RE: GMO food isn't going to make your food allergies worse, but could make them better.

in #steemstem6 years ago

Nice post with pictures and all.
For me the bottom line is what are they modifying the plants to be?
One answer is presently they are being modified to survive specific herbacides. This means the crops can be doused with said herbacides.
So is my "food allergy" due to genetic manipulation of crops, or is it that I am simply having adverse reactions to the herbacides. Through my own emperical data, and after a years worth of visits to a dozen medical professionals and specialists, including several severely invasive diagnostic procedures, I found it to be the latter.
I do not pretend to know how to gmo a plant or animal, so i have to rely on peer reviewed data. Right now, there isn't enough independent research proving anything but what big ag and their money want us to believe. So i dont trust any of it. For me the test is, does it make me ill. And for all processed and gmo'd food, the answer is yes.
Since changing my diet to exclude all this "safe foods" I have regained my health, better than ever.
I think ultimately we will master gmo, but until then I am opting out of being a ginea pig.

Impressive to this this type of comment from a new user.
I commented before with a link to my own article if you want to learn more about GMO's.
The science I stumbled across said that there are only very small trace amounts of herbicides in the edible plant and that this should not be a problem, but of course I can't rule this out.
Basically your idea is what the European Union is trying, to prolong the ban until we know for sure that it is good or not.
Cheers!
