Asserting their safety without proof is not sufficient to justify the introduction of novel proteins and other substances into trade. A recent CBS/NY Times poll shows over 80% of Americans want truthful and not misleading GMO labeling, yet the US gov't continues to oppose such labeling. Why? Please go to www.globalhealthfreedom.org for another view about GMO products and their potential risks. The situation is not as rosy as this article pretends.
