Т.е., по идее, сначала нужно длительно исследовать вред обычной пищи, чтобы сравнивать с модифицированной.
"During the last two decades a lot of attention has been paid to the safety assessment of genetically modified organisms used as food. Several international reports have indicated that the safety assessment strategy recommended for genetically modified foods to a large extent also could be used for other kinds of novel foods. Another conclusion from many of these reports is that very little is known about the potential long-term health effects of any traditional food (e.g. FAO/WHO 2000). Nonetheless, most traditional foods are treated as being safe because no widespread occurrence of acute severe adverse effects is reported after their consumption. Their safety has, however, rarely, if ever, been established. While it has been commonly accepted that for example food additives should be thoroughly tested for safety prior to use in the food production in order to secure that their level in the final food product would not constitute a human health risk, foods from new plant lines or new exotic fruits and vegetables have not been evaluated to the same extent for their potential adverse effects on human health although there are several examples of risks connected to such foods."
