The question everyone is asking is, How will gmos affect humans in the future? 

We really don't know how to answer this question. Gmos have not been around long 

enough to tell if they really affected us in the long run. The problem with gmo food is 

this it is genetically modified and not organic food. Most scientist think that theses 

foods are an issue and are going to affect you. We are going to tell you that there is no 

evidence or proof but we believe that gmos are not good for you and will affect your 

health in the future. As stated here “​There are many purported downsides, but the 

evidence varies, and the main health issues associated with GMO foods are hotly 

debated. Research is ongoing.”(medical news today).​ There is no proof yet that gmos 

will affected us in the long run people just aren't sure about if they are good for you or 

bad for you. Soon enough we'll know if they affected us or not.

The science behind this issue is that gmos are genetically modified organisms. 

So there basically genes being modified to be better organisms. The genes in 

genetically modified organisms are enhanced to make them bigger and better. But that 

doesn't always mean that they are good for you they are not organic. There are two 
different views, ”​Some say genetically modified organisms (GMO) are harmful, while 

others say they’ll help us feed the growing billions of humans that populate our 

planet​.​”(futurism).​They don't have any studies yet because of how long they have been 

around. People just don't know if they are healthy or not or if they should just eat 

organic foods like before. The people are just scared of the new foods and how they will 

affect their health in the future or now. 

Gmos aren't impacted society yet but people aren't sure people have no idea 

what they are and what they are going to do in the future. The way people are thinking of 

this is that they aren't organic so they are not good for our society. This is what people 

think,​ ​“Most of us have a vague idea that organic is better because it’s more natural and 

free of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and pesticides.” (SigularityHub)​.I​ f there 

wasn't gmos right now most people would not be able to feed their families or 

themselfs. There are also many other benefits of gmos like “GMOs are taking on food 

waste. New potatoes that are genetically engineered to resist bruising during shipping 

and handling are coming onto the market, and new apples that resist browning when 

sliced will reduce food waste in the market and kitchen!”(The food dialogues).Gmos are 

way cheaper than organic foods so people who can't afford can live off of them doesn't 

mean they are good for you it just means that they benefit the lower class. They haven't 

been proven that there bad for you most people just don't like them and want to stay all 

organic. Therefore they don't have a impacted on society besides that they help feed the 

lower class. 
 Scientists think that you should not use gmos because you don't know what 

affected they are going to have on you. Many people in the U.S are fat we are 

statistically the fattest country in the world. We also have statistically have the most 

food the is gmo inhanesed. So basically we are gmo lovers that are fat. Most scientist 

believe that gmos are really bad for you and you should not eat them. Some scientists 

say that there is no result of them. 

In conclusion people all around the world use gmos or have eaten or heard about 

gmos before. They all wonder they same thing are they good for you well we really don't 

know. All we know is that they might end up having a long term impacted on you if you 

consume a lot of your life. There has been no scientific studies that have a clear answer 

on this topic because the answer is complicated. Most scientist have no idea if they are 

good or bad for you they just know the facts behind the issue. We are hoping that there 

will soon be anwer but for now lay off the gmo food. You don't know the effected of 

them in the future you don't know what they will do to your health. But what you really 

don't know is if they are GOOD FOR YOU or not.
