What does GMO mean?
GMO stands for genetically modified organisms. Genetic Modification involves a set of technologies that alter the genetic makeup of such living organisms as animals, plants, or bacteria. Combining genes from different organisms is known as recombinant DNA technology, and the resulting organism is said to be “genetically modified,” “genetically engineered,” or “transgenic.” Soy is a plant that is widely genetically modified. NEWTREE uses less than 1% of soy lecithin as an emulsifier. Our soy lecithin as well as all of our ingredients are certified 100% GMO free.
