GMO's

3 Regarding more and more studies being conducted by both the U.S. and Multiple E.U. countries showing that GMO's are actually safe for both human and animal consumption.

Has anyone dealt with patients that refuse GMO foods in hospital yet receive medications made in a lab?
Had patients who wanted all food and meds too being "cruelty-free" (whatever that might mean), organic, non-GMO, "with sea salt only", etc. Luckily, we share building with another hospital where administration goes through the roof with "customer service". So, I can afford to never argue but just call some of those "customer champions" from the kitcheb and let them sweat there. I can teach about why GMO food is kinda VERY highly unlikely to implore any harm onto one's health but it takes way too much time.From my personal experience: hospital cafeteria and kitchens are worse than any average restaurant in terms of isolation techniques, cross-contamination, exchanges, etc., so if you need or want to have something special/totally avoid something, please either try to choose hospital accordingly (some large places routinely provide kosher, halal, veg and other options) or inform personnel and dietitian and try to arrange food delivery from home or other source of your choice. It can be a bit complicated but usually doable and much more comfortable for everyone. Just make sure you follow the diet your doctor ordered.

Really hoping to see if Dieticians or Diet oriented nurses have had any indepth converstaions regarding GMOs and safety.

You would think but I've seen Doctors, PT,OT, EMTs, and Family members on this site in the past.
