Dr. Antoniou emphasized the commercial interests driving GMO foods and highlighted the potential risks associated with gene-edited products, expressing concerns about the uncontrolled changes in plant biochemistry that could lead to new allergens and toxins. He also stressed the importance of understanding GMO labeling when buying food, urging you to be vigilant about seeking out organic products. The episode provided valuable insights into the complex issues surrounding GMO foods and gene-edited products, emphasizing the need for informed consumer choices and support for organic farming practices to address environmental and health concerns.
Glyphosate, a key ingredient in herbicides like Roundup, poses harmful effects even at low levels. Its presence in foods is concerning, especially in items like oat products. The prevalence of glyphosate in the American diet is primarily due to glyphosate-tolerant GMO crops and non-GMO cropping systems such as orchards.
The widespread use of GMO crops like soy, corn, and sugar beet contributes to the presence of glyphosate in food products. These crops also lead to the development of glyphosate-resistant weeds, increasing the use of more toxic herbicides. The harmful effects of glyphosate on soil microbiome and its toxicity to bees and bugs further emphasize the impact of GMO crops on the environment.
The conversation also touched on the risks associated with gene-edited GM crops developed using technologies like CRISPR. Evidence shows unintended DNA damage from gene editing techniques in agricultural crop development. Deregulation of these gene-edited crops poses potential dangers, raising concerns about the long-term implications for our health and the environment.
