Week 6 discussion
GM Foods
There is a growing trend in the United States for food
companies to have their foods be verified to contain no GM (genetically
modified) products or ingredients due to consumer demand. Research the use of
GM foods and plants within our food supply, including their pros and cons,
primary use and any possible health issues related to them. Are there
advantages to the use of GM foods? Is there justifiable fear to consuming GM
foods/ingredients within our diets or are consumers overreacting? Why or why
not? Are organic foods more nutritious and safer compared to GM foods? Why or
why not? After your research, will you change your dietary and food purchasing
choices?
