French scientists experimentally proved that genetically modified corn induced tumors. It was horrifying to see the large tumors and the painful appearance of the mice being experimented on. Today, we have put together some articles to help parents identify genetically modified foods. For the sake of our next generation, for ourselves and our families, please be sure to check them out!
1. Soybeans
Non-GMO soybeans: are oval-shaped and somewhat flat. The belly button is light brown. Beans vary in size. The soy milk is milky white.
Genetically modified soybeans: are round and rolled. The navel is yellow or yellow-brown. The size of the bean is about the same. The soy milk is a little yellow, and the tofu and other things made with this bean are a little yellow.
A simple test: genetically modified soybeans do not germinate! You can test it with water! The local soybean soaked in water for three days will germinate! Genetically modified soybeans do not germinate, but merely expand individually. From this germination test process, one can find out that these GM soybeans are one-time fruits that are produced at once, and their germ is not active in the essence of life, so there is no ability to continue offspring. This is equivalent to a person who can have a normal pregnancy, but each time it is stillborn, which means that the continuation of life ends here.
If humans consume a variety of genetically modified foods on a large scale for a long time, the genetically modified fragments that are harmful to humans will inevitably affect and change the normal genes of human beings, and it is reasonable to expect a decrease in resistance, strange diseases, or loss of fertility.
2. Carrots
Non-GMO carrots: the surface is uneven and generally not too straight, from the head to the tail is from thick to thin. The head is convex to the outside.
Genetically modified carrots: The surface is relatively smooth, generally straight, and its tail is sometimes thicker than the middle. And the head is concave inward. Note: Carrots are only available in the fall and winter, and summer ones are usually genetically modified.
3. Potatoes
Non-GMO potatoes: they look ugly, generally darker in color, with pits on the surface, while the skin is irregular in color.
Because of the potato: the surface is smooth, the pits are very light, and the color is lighter. After peeling, its surface has no obvious changes. Test: peel first and then see the changes before deciding whether to eat.
4.Corn
Genetically modified corn: sweet and crisp, full, beautifully shaped, the head grain tail is about the same.
5.Rice
In China, the region where GM rice is legally grown is Hubei. Be wary of long, thin, shiny rice, which can be easily confused with Northeast “long grain” rice. Be sure to look at the origin when buying.
6. tomatoes
Genetically modified tomatoes: bright red color is very nice, the fruit is hard, not easy to crack the fruit.
7, other identification methods
The label of imported fruit. Generally speaking, in the bottom of the label is generally printed with the name of the exporting country, the middle of the English letters indicate the name of the fruit, the uppermost letters identify the name of the exporting enterprise. In the middle of each label there are generally four Arabic numerals: 3 words beginning with pesticide spraying, 4 words beginning with genetically modified fruit, and 5 words beginning with hybrid fruit.
(1) When buying food from supermarkets, you must pay attention and check whether there is a GMO label first. According to the “Management of Agricultural Genetically Modified Organisms Labeling”, genetically modified foods should be labeled. But these labels are afraid to see people, as small as 1.8 mm high, and hiding in the most inconspicuous place, careful check can always be found.
(2) Most of the supermarket tomatoes and papayas are genetically modified, so I am determined not to buy them. In terms of safety and quality, individual farmers are much better than supermarkets in terms of fruit products.
(3) Corn is the earliest, widest and most widely used genetically modified.
(4) Genetically modified wheat seeds are white, transparent and shiny, fully horny, hard, strong and high quality bread wheat varieties, and the special superior GM 9506 wheat was introduced in Anhui in 2008, and the flour has bleach and talc mixed in it, which makes it more difficult to identify.
(5) rice genetically modified China secretly engaged in several years, a few into the market, especially to be wary of long, thin and bright rice. The Northeast rice is currently GM-free, so you can rest assured for the time being. Be sure to look at the outer bag, such as the rice industry in Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning, the Northeast rice is japonica, short round grain type, which is essentially different from the long grain type of GM rice (such as BT Shanyou 63) grown in Hubei and Hunan, easy to identify. In addition, GMO is banned in Thailand, so there is no problem with its rice.
(6) millet, oats, buckwheat, sorghum are small food crops, it is too late to go genetically modified. Peanuts are unique products in China, no genetic modification for the time being, and sweet potatoes are not genetically modified.
8, bioresonance identification method
The unknown food and as a benchmark for the non-GM similar food biological spectrum field resonance, if resonance, it is non-GM food; not, it is genetically modified food. This operation is easy and widely applicable, but the technical difficulty is high.
