GMOs - everything you need to know

GMO - everything you need to know The Non-GMO label (genetically modified organisms (GMOs) is thrown around on foods where it doesn’t even matters. There are two main concerns for consumers with GMOs. Most are genetically modified to be resistant to synthetic pesticides, like glyphosate - for example Roundup ready corn. Leaving you with residue on your food. And, there are some concerned that ‘playing god’ and mixing different organisms in an unnatural way can create something brand new that our body was not designed to handle. All GMOs go through rigorous testing to ensure they’re safe for consumption- however, some concerns about long-term effects remain, as the research in this area is still evolving. Here’s what you need to know to not get tricked. There are 13 GMO crops currently: corn soybeans cotton canola sugar beets alfalfa papaya squash potatoes apples pink pineapples safflower sugarcane Everything else that you see the Non-GMO label, is pure marketing. For these, if you’re getting Non-GMO that are NOT also certified organic you might still be exposed to synthetic pesticides. The organic certification is much stronger- it guarantees you’re getting a Non-GMO product, even if it doesn’t have the Non-GMO label, AND it guarantees that no synthetic pesticides were ever used.
