Anti GMO = Throwing out the baby with the bath water
A genetically modified organism or GMO is used to produce insulin.
The History of Insulin
“Sequencing and synthesis of insulin
1955: Insulin is sequenced by Frederick Sanger, and is the first protein to be fully sequenced. In1958 Sanger receives the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his research in this area.
1963: Insulin becomes the first human protein to be chemically synthesized.
1978: Insulin is then the first human protein to be manufactured through biotechnology, using bacteria to grow the insulin protein by a company called Genentech.
1982: Synthetic insulin is named ‘human insulin’ marking it as distinct from insulin derived from animals. Human insulin has the advantage of being less likely to allergic reactions than animal insulin. Humilin, manufactured by Eli Lilly, becomes widely available through the 1980s.
Analogue insulin
1996: Eli Lilly markets the analogue insulin lispro under the trade name Humalog. Analogue insulin is a genetically modified form of insulin whereby the amino acid sequence is altered to change how the insulin is absorbed, distributed, metabolized and excreted. [83]”

Millions of people inject themselves with this GMO produced, lifesaving chemical every day.
