Dr.
Wayne Parrott of the University of Georgia says the makers of non-GMO breakfast
cereals are short of vitamin supplements.
He
says the only manufacturer or non-GMO vitamins closed recently, so neither Grape
Nuts Flakes nor “original Cheerios” can be fortified, as they have been in the
past, with vitamins.
Parrot
says Post GrapeNuts Cereal has a whole host of missing nutrients and Cheerios
is missing Vitamin-B 2.
The
vast majority of vitamins and enzymes and other food additives are produced
through genetic modifications using micro-organisms such as yeast, Parrot says.
He is a crop scientist.
