This looks as though Monstanto’s GMO corn could be very dangerous, but I’m not really qualified to judge the study—for example, what if the strain of rats is unusually vulnerable?
Edited to add: Yeah, tumor-prone rats, and since the 200 rats were divided into 10 groups, small sample sizes. Still, the effects were pretty large.
Thanks for posting the link to Orac. I didn’t know he was still posting regularly there. I’m excited to read his dissection of the study when I have some spare time.
Thank you very much!

Orac: The study is nonsensical.
Would other people here care to take a look at that study?
Also, I’m still concerned that lifespan (or even multigenerational) studies are so rare.
