Warning: Genetically Modified Foods

 

Genetically Modified Foods (GMO)

Genetically modified or genetically engineered fruits and vegetables grown for human consumption are big business on an insidious worldwide scale. Backers of genetic modification believe it to be the only viable way to feed a growing global population without depleting natural resources. Critics of GM farming— and I am one of them—consider it eco-tampering and a threat to biodiversity. There very well could be a rise in allergic reactions to foods as well as more use of chemicals, causing a less healthy situation.

 Read a very interesting article by Nutrition Therapist, Daniella Chase on this subject.
 We need to be aware of how industry is changing our foods.  Be informed.  Knowledge is GOOD!

Have a Healthy Day!
