GMO vegetables
GMO stands for genetically modified organisms. In other words, their genes are combined and modulated to resist pests and have better crops. However, we have learned that genetics is very complex, and when we intervene in one of them, others may become affected as well. It is not possible to know the full extent of consequences when a new GMO product is made. Studies have linked GMO products with different types of cancer, and even though they are not radioactive and won’t cause immediate harm, the risk is still latent. That’s why many people prefer non-GMO products and may even buy organic food.
