    Sounds gross. But if it's much more healthy I'm fine but I wouldn't want to be the first guinea pig to be trying this out.

    I agree with the healthy part, but from human genes?

    Well it's not exracted from the human themselves. It just sounds gross but they are genetic engineer food so I'm pretty sure we all have eaten some genetic engineer food over the yrs. I would love to see the study on people feeding on GE food vs non-GE food and see the results.

    A lot of crops have been genetically engineered to grow bigger, have more taste, grow quicker, last longer, etc. You're eating genetically engineered food and not even knowing it.

    As well, lots of products we use today are derived from animal products, including humans. This article is merely a sensationalist attempt to gross people out.

    That's the scary thing. I mean we are what we eat, drink and breathe. I mean what would happen if you live off GE food for centuries and how would we react the food that's naturally grown? I'm pretty sure our mutation as a human will differ from a non-GE food eating person. But by how much? But if we perfected our GE on the food than I'm safe to say we are in good hand. Our body pretty much will adapt to it. I'm just thinking about an apocalypse situation where we have to go back to eating natural food and what will happen to us when our body been use to GE food for centuries. I'm pretty sure the nautral food will be lacking since our body adapt to the more advance GE food so we become from a super human lifespan back to a regular lifespan.
