#GeneticallyModifiedOrganism (also called #GMO) are genetically modified organism such as plant, animals or microbes whose #DNA has been #altered using #GeneticEngineering. #GeneticallyModifiedFoods are made by inserting genes of other species into their DNA. This kind of genetic modification is used both in plants & animals. However #GM foods can have harmful effects on the human body & consumption of these #GeneticallyEngineeredFoods can cause allergic reactions plus the development of diseases which are resistant to antibiotics. Organic food or conventional #nonGMO foods are better & free from toxicity #InGodWeBelieve #DrZaibKhan February 23, 2022 https://www.instagram.com/p/CaVBUKUjnKP/?utm_medium=tumblr

In 1996, when Monsanto began selling Roundup Ready soybeans, only 2% of soybeans in the U.S. contained their patented gene. 🤔 By 2008, over 90% of soybeans in the U.S. contained Monsanto’s patented gene.😞 There’s a chemical in RoundUp herbicide called glyphosate which destroys the bacteria in your gut. Without healthy gut bacteria you can’t produce tryptophan. 😳 Without tryptophan, your body doesn't produce serotonin. 😕 Without serotonin, you can’t regulate blood sugar. 😱 Diabetes is largely on the rise and cost our federal government over $279 Billion a year. Every bite you take either fights disease or feeds it. 🍽 Vote with your dollar and choose Non-GMO verified foods!🚫💉🌽🍅 ___________________________ #TropicalSmoothieGuy #Glyphosate #RoundUp #RoundUpReady #WeedKiller #RoundUpWeedKiller #NonGMO #GMO #GeneticallyModifiedFoods #GeneticallyModified #Tryptophan #Serotonin #BloodSugar #Diabetes (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/BJg2G3ghMiq/?igshid=mfom0bus67ea

Malnourishment, GMOs and The Golden Rice Project.
Affecting hundreds of millions of people per year (but predominantly pregnant women and children), malnutrition remains a major public health issue in developing countries. Malnutrition is a condition which may cause a heightened susceptibility to disease, impediment in growth and development in children, and in the case of millions of people per year, death. All of that, along with a multitude of other health issues. So what exactly is malnourishment? Malnourishment can be summed up as the deficiency in a diet of certain essential nutrients. And while malnourishment can mean that a person eats too much of one type of food, we will instead focus on the under-nutritional side of malnutrition, that is when a person does not consume enough nutrients to meet their bodies essential nutritional requirements. A undernourished person may lack vitamins, proteins, carbohydrates and a variety of other essential nutrients, which can lead to a litany of other health issues. For example, a deficiency in Retinol (Vitamin A) can lead to blindness and degradation of epithelial cells, which are a vital part of the bodies immune system in way that these cells help protect against infections. One problem residing in a lot of developing countries is that they are located in places of the world that lack the adequate climate required to grow the diverse array of crops needed to supplement the body with all of its essential nutritional requirements. There are many different strategies currently in place to combat the crises of malnutrition. The problem with these strategies are that they are all depended upon international aid. These programs are often plagued by inconsistencies in external funding which impedes their effort, making them more times than not, unsuccessful.
How can GMOs help?
This is where GMOs come in. GMOs offer a viable long term solution independent of international aid. As stated in my previous article, GMOs There're Not so Bad..No Really!, with GMOs, scientist are now able to safely engineer crops to not only present a higher crop yield feeding more people, but to also be more nutritious. A perfect example of this is The Golden Rice Project.
The Golden Rice Project
In 2012, the Worlds Health Organization estimated that 250 million preschool children worldwide suffer from a Vitamin A deficiency and that a third of that number, around 2.7 million, will die as a result. Vitamin A deficiency is most prevalent in people who's diets predominantly consist of rice (So mainly a lot of Asian countries. The Philippines and Bangladesh to name a few). Rice however, does not naturally contain any beta carotene, a substance that the body uses to convert to Vitamin A. In 1999, The Golden Rice Project was created by professors Ingo Potrykus and Peter Beyer with the intention of genetically engineering rice to produce the lacking beta carotene, and provide this genetically engineered rice to the millions in the regions where rice was the predominant source of nutrition. However, the professors lacked cooperate support. They then proposed their idea to the Rockefeller Foundation and liking the professors idea to combat Vitamin A deficiency, the foundation backed their effort. Thus the Golden rice project was born. Not everyone is supportive There has been opposition the project however. Resistance to GMO crops exist unilaterally across the world and with deep social and cultural feelings of mistrust towards the crops, the rollout of The Golden Rice project has been a tumultuous one. Firstly, people often fear things that they do not understand. Genetic Engineering is something that people do not understand. While this may be fair, the fact of the matter is that there are people that do understand genetic engineering and the consensus is that GMOs do not present a higher risk to your health more so than conventionally grown crops. Simply because a large part of a population fears something does not mean that another segment of the population should be condemned to malnutrition and death because of this fear. There are also groups that claim golden rice produce too little beta carotene to be effective against Vitamin A deficiency. With 1.6 micrograms of beta carotene per gram of rice, according to an article on the genetic literacy project's website “A person would have to eat 4 kg of cooked rice, (assuming it was fully absorbed and eaten immediately after harvest with minimal cooking) to get the same level of vitamin A that one medium carrot or 1 tsp. parsley would provide," This however relies on data that is almost 20 years old! These numbers are put together from data from the original variety of Golden Rice from the 1990s. The present and updated Golden Rice contains up to 23 times more beta carotene than the original rice. With a cup of rice from the present variety, a person could supply up to 50 Percent of their daily nutritional requirements to fulfill their bodies Vitamin A needs.
Where do we go from here
Well across the world the science is becoming more and more conclusive. the fact is with all the fear surrounding GMOs and after all the years of public consumption of GMOs crops by people and farm animals, none of that has been realized. GMO crops need to be embraced not for people like me that are blessed to live in places like America where there is an abundance of nutritional food, but for people in places like Asia and Africa that are malnourished and are dying from it.

