GMO crops can potentially have undesired gene flow through cross pollination, which concerns organic farmers. While the FDA claims there are no known health effects of GMOs on humans, there are concerns about potential allergies, unknown diseases, and gene transfer. More testing is needed on GMO foods before widespread human consumption, as current testing methods are insufficient and GM foods could potentially lead to antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

3. Whatis GMO is an organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques generally known as recombinant DNA technology, use DNA molecules from different sources, which are combined into one molecule to create a new set of genes
6. Conclusion FDA does not recognize any health effects upon humans It serve us another supply of our needs and our wants. The solution to conserve our natural resources
7. Additonal knowledge Allergies are a major concern with Gm foods Especially when the ingredients are not labeled in the packaged food. There are no reliable ways to test GM foods for Allergies We need moreand better testing before making GM foods available for human consumption.
8. GM foods may cause bacteria to become resistant in antibiotics Current testing methods need more radical improvements.
9. Questions Why does GM product affect the health of consumers if it was tested by the FDA? Genetically Modified Foods:Are they a Risk to Human/Animal Health?
