    Quote taken from one of the articles:
    "But according to the most recent evidence, the Frankenfish could contain higher levels of the cancer causing promoting hormone IGF-1, require more anti biotic and higher levels of life threatening allergens."

    Don't know a great deal about this subject. But I do remember the hub bub about GE vegetables, Which we are all eating now. An almost everything as far as animal products have been linked to cancer at one point or another.. From my point of view chemicals have been proven to harm us. There isn't anything else we can do but adjust the gene's it improve products these days, better than consuming chemicals that are proven to harm you. Just my point of view

    Pure water is fatal in many ways. If you drink too much you can die, you can drown in it etc. etc. Should we outlaw it?

    And don't forget living is eventually fatal too.

    Everything can potentially cause cancer. And don't forget it's our own bodies that produce the cancer cells.
