GMO 2.0 is now in food and cosmetics

[Valli]

OK the GMO’s have gone up a step - they are now hiding GMO 2.0 (synthetic Biology) in food and cosmetics, This is a list over over 350 ingredients that are being added without consent to our food and cosmetics

What a load of hogwash. This sounds a lot like the rantings of an evangelist doomsday prophet. This biased “boycott” is not going to do anyone any good. Show me the peer-reviewed studies.

These products have been released into the market are or about to - you wont find any peer group studies because they will call them “Secret” and hide the fact that they are based on GMO of produced by GMO organisms

GMO 2.0: genetically modified foods with added health benefits

“Whatever you think about biotech crops – and there are legitimate questions about their environmental impact, and the rights of consumers to know what they are eating, and intellectual property issues – this technology simply can’t be shoved down the throats of people who don’t want it.”

“Companies are not telling consumers these products are GMO; instead they are using terms like “fermentation derived” to describe ingredients made with synthetic biology. When you see that term on products, or a “non-browning” apple or potato, assume that means genetically engineered.”

GMO 2.0

“We should all have the right to know what is in our food or other products. Biotech companies are unleashing technologies with few ideas about consequences. People want food that is truly authentic, natural, healthy, and the least risky. We need transparency and the right to choose.”

FDA to Begin Testing for Glyphosate in Food

[quote] “A 2011 study by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) found glyphosate residue on 90 percent of the soybean samples tested, but concluded that the levels were within acceptable limits. Other studies, including WHO’s recent report, have reached more alarming conclusions. Separate studies in Canada, Sweden, and the United States have found that people who work with herbicides containing glyphosate showed an increased risk of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.”

GMO 2.0 Review - Genetically Modified Organisms Make For Fake Foods?

“These methods are new, but can still cause unintended effects, despite being more precise. Changing the genetics of any organism always makes them behave differently. There is little study on the health and environmental effect of these changes. The technique in the creation of the GMO 2.0 might be different, but the traits will remain the same.”

Next-generation genetically modified foods need better regulation

[quote]“New GMO foods are being released with little understanding of their potential health and environmental consequences. So far, no safety assessments specific to these new techniques are required, and no regulatory oversight is in place for this swiftly moving set of new technologies.”

Heavens if you don’t like them don’t use them.
As for the Guardian? This is the paper that thinks Jeremy Corbyn can save the world!

As an aside CRISPR tdchnology is being used to investigate making bees that poison the varroa that parasitise them. Now that should be interesting

It is also being used for human genome editing to correct some lethal childhood diseases, on a very limited basis so far, but fascinating. Now humans can be GMOs.
