However, the market is flooded with GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) fruits and
vegetables, despite the fact that many different studies have shown that GMO products can
seriously affect our overall health! Do you really know what you eat? Unfortunately, most
people can not identify the GMO tomatoes or other GMO products, so in this article we are going
to show you how to distinguish between themHow Safe Are GMOs? There are two very different
views when it comes to the health and safety of genetically modified food — industry leaders
and scientists who support GMOs, and those who believe that GMOs are harmful. Genetically
modified foods have been linked to toxic and allergic reactions, sick, sterile and dead livestock,
and damage to virtually every organ studied in lab animals. Note: Most developed nations do
not consider GMOs to be safe. In fact, in more than 60 countries around the world, including
Australia, Mexico, Peru, Japan and all of the countries in the European Union, there are
significant restrictions or outright bans on the production and sale of GMOs. How To Identify
GMO Products — GMO Labeling By reading the PLU code, or price lookup number printed on the
sticker, you can tell if a product was conventionally grown, organically grown, or genetically
modified. Conventionally grown fruits and vegetables (grown with fertilizers, pesticides,
fungicidess, antibiotics, hormones), are labeled with a four digits code. For instance, a banana is
labeled with the code: 4011. Organic fruits and vegetables (produced without synthetic
chemicals), are labeled with a five digits code, starting with the number 9. An organic banana
would be: 94011 Genetically modified (GMO) fruits and vegetables are labeled with a five digits
code, starting with the number 8. A genetically modified banana would be: 84011 Note: These
tips are very important, as currently more than 80 percent of processed foods in the United
States have been genetically modified. In many European countries, including Austria, France,
Germany, Greece, Hungary, Luxembourg and Italy, the production and sale of GMO products is
banned.
