Nowadays, the number of genetically-modified food is steadily increasing. There is an argument that whether this kind of food should be stopped . As far as I am concerned , genetically-modified food should not be stopped.

Firstly, there is necessity for genetically-modified food to exist. Genetically-modified food belongs to food. The world is lack of resources. Every day, millions of people around the world eat only the bare minimum of food to keep themselves alive. They will be very grateful for having this kind of food to survive.

Secondly, it is easier for us to plant genetically-modified food. At the same time, the production cost is also greatly reduced. As a result ,food prices will increasingly low. There is no doubt that it is good news for consumers.

Thirdly, It will reduce the use of pesticides and then avoid the pollution of the environment.

In addition, genetically-modified food can bring us many other benefits, for example, increasing food nutrition, increasing the types of food and so on.

However，although genetically-modified food have so many advantages, some people still insist that they should never eat

genetically-modified food. They are afraid of potential threat that this kind of food will be harm to their health. In fact ,genetically-modified food has passed the the strict test of international organizations. It is safe. There has been no evidence to prove that genetically-modified food is harm to humans so far. To some extent, we can consider this kind of food to be perfectly safe. As you know, at present there is a lot of genetically-modified food in the market, such us genetically-modified soybean ,Transgenic papaya and so on. Many people have eaten this kind of food for some years, but we have not exactly confirmed that some one falls ill after eating genetically-modified food.So there is no need to worry much about the safety problem. We can eat them as we like.

All in all, we should not stop genetically-modified food. But, this kind of food may cause some people’s allergic reactions. So in the process of producing genetically-modified food, we should eliminate the genes which can cause allergic reactions and do the digestion experiment in order to avoid the harm to human body.
