real information on GMO.
Bio-tech companies say GMO is safe. If that is so, why is there so much
resistance to GMO labeling?
Let the free market work. People should be able to choose the food they
want.
