GM Foods
What are they?
Common questions:

Do GMOs Cause Cancer?
Well, the scientists can't confirm whether or not they increase cancer risks.

Are GMOs Safe For Human Consumption?
The studies have found no evidence that GMOs cause organ toxicity or other adverse health effects.
In the past few days, we have learned a lot of things about the GM Foods, and here we will mention some of them. They are foods that have some changes, because scientists introduce DNA of another organisms. They use some methods of genetic engineering so that the process can be safe and easier. This is because, with that DNA, the food can grow faster, stronger and they have a higher tolerance to pesticides and herbicides. Some scientists think that in the future, genetic modification could be used for other things, like altering the nutrient content of food, and that would reduce its allergenic potential and it would improve the efficiency of food systems.

Important things in your diet
It is important that you include a lot of things in your diet, like a whole-grain bread, but not refined, also, you have to increase your protein intake, drink enough water, take omega-3 and vitamin D supplements.
Also, you have to eat a wide variety of foods in the right proportions, and drink to maintain a healthy body weight.
Besides that, a lot of people wonder if it is good to eat transgenic food, and the answer is "yes". There is no evidence that proves that it can be dangerous just because it is GM.
I think that it would be amazing to have a food detector, because it would tell us what kind of genes are being introduced to the food, and you can know if it is good to eat it or not.
