This month let’s check out everything we need to know about GMO!
At Kyäni, we carefully select only the best ingredients for each of our products—and that means avoiding genetically modified ingredients. Read on to learn more about what it means to be Non-GMO and how we apply that to our products.
What is a GMO?
GMO stands for “genetically modified organism.” This term refers to any plant, animal, microorganism, or other organisms whose DNA or additional genetic information has been altered in a laboratory using genetic engineering or transgenic technology. GMOs create plant, animal, bacterial, and virus genes that do not occur naturally or through traditional crossbreeding methods.
Most GMOs grown in the United States are engineered to produce their own pesticides (insecticides).
What is the difference between artificial and GMO?
It’s essential to know the difference between products with artificial ingredients and GMO ingredients when choosing what to feed your family. Artificial ingredients do not occur naturally and can only be created when synthesized in a lab. GMOs started as a naturally occurring organisms, but have been genetically modified—typically to increase resilience to pests, herbicides, or other environmental factors.
What do we mean when we say Non-GMO ingredients?
Non-GMO ingredients are derived from any plant or animal product free from genetic modification. Non-GMO ingredients come from naturally occurring versions of the plants or animals they are sourced from.
What are the benefits of Non-GMO ingredients?
Though our bodies may recognize GMO and Non-GMO products as being exactly the same, many highly processed ingredients are derived from GMO products that are more difficult to digest. For example, corn starch, corn syrup, canola oil, sugar, molasses, soy lecithin, soy hemoglobin, citric acid, cellulose, maltodextrin, flavourings, vitamins, and anything that says “vegetable” but is not specific, may be genetically modified and potentially cause an imbalance within the human body.
Having Non-GMO ingredients in your products typically means a more nature-based product that is easier for the body to digest and assimilate. Products free from these highly processed ingredients are typically healthier for you and your family.
