It has been debated that GMO’s are harmful to the overall health of people. It is theorized that genetically modified organisms, or GMO’s, cause health problems because of the fact they have been genetically altered. Research has proven that GMO’s are not as harmful as people think. They can actually be helpful. However, like all things, they have their cons.

That’s a really good dog food.” Then the woman showed the man some ingredients from his dog food and Blue’s but he didn’t know which was which and he didn’t even know what companies were on the board. He looked at both of them and said that this second one (Blue) had so many good ingredients. The…

Deal, his "old-time country store," as he states. When a stranger walked in and issued his threat. As Rinehart would recall, the man began to verbally attack him, saying he had proof that Rinehart had planted Monsanto's genetically modified (G.M.) soybeans in violation of the company's patent.

As described in Chapter 2, probiotics are known as the "good" bacteria found in our bodies. These living microorganisms are able to alter the body's bacterial colonies in order to generate health benefits on its host when given in proper amounts. These microorganisms can be beneficial because they are able to find a place inside the body's digestive tract and modify its ways of functioning. These actions, in turn, could possibly reduce digestive problems, such as colon cancer and ulcers.…

They are trying to produce and market genetically modified rice in the state of California. In a previous case called “Prodigene”, genetically modified corn was produced then the following year soybeans were produced. In the same field, volunteer corn, sprouted from the previous season’s corn amongst the soybeans. This is just one way ordinary food can be contaminated with genetically modified food. The article listed that the Southern Valley of California has a huge population of water fowl,…

microorganisms to colonize. In tryptic soy agar, some ingredients include: pancreatic digest of casein, papaic digest of soybean meal, and sodium chloride (Reddy et al., 2007). The casein and soybean meal present in this nutrient plate provides a source of organic nitrogen, vitamins and minerals, such as amino acids and peptides with longer chains (Siegrist, n.d.). As well, the soybean meal also has sugars, further promoting the growth of bacteria (Siegrist, n.d.). Lastly, the sodium chloride in…
