3 Things You Must Know About GMOs

Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are a controversial topic in the farming and nutrition communities. At Purely Inspired®, we believe everyone should educate themselves about health and nutrition.

pesticides

1. They could be creating a vicious cycle of pesticide use

One of the main arguments people use in support of GMOs is that they can be developed to be pest resistant without the need to add pesticides. Unfortunately, pests are expected to eventually evolve to the point that they overcome GMO deterrents. Farmers may then have to use stronger chemicals to ward off these pests, eventually making pesticide usage higher than ever.

2. It’s more than just your produce

GMOs are used in a vast variety of prepackaged goods, so look beyond the produce section. Purely Inspired has non-GMO Organic Protein and non-GMO Organic Greens if you’re looking for alternatives!

3. Effects are still uncertain

Although there isn’t 100% conclusive evidence on the side effects that come along with GMO products, some food scientists believe there are reasons to be cautious. More importantly, we don’t know what a lifetime of eating GMOs may do to the human body.

Don’t panic! Consumers still have a choice. There are still plenty of non-GMO products available, you just have to look for the special label, as seen on our Organic Protein and Organic Greens, which indicates something is non-GMO. Be sure to share this with a friend to keep them eating purely too!

The Importance of Fiber

Fiber is a type of carbohydrate that is not digested in the body. Most carbs (bread, pasta, rice, cereal) are broken down into sugar molecules, but fiber cannot be broken down into sugar. Instead, it passes through the body undigested.

It seems like everyone today knows about the importance of protein and taking products like Purely Inspired® 100% Plant-Based Protein, but what about fiber? Many people are now avoiding various high-fiber wheat products due to gluten sensitivities, which isn’t a bad thing. The problem is they are failing to replace this lost fiber content in their diets. Fresh fruits and vegetables are packed with healthy fiber and can help you more fiber in your diet. See the chart below for some examples of high-fiber fruits and vegetables:

FRUIT/VEGETABLESERVING SIZETOTAL FIBER (GRAMS)*
Artichoke, cooked1 medium10.3
Green peas, cooked1 cup8.8
Raspberries1 cup8
Pear, with skin1 medium5.5
Broccoli, boiled1 cup5.1
Apple, with skin1 medium4.4

*Fiber content can vary between brands.

Fiber works to help keep you feeling full! Purely Inspired® 100% Plant-Based Protein is packed with 7g of fiber in every serving! This makes it easier to get the right amount of protein and fiber in your diet, all in one tasty smoothie!
