Home And Garden America to Seek Opinions About Genetically Modified Vegetables
Carson City, NV, October 01, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Home and Garden America will conduct a poll on their Facebook Fan Page to determine people's preferences between genetically modified vegetables and non GMO vegetables. Since the company deals with heirloom emergency survival seeds they want to test the pulse of their fans by asking them how they feel about GMO foods, especially in light of the recent revelations of possible catastrophic health effects of genetically modified foods.
"We feel it's important to keep abreast of the changes in the food growing sector and how our customers and prospective customers feel about these changes. It's a very big question in people's minds as to what the long term effects of GMO foods might mean to their health and well being," said a company spokesperson.
Laboratory tests have been inconclusive and many people say this is because of the testing not being conducted in a manner that will deliver the truth but are designed to give a favorable outcome for the big chemical companies who want to put people at ease regarding their products. One instance cited is that the laboratory tests were run on rats for 90 days and then were stopped before any harmful effects were found.
In longer term tests, of 120 days or more, huge tumors began to appear in the laboratory animals and this is said to be the concern about the difference in results of the tests that were run. If longer term tests show negative effects then perhaps the testing was cut short purposely in order to skew the results of the tests.
"There were two main reasons for deciding to run the poll. One was to determine how aware people are of the possible harmful effects of genetically modified vegetables and the other was to find if they had a preference for one or the other. It's one thing for people to be aware of possible health risks and another thing to know if it matters enough for them to change their lifestyle to do something about it," he said.
More information is available on the company website.
