Impacts of GMO on your health

  • The Non-GMO Project also considers livestock, apiculture, and aquaculture products at high risk because genetically engineered ingredients are common in animal feed. This impacts animal-derived products such as eggs, milk, meat, honey, and seafood.

  • GMOs also sneak into food in the form of processed crop derivatives and inputs derived from other forms of genetic engineering, such as synthetic biology. Some examples include hydrolyzed vegetable protein, corn syrup, molasses, sucrose, textured vegetable protein, flavorings, vitamins, yeast products, flavors, proteins, sweeteners, microbes, enzymes, oils and fats.

  • Harm to human or animal health:

  • Toxicological effects;

  • Allergenicity;

  • Changes in nutritional value;

  • Transfer of antibiotic resistance.

  • GMO foods have less nutritional values as well

Worst finding of all — GMOs remain inside of us

The only published human feeding study revealed what may be the most dangerous problem from GM foods. The gene inserted into GM soy transfers into the DNA of bacteria living inside our intestines and continues to function. This means that long after we stop eating GMOs, we may still have potentially harmful GM proteins produced continuously inside of us. Put more plainly, eating a corn chip produced from Bt corn might transform our intestinal bacteria into living pesticide factories, possibly for the rest of our lives.

Pregnant women and babies at great risk

Reproductive problems also plague livestock. Investigations in the state of Haryana, India revealed that most buffalo that ate GM cottonseed had complications such as premature deliveries, abortions, infertility, and prolapsed uteruses. Many calves died. In the US, about two dozen farmers reported thousands of pigs became sterile after consuming certain GM corn varieties. Some had false pregnancies; others gave birth to bags of water. Cows and bulls also became infertile when fed the same corn.

In the US population, the incidence of low birth weight babies, infertility, and infant mortality are all escalating.

Conclusion From research :

From the research I have concluded that foods that contain GMO have a harmful impact on human health. Research has been done that proves that GMO products have a huge impact on birth rates and defects on births. GMO products have also been ignored to be harmful and it seems that research has been dismissed and I feel like the government has been trying to almost ignore the harmful affects so that the mass market can make an easy dollar on uneducated people.
