I haven't watched the entire video, but 23 minutes in it got a bit fishy. They show part of an FDA document saying "In most cases, the substances expected to become components of food as a result of genetic modification of a plant will be the same as or substantially similar to substances commonly found in food." They then claim that this means the FDA chose to uniformly treat GMOs as equivalent to the organism they are modified from. In reality, as I learned after googling the original document, the FDA says that for a given GMO, if all substances in the food in question are those found naturally in foods in similar quantities, then the food need not be subjected to additional testing. Whether this policy is actually strict enough is unclear, but this is blatant deception on the part of the movie.
