Nowadays a problem of genetically modified food is widespread all over the world. People worry about their health and the health of descendants‚ because GM is considered to be very harmful. Along with disadvantages there are advantages‚ too. Like humans‚ all organisms have genetic material. When scientists alter genetic material‚ or DNA‚ it’s called genetic modification (GM). Genetically modifying foods or food crops can enhance taste and quality‚ increase nutrients or improve resistance to pests
