It is not to say rice isn’t healthy for you, it’s got plenty of carbohydrates, eh, but bioengineers have spliced some human immune genes into the grain of rice to provide some human proteins in your daily helping of rice.

The protein will be harvested from the rice to make medicine for newborns and toddlers to help with diarrhea, dehydration, and other ailments, that can be deadly.

Another bit for organic food supporters to debate over, there are worries that this rice will mix with other, unmodified rice, and cause some allergies or medical reactions. However, the growers of this rice insist that the rice is grown and harvested in isolated environment.
