So the body uses its energy to combat all these added toxins and our immune system gets overloaded and can't cope with that it was designed to cope with. This can lead to auto immune disorders, as the body has difficulty distinguishing what needs to be dealt with and what is suppose to be there. This is a very simplistic example but I think you get the idea. I certainly am not against good sound genetic studies to enhance our food and our being.

What a coincidence, I just went to a lecture by a nutritionist/doctor and he said something similar, which I had never heard before. He said some plant seeds for wheat are coated with roundup and that some of it gets into the end product.
