The dangers of genetically modified organisms have been well documented. GMOs were first introduced in 1996. Since then, studies suggest that Americans with three or more chronic illnesses jumped from 9 percent to 13 percent. Autism has skyrocketed, and so has food allergies. There has been a sharp rise in autoimmune diseases, infertility, and gastrointestinal problems. Coincidence? Probably not. As of 2010, 80 percent of corn and 90 percent of soybeans grown in the U.S. were grown from modified seeds.
