GMO Notices

We are confronting a difficult reality: COVID-19 has changed the safety of our own grocery stores. According to Harvard Medical lab, a GM potato had affected virtually every single organ in its body with toxins. Also according to procon.org, some genetically modified crops have not been proven safe for human consumption. My idea to help make consumers feel better is notification of which products are genetically modified. Currently, the FDA is pursuing innovation in plant and animal biotechnology to advance human's public health (fda.gov). With something as simple as a sticker on these food products, people will feel at least a small amount of relief with this pandemic going on. In addition to these previous comments, National Geographic confirms that "over 90% of corn, soy beans, and sugar beets are GMO's." Obviously another alternative is to creative your own garden in your backyard, but a lot of people do not have the time and opportunity. Currently, 64 countries other than the US do label their GMO's according to nongmoproject.org. With products being labelled as either GMO or not, people deserve the option to know what kind of things that they are putting in their body.
