Abstract:

Genetically modified organisms are organisms (for example, microorganisms, plants and animals) whose genetic composition has been changed in such a way that it no longer occurs in natural conditions through natural recombination or mating. This technology has offered many advantages over natural foods, but the argument is that the benefits far outweigh the potential risks and harms associated with it. Thus, genetically modified foods can be a double-edged sword. The risks to safety, health and the environment associated with GM products remain unresolved to this day [1,5,6]. The safety of GM products raises many questions on which there are too limited scientific studies, and emphasizes the need for further scientific study in order to shed light on this dilemma [2,3,4,7]. Food obtained from genetically modified crops is unsafe for consumption, according to [8,10]. Who says that it is impossible to make a clear statement that GM products are safe, this should be evaluated only in each specific case [9,11]. There are major questions about the safety of GM products that cause disputes about the allergenicity and toxicity of these products. Food obtained from transgenic crops, otherwise known as GM products, is considered a serious problem for human health, since, according to some authors, it causes allergies.
