Here is a partial list of some of the most common genetically engineered Big Four ingredients in processed foods:
Corn: Corn flour, meal, oil, starch, gluten, and syrup
Sweeteners such as fructose, dextrose, and glucose
Modified food starch*
Soy: Soy flour, lecithin, protein, isolate, and isoflavone
Vegetable oil* and vegetable protein*
Canola: Canola oil (also called rapeseed oil)
Cotton: Cottonseed oil
*May be derived from other sources
In addition, GM sugar beet sugar recently entered the food supply. Look for organic and non-GMO sweeteners, candy and chocolate products made with 100% cane sugar, evaporated cane juice or organic sugar, to avoid GM beet sugar.
Sugar: Anything not listed as 100% cane sugar.
Very few frest fruits and vegetables for sale in the U.S. are genetically modified. Small amounts of zucchini, yellow crookneck squash, and sweet corn may be GM.
No GM fish, fowl, or livestock are yet approved for human consumption. Yet many are fed GM feeds, so look for wild rather than farmed fish for example, and 100% grass-fed animals.
