What does GMO stand for? It stands for genetically modified organism. A genetically modified organism or genetically engineered organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques.
We have been hearing GMO for a while now, and the reasons that we should not be eating products that are GMO'd. The main products that are usually GMO's include: Corn, Soybeans, Canola, and Cottonseed. Buying organic is the best way that we can avoid GMO because, they are not allowed to use GMO.
I know this is a lot to process right now, and you are probably thinking to yourself. Dang, what can I eat? Is everything trying to kill me? This is a normal reaction, but you have to take into consideration that you are lucky enough to receive this information, because some people don't get it at all or until it is too late. You should look for Non GMO Labels. A Non GMO Label means that the product does not contain GMO. If you are not sure if a product contains GMO or not you should contact the company and see what the company says. It is so important to read the ingredients list. Everyone should do so before purchasing products these days. It is very important that we know what is going into our bodies. Than, if we do get sick, (I pray that no one does) we can have an idea as to knowing what and how to fight the disease. Again, knowing this information and acting on it can hopefully, protect us from getting sick.
Hopefully, by not purchasing products that have GMO in it we can force companies to not use GMO. Why should we give our money to companies that don't have our best interest at hand?
Here is the the GMO Shopping Guide. The GMO Shopping guide gives you a list of companies that use GMO and companies that don't use GMO. It is a very extensive list. You can get it for free. You can download the shopping guide, and it is also in pdf form. Please share this information with your friends and family. You can print the shopping guide out and take it with you to the grocery store so you can know what foods to purchase and what foods to avoid.
One of these days soon I hope to be able to have a small garden so I can grow my own food, because that is what it is coming too. No one can care more about you, your family, and your friends health more than you do.
