Abstract

A Comprehensive Assessment and Perception of Genetically Modified Foods

Arun Kumar R, Sathish Kumar D, Gayatri V and Nishanth T

NGenerally by the use of genetically modified (GM) foods we believe that labels should be placed on all GM products so that we can also understand the risks involved, but believe the benefits far outweigh the costs. Starvation is much more dangerous to more people than any threat presented by GM foods. Droughts and famine are increasing throughout the world, particularly on the continent of Africa. Although some traditional environmental groups insist that they are simply providing facts about potential health and environmental effects of GM foods, others oppose it.