Does your watermelon have gout? 🤔 Maybe if it’s seedless. 🍉 To produce a SEEDLESS watermelon growers apply a naturally occurring chemical called “colchicine”. (This is the chemical extracted from the Autumn Crocus flower and used in medicine to treat gout. It can be deadly in high doses.) The colchicine causes a watermelon plant to produce twice as many chromosomes. This “genetically modified” plant is then used to fertilize a “normal” watermelon plant and the result is watermelon babies 👶🏾 that are seedless. Sooo technically seedless watermelons aren’t completely genetically modified ... her daddy is 😂😂😂. #themoreyouknow . .#summer #watermelon #gmo #geneticallymodified #geneticallymodifiedfood https://www.instagram.com/p/Byl6ItPHRbyvbGJoiqw35hFqPb0pnUHCXcCczc0/?igshid=1y1wds6x0es7e

The USDA won't regulate genetically edited plants
The USDA won’t regulate genetically edited plants
The US Department of Agriculture has zero plans to regulate plants altered with gene-editing technologies, according to the agency’s Secretary Sonny Perdue. It won’t prevent the release of crops created using CRISPR, for instance, so long as the final product is something that could’ve been developed through traditional breeding techniques and it’s not a plant pest or achieved with the help of…

If GMO's are so "Safe" 🤔then why don't companies list them on food labels? Are they trying to hide their true ingredients to the public in fear of losing profits? 💸If my jeans show 80% cotton and 20% polyester, why can't my food do the same? 😓👖💉🍅 What do you think about GMO labeling? ____________________________ #TropicalSmoothieGuy #NonGMO #GMO #GeneticModification #GeneticallyModifiedFoods #GeneticallyModifiedFood #GeneticallyModifiedOrganisms #SayNoToGMO #GMOFree #FakeFood #Artificialingredients #GMOFreeLasVegas #GMOFreeLV (at Las Vegas, Nevada)

