Section 3—Allergy Assessment Works As Planned
Genetic Roulette is Jeffrey Smith’s second book in which he rants against biotech agriculture. In Section 3, each of those claims are stacked up against peer-reviewed science.
Section 3 Content:
- 3.1—GM soybeans are no more allergenic than conventional soybeans
- 3.2—Today’s food allergy criteria are more accurate
- 3.3—Bt crops are less likely to cause allergies or illness
- 3.4—Whole Bt-producing bacteria are safe (that’s why organic growers use it!)
- 3.5—Starlink corn was successfully recalled, caused no allergies
- 3.6—Barnase in GM crops will not cause kidney damage
- 3.7—High-lysine corn shown to be superior to conventional
- 3.8—Cooking high-lysine corn will not produce toxins
- 3.9—Disease-resistant crops do not cause human diseases
