As for the issue of genetically modified rapeseed oil, let’s first briefly understand that genetically modified rapeseed was introduced from the United States. This kind of rapeseed oil has a high oil yield. Genetically modified rapeseed is rapeseed oil made from genetically modified rapeseed. Non-GMO rapeseed refers to some rapeseed varieties originally existing in my country. This kind of rapeseed has a lower yield and lower oil yield. Genetically modified rapeseed oil contains chemical components, and most of the oil extracted through leaching is harmful to the human body. Non-GMO canola oil is harmless to humans. So, what are the dangers of genetically modified rapeseed oil?
Although there is currently no evidence that genetically modified foods are harmful, and no authoritative person dares to say that there is no harm, you will definitely not die if you eat genetically modified foods now, but you will definitely die from old age and illness in the future if you don’t eat genetically modified foods. Death, no one can resist this natural law.
The effects of genetically modified foods on humans are not harmful in the short term, but the potential and long-term effects are still a mystery to be solved. Therefore, both at home and abroad, whether in the private or scientific circles, genetically modified foods are divided into Positive and negative factions.
Each country has different attitudes towards genetically modified foods. The United States is the country that produces the most genetically modified corn, soybeans, and rapeseed oil. However, Americans’ debate on genetically modified foods is not as intense as that of the Chinese, and few people care about whether genetically modified crops are genetically modified. my country has a very cautious attitude towards genetically modified products, requiring producers to inform consumers whether their products are genetically modified, and giving consumers the right to know and the right to choose: you can eat it or not eat it.
However, if you analyze it carefully, there are still quite a few problems in itself.
First of all, genetically modified foods have changed the local growing environment. There are still many differences between genetically modified foods and non-genetically modified crops during the planting and growth process. They will have a certain impact on the soil and surrounding ecological environment, and this impact is not necessarily positive.
Causing pests to escalate. Genetically modified foods themselves have genes for killing pests, but pests can rely on elimination and evolution to develop higher resistance to this feature, making it possible that pesticides cannot kill them.
Reduce non-GMO crops. Genetically modified crops are cheap, easy to grow, and have high yields. Therefore, many farmers are willing to plant genetically modified crops. For example, in the Northeast, the traditional non-GM soybean producing area, the planting of local soybeans is reduced year by year and replaced by genetically modified soybeans. This situation is likely to cause non-GM crops. The discontinuation and extinction of genetically modified crop seeds.
Influence fertility. Experiments conducted on mice on feeding genetically modified foods have shown that genetically modified foods will have a serious impact on the reproduction and fertility of mice. Generally, after 3-4 generations, breeding difficulties may occur. Therefore, the same problem may exist for humans with genetically modified foods.
