The world’s major regulatory and scientific agencies made a declaration that genetically modified crops pose not a greater threat to the health of humans than those produced by traditional breeding methods (Declan et al. 651). In making such a declaration, the regulatory agencies argued that the perceived risks of using GMO foods are merely hypothetical with no scientific justification. The fact that there is a continuous call for more research on health risks is thought to fuel the negative perception of the health impact of GMOs.Since the introduction of GMO foods, (Domingo & Bordonaba 735) says that a significantly high number of new GM products have been certified as safe and enlisted together with some traditional foods as potential food sources. While the media has been at the forefront in bashing the use of GMO foods, there are no sufficient publications on toxicological studies to support the adverse ill effects of GMOs. Surprisingly, even the little publications found on the adverse effects of GMOs are mainly commentaries and letters to the editor. The fact that these references do not come from reputable biotechnology companies serves to allay any fears regarding the health impact of GMOs (Domingo & Bordonaba 736).Most of the people concerned about the long-term health impacts of genetically engineered crops tend to base their argument on the safety of the vector used in the process (Declan et al. 652). It has, however, been observed that most of the gene constructs that are used in the engineering process are safer compared to attenuated viral vectors that are popularly applied in gene therapy. This shows, therefore, that people are merely quick to sacrifice genetically modified organisms while ignoring what could be potentially harmful to their health.Following the concern of the long-term health impacts of GMOs, some companies such as Monsanto took it upon themselves to conduct research on some GM crops. The findings from the studies have been particularly impressive as none was found to have negative health effects on humans. Some of the crops that have been investigated and results documented include the following. corn/maize, rice, and soybeans.
