[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When 3rd world countries Receive seeds from the US in the form of aid, the quality of the produce changes. The rice which is making rural Bangladesh gain substantial weight is being produced by Monsanto’s and the like. Their digestive system is not used to the genetically modified seeds and thus cannot process them. This is exactly the reason why so many people who come tomorrow live/work in the US put on large amounts of weight in a short period of time (including professional dancers who always watch what they put in their mouth).

No totally wrong.[/quote]

PP who brought up Bangladesh originally (and sorry if that derailed the thread), but I don't think this is true at all! If anything genetic modification makes rice and other grains healthier because they require fewer pesticides and thus less post-harvest treatment like parboiling which reduces the nutritional content. If there are any scientific studies related to genetic modification and obesity please share as I am really curious! [/quote]
