Negative Effects of GM Foods

Not too long ago there was a battle in California so that Proposition 37 would get passed. What would the proposition have done? Prop. 37 was part of a fight for GMO labeling is far from over. The fight was not able to be won, as CA Prop 37 was defeated. 

Now, what is behind all of this Modified Genetic foods? Well, what is behind GMO foods can be quite scary as these foods can be allergenic, toxic, carcinogenic, and anti-nutritional.

In fact, there are studies that have shown that genetically modified peas can cause lung damage in mice, genetically modified potatoes can cause cancer in rats, and that bacteria in your gut can take up DNA from genetically modified foods.

Evidence is quickly accumulating that eating genetically modified foods may cause disease, may cause infertility or may hurt newborns. Furthermore, GM corn can contain a toxic pesticide in every cell. 

Furthermore, Genetically modified foods can cause allergies. In fact, in the UK, shortly after GM soy was introduced, the cases of soy allergies increased by 50%.

Another problem with GMOs is that they can have higher residues of poisonous herbicide. GMO foods are designed to take in more poison.