GMOs They’re Not So Bad..No Really!
No, seriously really, GMOs aren’t bad. For years there has been debate on rather eating GMOs is adverse to your health or not, but recently studies and history has shown that eh, it might not be so bad for you. Now hear me out, I’m not here to argue about rather the practices of certain companies are ethical, because in a lot of cases they’re not (I won’t say any names…*cough Monsanto*…), but what I intended to strictly adhere to is why consuming these products are just as safe as consuming products that are completely organic. Ok so far starters, the science backs it up. Period. Another period. The National Academy of Sciences (NAS) delivered a report stating that “the study committee found no substantiated evidence of a difference in risks to human health between current commercially available genetically engineered (GE) crops and conventionally bred crops, nor did it find conclusive cause-and-effect evidence of environmental problems from the GE crops. ” which you can read in its entirety here. In other words, health-wise it does not make a difference if you are eating GMOs or “conventionally” grown crops, they are not even bad for the environment! The Academy gathered data by studying acute (immediate) and chronic (long-term) epidiomelogical data of humans and animals that consumed GMO products and found no noticeable adverse health related effects that could be traced back to the consumed GMO products. More than 50 scientist over a period of two years diligently combed through the data to come to this conclusion. Over 900 research publications were analyzed, 80+ different objective speakers were consulted with and they even went the extra mile in consulting the public, all in an effort to make absolutely sure that what they concluded was indisputable.
That is after The World Health Organization and the American Medical Association among many others has come to the very same conclusion!
The fact is GMO products are the most tested products in human history. There has been over 2,000 studies that show that consuming GMO products does not adversely affect your health more than consuming their non GMO counterparts. All this scrutiny comes after, the on average, 7-10 years of testing before they can even be sold in countries like the United States! These test cover a variety of different subjects such as the potential harm it could cause to humans and animals ( I mean these test went above and beyond! In researching for this blog, I found a study that was done about horizontal gene transfer, which looked at the possibility of edited genes in plants transferring to the genes of the bacteria in our gut and how that would in turn affect us! Who would have thought of that). These same studies has also come to the conclusion that GMOs can actually reduce the use of pesticides in the growing of our crops. In fact, one of the studies has concluded that in some cases GMO crops has reduced the use of pesticides by up to 37% while increasing crop yield by up to 22%. So not only are GMOs are GMOs safe to consume but they reduce the dependency of the use of chemicals, that when we consume, has no nutritional value and are potentially hazardous to our health. Now I know plenty of people will remain skeptical of the literally thousands of different researches done by hundreds if not thousands of different scientists. But, if you are still not convinced just take a step back and look at history. GMO products has been around now and has been widely consumed for about 25 years. If GMOs caused cancer and tumors, which is the common fear, these cases would have been widely documented. And do you see any? Are there any news report circulating pointing to where a single person has died from some illness brought onto them by GMOs? I’ll leave you to answer that question. There are a few reasons GMOs are not only safe, but are important to us When weighing the benefits and looking at the conclusion of thousands of research, it is abundantly clear to me that, not only are GMO plants safe to consume, but they are going to be a much needed resource for us going forward. While some of us may have won the geographical lottery in that we are born in areas of the world that produce the diverse array of crops required for all of our nutritional requirements , the fact remains that many of us do not. I’ll use a small example, every year around 2 million people die per year in a certain part of the world because of a Vitamin A deficiency in their diet. The Golden Rice Project is a project that is currently attempting to rectify this issue by introducing rice that has be Genetically Engineered to contain high levels of Vitamin A to the area, making available, a life saving agricultural product. Aside from the fact that genetically modified plants can be made to be more nutritious or made to contain nutritional substances required by our bodies, they can also be made to resist a hazardous environment. I lightly touch on the fact that you can engineer crops that reduces the dependency on pesticides, but what I didn’t mention is the fact that GMO crops can be engineered to resist drought and higher temperatures brought on by climate change. Which is highly important because a study found that over 500,000 people will die by the year 2050 due to its effect on food production. So it’s clear that GMOs are not only safe but in the coming future will be vital to us. My hope is while people fear it right now because the concept is so foreign to what we are use to and we don’t completely understand it, that will change shortly as more and more research is done showing GMOs are safe. The worlds population is also growing at an alarming rate and we will soon lose the ability to feed everyone with the conventional way of growing crops…so there’s that. Read the full article
