Many people consume engineered foods; particularly the North America and China. GMFs (Genetically Modified Food) have faced strong opposition. The anti-GMFs argue that modification of original organism composition does not improve the current status of the organisms. However‚ it generates dangerous side effects and yields toxic substances that could result in allergies‚ stomach problems‚ diseases and economic and environmental fears. People concern on the safety of food became pronounced before

April 2012 Genetically Modified Food: World Wide Panacea or “Frankenfood” to Fear? Never before in history has mankind so masterfully commanded its food chain. Thousands of years ago‚ much of our species made the leap from a hunter-gatherer level of subsistence to an agricultural society. With agriculture‚ slowly but surely many modifications were made to plants and animals used and domesticated by us for the purpose of feeding ourselves. New specialized varieties with specific desirable traits

Genetically Modified Foods: a Growing Concern? Living in America‚ we sometimes forget what a huge problem malnutrition and starvation are in other parts of the world. It ’s estimated that over 852 million people in the world are severely food deprived. Now‚ imagine a world where no one goes hungry‚ a farmer ’s crop can survive a long drought or an early frost and still produce a large harvest‚ and harmful insects and weeds cannot survive in the same field as a crop. Imagine a world where malnutrition

Examples of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO)e’ Many of our common crops‚ such as corn‚ canola‚ potatoes‚ tomatoes‚ squash‚ and soybeans‚ are genetically modified. The majority of these crops were herbicide-resistant as well as insect-resistant‚ while the others may contain increased nutrients such as vitamins‚ produce yield earlier‚ or are able to survive weather extremes. Genetically modified tomatoes were introduced to the market in 1994‚ becoming the first commercially grown transgenic crop

How would you feel if I told you that the food you’re eating was made in a science lab? Genetically modified organisms‚ or GMOs‚ are the outcome of a laboratory process where genes from the DNA of one species are extracted and artificially manipulated into the genes of an uncorrelated plant or animal. Crops are often genetically modified to be resistant to pesticides so farmers would be able to spray them without harming the crop itself. However‚ there are many consequences regarding consumers’

Genetically modified (GM) foods‚ a fairly recent development that came about from research in genetic engineering‚ pose a potential threat to human and environmental health. The basis of genetically modifying foods is the transferal of desirable genetic traits of plants to an agricultural crop. Genetic modification creates crops that are resistant to herbicides or can repel insects. Genetic modification also makes growing crops easier and allows for higher production rates.
