With a growing population, many people believe that we should focus on producing more GM foods. What are the advantages and disadvantages of doing this?

Nowadays, increase in population is one of the major concerns in many countries. While an escalating population is an issue, many think that GM foods should be given more priority. In

this

essay I will discuss both the positive and the negative outcome of

such

initiative. The main benefit of growing genetically modified

food

items is to save

time

.

This

is because genetic modification

food

takes less

time

to grow when compared to the natural process of producing

food

.

For example

, farmers in India use chemicals while growing crops in order to produce quickly which means it curtail the amount of

time

.

Moreover

, genetic modified foods can be grown substantially at a

time

, which is a feasible solution to satisfy the hungry of a huge population.

This

can be illustrated when we look at China’s genetic

food

growing policy in order to supply vegetables, fruits, pulses and other eatables to their people even though they are the world’s highest populated country.

Therefore

, if no fertilizer were used to grow crops faster,

then

conjunction used in comparatives

than

many people of the high populated countries would have suffered famine and hunger. Looking at the negative aspect, of genetic modified foods is it may lead to health problems.

This

is due to over-using of chemical may add toxic nutrients to the foods which can potential any side effects to the consumer.

For instance

, if chemicals are used to grow

food

, rather than opting natural process,

this

can cause allergic reactions to some and some may

also

suffer from hormonal imbalances.

Furthermore

, it may certainly reduce the nutrients from the foods which means no proper nutrients and vitamins are transferred to the body.

As a result

, if

this

happens

then

the body will become vulnerable to diseases, due weak immune system. In conclusion,

although

growing foods through GM is a beneficial method as it can cut-down the

time

and produce in large supplies, but it

also

has drawbacks to the consumers in terms of health problems and poor immunity power. So, both pros and cons should be considered before adapting

such

process.
