Food Safety Everyone Talks: Is GM Food Safe?

In recent years, as the variety and quantity of genetically modified foods continue to increase, the public’s direct and indirect exposure to genetically modified foods has increased accordingly. Therefore, the attention of genetically modified foods is naturally higher, and the discussion on their safety is increasingly fierce. Domestic and foreign experts and scholars have also published their opinions on this topic. However, as an emerging biotechnology, the current safety of genetically modified foods has not formed a conclusion in the world, nor has it formed a unified risk assessment mechanism. Consumers' understanding of the safety of genetically modified foods is very vague. Aiming at the “safety of genetically modified foods”, food partners of the Food Forum Food Forum organized a topical discussion.

Most netizens have neither neutral nor supportive attitude toward genetically modified foods. They believe that the safety of genetically modified foods has not yet been confirmed and therefore cannot be simply affirmed or denied. Research institutions should strengthen the research on risk of genetically modified foods and try to explore the possible safety problems of genetically modified foods. Government regulatory agencies should formulate better management measures for genetically modified foods, such as labels, scope, etc. Enterprises should strictly abide by relevant regulations. Give the parties the right to know and choose.

There are also netizens with clear support or opposition to genetically modified foods. Supported users believe that there is currently no report of genetically modified foods causing harm to human health, and through genetic modification can improve the traits of plants and animals, help solve food security, food preservation and other issues. China is a big country, and the food issue affects the quality of life of the people and even social stability. At least this new biotechnology research must keep up with the advanced level of the world. The opposing netizens believe that the prohibition of the use of genetic modification in organic foods shows that their safety is uncertain. Some netizens have proposed the existence of genetically modified technology and genetically modified foods, which may be due to certain political or economic factors.

Some netizens with neutral attitude towards genetically modified foods made a speech.

Netizens have a warm harbor: The safety of genetically modified foods should only be tested by time. If GM foods are not at risk, why do some countries use genetically modified bean seeds to make food on Chinese soil instead of mass production on their own land? After all, there is a risk of genetic drift in genetically modified foods.

Good network friendliness: I feel that genetically modified foods are seen by benevolent people, and wise men see wisdom. Before the specific hazards are determined, I feel that these foods can still be consumed. Of course, according to your own living standards, if you have a high standard of living, you may not choose. If you do not have such a high ability, you can buy it. I personally think it is edible.

Netizens beer: GM is the use of biotechnology to separate a gene from the organism and implant it in another organism to create a new artificial organism. For example, scientists believe that a certain gene in Arctic fish has antifreeze effect, so it is extracted and replanted in tomatoes. The production of a new breed of cold-tolerant tomatoes is a genetically modified organism. Foods containing genetically modified organisms are called genetically modified foods. Genetically modified foods have their own unique advantages as well as disadvantages. Genetically modified organisms have foreign genes that are new to nature's ecosystems. If released to the environment, they will change the competitive relationship between species, destroy the original natural ecological balance, and lead to extinction of species and loss of biodiversity. The genetically modified organisms will breed in nature and hybridize with their close relatives, thus allowing foreign genes to spread uncontrollably in nature, causing irreparable genetic contamination. In addition, the safety of GM foods to the human body has yet to be verified.
