The food you are eating is killing you. These foods are genetically enhanced to make them last longer taste better‚ and shield themselves from pests and weeds. Genetically modified foods are in everything‚ you ate them for breakfast and you will eat them for lunch. You need to learn about these foods to save your family and friends from the terrible effects of these foods. You will learn what these foods are‚ the bad effects of them‚ and what will happen if we don’t take action and put an end to

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

The Arguments for and against using genetically modified organisms in food production "Biotechnology involves any technique that uses living organisms or parts there of to make or modify products‚ to improve plants or animals or to develop micro organisms for specific uses" (Dr Sriwatanapongse‚ www.afic.org) In the past century we’ve have been lucky enough to stumble upon one of the basic building blocks of organisms‚ DNA. In recent years scientists have been able to develop ways in which

The Hazardous Consequences of Genetically Modified Foods James P Collins 9/30/2013 CS 300T Professor Hui Shi Table of Contents Introduction………………………………………………………………………………….. 3 While technology is responsible for some of the most innovative and ingenious inventions of our time‚ not all technologies contribute positively to society. Genetically Modified Foods are an example of a negative use of technology. Due to insufficient scientific data concerning the safety of these products‚ and

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

The Dangers of Genetically Modified Foods Despite the recent surge in media coverage regarding genetically modified foods (GM foods) many Americans are unaware of what these foods are‚ or the possible benefits and dangers associated with them. Sometimes referred to as agricultural biotechnology; genetic modifying means that the DNA of food has been altered in some way at a cellular level. Scientists have learned that by inserting the genetic information from one organism into another they can

Genetic Modified food: Benefit or Detriment? The most wonderful activity a human being can experience is new flavors and foods. For example‚ the first time a person tastes a delicious juicy piece of prime rib or a delightful hamburger with cheese and ham‚ his world is never the same. However‚ since the beginning of the twentieth century‚ the production of food has been supplemented by science. This has triggered an angry dispute between the people who support the advances of biotechnology and

GMOs are genetically modified organisms‚ in short. To expand‚ these organisms have had their genetic material (legitimately‚ pieces of their DNA) altered to a point that is a polar opposite of what would naturally occur in nature if it had not been used for this purpose. This act of altering DNA occurs in a laboratory‚ performed by genetic engineers. These said engineers take the organism in which they would like to alter and insert one (or more‚ in some cases) new pieces of DNA into the desired
