GMO is an abbreviation for "genetically modified organism." We avoid using GMOs in our products for several reasons. One of the major ones is our commitment to providing organic herbs and supplements that have not been chemically altered.
The organic certification process bans the use of genetically modified organisms in any form throughout the entire cultivation process—from farming to the processing of organic products.
That means that if a product is certified organic, it is by its very nature non-GMO. If a product is certified non-GMO, it doesn't mean it is organic or meets organic standards.
Banyan Botanicals is 100% certified organic, meaning we never use GMOs or, for that matter, chemical pesticides, antibiotics, or synthetic fertilizers—which are also prohibited when growing organically.
Here's a resource where you can learn more about the difference between organic and non-GMO.
