1. What are they?
1.1. They are genitically modified organisms, when its genetic material has ben recombined so they have traits that helps the production
2. Issues that concern humans
2.1. Allergenicity
2.1.1. The transfer of genes from commonly allergenic organisms to non-allergic organisms is discouraged unless it can be demonstrated
2.2. Gene transfer
2.2.1. From GM foods to cells of the body or to bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract, the possibility is really low
2.3. Outcrossing
2.3.1. The migration of genes from GM plants into conventional crops or related species in the wild, mixing of crops derived from conventional seeds with GM crops, may have an indirect effect on food safety and food security
3. Safety Conditions
3.1. The assesment of the GM food are more strict than the conventional because the authorities check that the product doesn´t harm humans neither the environment, something that in conventional food isn't check
3.2. It focuses in:
3.2.1. 1. Direct health effect
3.2.2. 2. Potential to provoke allergic reactions
3.2.3. 3. Specific components of nutrition or toxic properties
3.2.4. 4. Stability of inserted gene
3.2.5. 5. Nutritional effects associated with the genetical modification
3.2.6. 6. Any unintended effect that is associated with the genetical modification
