I found this story on GlutenFreeville and had to take the time to pass it on. The European Food Safety Authority’s Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) Panel believes it's possible that GMO foods could lead to food allergies.
“It is possible that GM food and feed could contain proteins which may cause food allergies in both people and animals. Because of this, EU legislation requires that the possibility of allergens in GMOs and food and feed derived from GMOs be assessed before these products are placed on the market.”
This makes me so happy. I'm glad that someone is recognizing that GMO foods may be accountable for the rise in food allergies. I don't believe it's the only cause, but I do believe that GMO foods contribute. I will be following this study to see the outcome. I do feel that GMOs are part of the reason for my food intolerances.
