Then there are many food additives... MSG, aspartame, gluten fillers, and so on. Removing these from my diet eliminated quite a few annoying symptoms, but it is tricky. They are often listed with cryptic names in the ingredients ("autolyzed yeast" and so on). Some people are able to consume these without problems, but some people are affected.
I try to avoid processed food When I do consume any product with a label, I read the entire label and absolutely DO NOT purchase any product with MSG (by any of its many names) or aspertame, high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, and all those other zillion addatives which can not contribute to optimal health! A carrot does not need a label, nor does an apple
I do not patronize the deli section of the supermarket because I don't know how the food was prepared
IMHO we control our own health and wellness by our lifestyle and what we eat; with the exception of heredity and viruses and if you have a healthy immune system you have a better chance to recover from invading disease
Without GE (Genetically engineer) Food, MILLIONS of people would die.
We are lucky that we live in the US, but the rest doesn't have a choice.
We need GE.
MSG and aspartame has nothing to do with GE.
Eat food that is in its most natural form, avoid eating chemicals, and you should be okay. There is a way to tell if produce at the grocery store is genetically modified... I want to say that if the PLU is five digits but it's not organic, it's GMO. Regular produce has 4 digit PLUs.

Five digits that start with 9 are organic,
Five digits that start with 8 are GE/GM

We are so lucky! What would we ever do w/out Monsanto and the wonderful experiments, factory farming and abuse of power..lol...I quiver at the thought! Lucky enough for us we have the best bought and sold government in the world and live in the greediest country also! Africa, a nation with starving ppl doesn't even what these GM foods..what does that tell you?
Now, on topic..... Keep the damn GE away from regular crops. Monsanto is tainiting the whole food supply with these franken foods. Isolate a labrotory somewhere to grow these foods this way ppl like myself who want no part of consuming them don't have to.
You say I have a choice? The scum at Monsanto are trying there absolute hardest to make sure I don't.. They want GM foods not to be labeled as such at that includes organics. Are they kidding? Fortunately we are so lucky we should not dare question the powers that be at Monsanto. GM is safe because they said so...lmao.

Says who? The wonderful sales people who work for those manufacturers? Or the misinformation shoved in our faces to convince people to accept this? There are numerous research studies showing the negative effects of GM foods. They come with a price. Our bodies are not designed to digest and metabolize synthetic proteins and amino acids. One doesn't need a degree in biophysics or nutritional toxicology, I switched and the difference to my body was all the convincing needed.
Remember all those commercials of "starving kids in Africa" with distended abdomens? People who are starving get thin, they do not swell up. That's intestinal inflammation (enterocolitis) triggered by genetically modified grains from here.

You are lucky because you have a choice in what you eat, you are lucky because you can go to a supermarket and pick what you want to eat (Organic, natural, or GE) while most people on the planet can't.
So, YES you are lucky. This GE food have saved billions of people in Mexico and India. If you want more information do a little search on Norman Ernest Borlaug.

Almost 70% of all crops in the US are already GE, sooner or later it would be 90%.

Monsanto is a great company trying to better our food and trying to solve a lot of our problems (over population and better quality of food).
And GM is not something new, or something strange to call it "franken".

show me one...
Every single National Organization, WHO, UN, etc. And almost all governments.
Earth can only feed about 6 billions of people not 8.

This shows that you don't know what you are talking about, there is not synthetic nothing.

Your body doesnt know the difference since GM is natural and normal, they are just crossing different crops of the same kind (Like crossing dogs, that happens every day in life.)

Incredible the ignorance, they have distended abdomens because of worms(parasites). Get educated.

OMG, where is your evidence, and why we don't see it here?

Correct, they are not related, just bad for us.
Ignorance is bliss.
