Genetically modified food (GM food) refers to food products that have been derived from organisms whose genetic material (DNA) has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. This process is done to introduce new traits or characteristics to the organism, such as improved resistance to pests or diseases, enhanced nutritional content, or increased shelf life. The most common method of genetic modification involves the use of recombinant DNA technology, where specific genes from one organism are inserted into the genome of another.
