There is one small problem with this: human greed. We already got tasteless tomatoes and huge watery strawberries. They're just appearing convincing, but they're tasting like sh*t. Allowing GMOs we will allow the "good" and (unfortunately) the BAD part of it. And as mentioned, the human greed as always will win and we will be overwhelmed with low quality products because "we need more, quicker and cheaper". Without strict regulations, there is no point on allowing them. But regulations need knowledge, and th knowledge is coming from the "experts" that are still trying to figure out how turn on a projector in their classrooms. I just don't trust this circle.

They want us to eat lab made food to make us weaker and sicker. Just disgusting that they are trying to convince the public that genertically modifying plants is good for us. What a bunch of crock.

GMO produce isn't what people are afraid of. They're afraid of the chemicals and pesticides that people have bread the food to be immune to. They play it safe by making the assumption, if this was genetically modified, it was likely to increase the yealled and handling the horrible chemicals sprayed all over them.

Just because something is less poisonous, doesn't mean its not dangerous. Glyphosate is TOXIC to humans, even in very small quantities.

I find the idea of GMOs fascinating, especially when they talk about the terminator seeds. I always wonder if using complete whole-food supplements like LyfeFuel could complement this advancing food science.
@kellinaforschner7123
August 25, 2025 at 9:06 pm
The global impact of gene flow is intense. Just like LyfeFuel's approach to holistic health, sometimes it’s about finding balance in science and nature.

August 25, 2025 at 9:06 pm
The problem with GMO bigger crops is that they require more nutrion from terrain but the organic content of the fields in this modern day is very low and going lower, there is no way to intensify production without losing on nutrional levels. One orange 40 years ago (nutrional value) is 9 oranges now, that's why our bodies and minds are gettin weaker and weaker.
GMO is not the problem, yes true, but we can't use GMO unless we revitalize the soil and make laws as to how farming should be done. Give time to the organic content of soil to replenish.

I'm so glad that when JESUS CHRIST comeback, HE will destroy all the wickedness on this world. All the arrogance of wicked men, all their stupid pride….. Their pseudo-science… their "knowledge"…. It's disgusting what man is doing. They're destroying everything that God created! But JESUS CHRIST will put an end to all this madness.

Only chocolates that contain GMOs seem to be dangerous for dogs if eaten. I found this out by accident. Years ago, I was making s’mores and, as always, I used only organic chocolate made without GMOs. While I was outside by the fire pit roasting marshmallows, I left the chocolate on the kitchen counter without thinking. My friend had brought her golden retriever over, and while we were distracted, the dog jumped up and grabbed all the chocolate off the counter. He ate every bit—four full bars!
Surprisingly, he never got sick. He did drink a lot of water throughout the night, but that was it—no vomiting, no issues. It honestly shocked me. Ever since then, I’ve believed that the real danger might come from what’s in the chocolate, not just the chocolate itself. GMO’s
