Your Food Choices Directly Affect Your Health

If food has the possibility to make you sick, then doesn't food hold the power to make you healthy?

GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms) started to hit the food market as early as the 1990s; however, awareness has increased greatly in the past few years.

And, even though the topic GMOs has gained notoriety in health articles and news conversations, many people are still unaware of foods that contain GMOs.

Blame it on the fast, chaotic pace of life you're living... now more than ever you're relying on quicker food options, which causes you to think less about what you're putting in your mouth and the potential health hazards.

Also, you may not know that you're the reason for the GMOs in your food. Relying on fast and processed foods and constantly spending money on these options creates a higher demand for these products. As a result, certain crops are more likely to become genetically engineered to keep up with the demand. These foods include corn, soy and animal products (milk, meat, eggs).

Aside from GMOs, don't forget about the packaged goods that contain extreme amounts of sugar and preservatives to ensure a longer shelf life.
