GMO
GMO: Genetically Modified Organism
GM: Genetically modified
All organisms have specific genetic make up called DNA

• Genetic Engineering– alters DNA of an organism’s genome
• GM foods exist in almost all areas of food production– Crops, animals, and dairy
• Scientist altar the DNA of organisms
– Bacteria– Yeast– Plants (crops)– Fish– Mammals

Why?
• Taste and Quality• Resistance to pests • Increased shelf life• Resistance to harsh environmental conditions• Resistance to herbicides – “Round up Ready” Seeds

How?
• Mutation• Insertion – horizontal gene transfer– Used by attaching the gene being inserted to a
virus• Deletion of genes
Who says it’s safe?

Say NO to GMO!
GM products offer no nutritional health value
Are not designed with consumer health in mind

• Over 90% of products sold contain GMO’s
• Shopping organic for products located on the outskirts of the store – Less likely to be GM
Look for:
