13 Reasons

GMO's are good but it comes at a certain price. Some researchers have questioned on the safety, ecological effects and economic considerations of these GMO foods.

Here are 13 reasons why GMO's are bad:

1.  Allergy- Most of the adverse reactions is due to the proteins in those food stuffs. Transfer of genetic information from one organism to other leads to a new set of proteins. These might impart or increase allergic properties to the food which was previously safe for consumption. 
    

2.  Resistance to antibiotics- Genetic engineers trust antibiotics for experiments. Excess of antibiotics will probably result into antibiotic resistant pathogens.
   

 3.  Exposure to pesticides- The majority of genetically modified crops are designed to contain a sequence for chemical resistance. 
    

4.  The unknown effects- Genetic material from a foreign body can cause host to behave unpredictably. Genes are often suppressed or over-expressed, inflicting a good type of results. Over-expression of certain hormones and chemicals might lead to cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and diabetes. We are yet to grasp all the potential advanced interactions of the complex DNA. 
    

5.  Many outcomes are unnoticed. Study showed that the sequence inserted into soybeans transferred into gut bacterium which may have serious implications such as over-production of toxin, allergen, anti-nutrients and carcinogens.
    

6.  Resistant weeds- Food crops from genetically changed seeds will have an effect on the weeds that grow within the same space. Weeds will access the changed genes that build the crops resistant, and when some years the weeds themselves will become resistant. This means that a lot of chemicals will be required, which may have an effect on the security of the food crops once consumed. 
    

7.  High plant estrogens- Glyphosate applied to create crops proof against weeds causes higher plant sex hormone levels which affects all mammals together with humans.
    

8. Negative interactions- With genetically changed foods, there is always a risk of reactions or interactions that has never been seen such as interaction between two totally different food items with changed genes or among food and various kind of drugs. 
    

9.  No future analysis- Genetically changed foods haven't had future analysis done and have short term info. 
    

10.  Genetically altered food isn't tagged- There's no labelling on these foods which is one of the largest dangers associated. 
    

11. Higher fat content in some modified food. When these GMO foods were provided as food stuff for cows, they produced fat rich milk.
    

12. Certain modified potatoes when fed to rats caused cancerous cell growth in the GI tract and inhibited brain, liver growth. GM tomatoes also resulted in the death of few rats due to stomach lesions. Bt corn had severe effects on cells, kidneys and liver of experimental rats.
    

13. The workers those were exposed to Bt cotton gathered new allergic reactions on their skin, respiratory tracts and eyes while sheep died after grazing these Bt cotton field. Many studies showed that even inhalation of Bt cotton pollen triggered skin and respiratory reactions.
