The Raw Food Health Empowerment Podcast
Health & Fitness
Food is not the only thing being genetically engineered.
Parents are using IVF and preimplantation genetic testing and choosing to implant embryos less likely to have certain genetic diseases and chromosomal disorders. Others are using prenatal testing to detect genetic abnormalities and, in some cases, choosing to terminate pregnancies. Gene editing tools will allow for designer babies where parents can remove or add characteristics with sophisticated levels of detail. You can select a baby who is tall, has a high IQ, and is an extrovert.
The time is here where we need to think about our values and ethics around this. Where do we stand on this genetic manipulation? How much of taxpayer dollars should we allow for everyone to have access to this technology? What are the implications for implicit bias and it’s effect on the population with people having access to make these God-like decisions?
We discuss this and more on today’s episode.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
🗣️ How genetic engineering works
🗣️ How it can cure diseases but there's a caveat
🗣️ How genetic engineering could affect society
