Editor's Notes

  1. We have entered an age where we have the technology to modify foods and add nutrients that don’t normally exist in them. Genetically modified foods are often looked at in a negative light by environmentalists, however, it is possible to use the technology responsibly to temporarily alleviate the epidemic of malnutrition.
