Warrant: The insertion of new genes leads to an increase in health risks Dona, Artemis. "Health Risks of Genetically Modified Food." Taylor and Francis Group. University of Athens, Medical School. Web. 4 Oct. 2014. t _Risks_GMOs.pdf>. insertion of a new gene can sometimes lead to increase in existing levels of “The anti-nutrients, some of which cannot be reduced with heat treatment (Bakke- McKellep et al., 2007). One of the most widely available commercial GM products nowadays glyphosate-resistant Roundup Ready soybean may display an increase in anti- nutrients. Heat-stable anti-nutrients such as phytoestrogens, glucinins, and phytic acid were also found to cause infertility problems in sheep and cattle, allergenic reations and binding to phosphorus and zinc thereby making them unavailable to the animal respectively.” Impact: GMO’s have been shown to have health risks to consumers.
