Is gmo corn/food bad or is it perfectly safe? I can see many conflicting opinions.
Formulators/labelling specialists, you probably already know about the new food labelling rules for genetically modified foods that are being enforced from 1st Jan in USA. The new rules provide a national standard for dealing with genetically modified foods in place of the various state-by-state rules.
But you maybe haven't found this yet (it's kind of fun to play around with). Just wanted to share it!
The USDA has created an interactive decision tree quiz/tool to help food businesses know whether their foods need to be labelled as Bioengineered: https://www.ams.usda.gov/rules-regulations/be/zingtree
Hello,
I just wanted to make a quick post to see if anyone had made similar observation or could possibly shed some insight on my situation.
I'm from Quebec, Canada. I have severe food allergies that I managed to understand and control over the years. To make the story short, I have problem mostly with dairy, soy, transformed wheat, animal products, and overall sugary and processed foods... Over time I started to see a correlation with GMO fed animals products and GMO grains. It is really hard to trace what the animals you eat are being fed, but I kind of assume its the cheapest Monsanto GMO grain stuff. All these food used to bloat me really bad, give me breakout of acne... ended up giving me leaky gut and a thyroid autoimmune problem...
Now I'm currently in the UK for vacation and I've been cheating on my diet for literally 3 weeks straight. Eating almost anything... take outs, "Chippies, Kebabs..Chinese.." lots of meats, bread, even some KFC, etc. I'm still somewhat careful and haven't tried any dairy or sugary stuff, but I noticed that I do not get any breakouts or bloat from the food here...
I did a bit of googling and found out that GMOs are almost non existant in UK/Euro...
And now I'm kind of puzzled; I'm wondering if the majority of my problems in Canada are coming from GMOs and from the grains they feed to the animals. (which mess up their fat levels...)
My diet in Canada has really been a struggle for the past 2 years. To the point where I've gone almost fully vegan and only eat fresh vegetables and fish...
I would love to hear anyone's opinion on this and personal observations.
Thanks!
Been seeing a lot of polls in this community lately so decided to make one of my own. What do you think about the safety of eating genetically modified food?
