Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs)

Many processed foods have genetically modified organisms or GMOs. Because of the lack of studies, it is unknown what the long-term effects of GMO crops are on our health. However, studies on animals reveal serious health effects related to GMOs, such as changes in organs including the kidneys. It’s nearly impossible to avoid these foods, but it’s suggested that people eat processed foods in moderation and consume a variety of fresh and healthy foods instead.
