Transgenic food.


http://www.csa.com/discoveryguides/gmfood/overview.php

Here there is an article which is about transgenics. In the article you can find a lot of information about them.
But, what is a transgenic?

It´s a living being containing genetic material artificially transferred from another species

What benefits do transgenic have?
First, manipulating DNA we can get more nutritious food.  Also, it´s easier to grow them so they are also cheaper. And also we can have them in our fridge for longer.

But, there are also some disadvantages of them.
The most important thing is that we don´t know what transgenics can cause to our body. Besides, in some countries transgenics aren´t labeled.
From my point of view transgenic should be labeled because everyone should know what are they eating and decide to eat them or not.
