Eating Genetically Modified (GM) Food May be Why You are Fat

Rats that eat genetically modified corn get fatter than rats eating normal corn. There is a strong possibility that it can have the same effect on human beings

Is genetically modified food is dangerous to human beings? A recent study suggests that even if GM food isn’t directly making us sick, it might be causing us to gain weight, which then makes you sick.

Rats that ate GM corn slowly got fatter than those who hadn’t been fed GM corn over a 90-day period. They also ate more and grew much faster. When the same rats were fed fish that had eaten GM corn, they were hit with the same effects.

The larger GM food experiment is still very young and we will find out the results sooner than later. So, for now whilst we lack more scientific data, my recommendation is to stay clear from GM foods.
