Organ Damage in Rats that Consume GMO Corn
DH just sent me this, I think it is interesting. Just another reason to avoid processed foods!

Re: Organ Damage in Rats that Consume GMO Corn
LOL, DH just sent me a Huffington Post article about the same thing, I'd just come here to post it.
I wonder how they "consume" it. I'd like to see the studies.
In reading a lot of the BPA stuff, in many of the studies they use rats (who fyi do not always metabolize things the same way as humans), and they inject liquid BPA at a rate of 10,000 times what people would be consuming into their blood stream--and then publish reports (much like this) that don't really mimic the same way that humans would consume BPA (or possibly GMOs--again I didn't read the study so I don't know the methods).
The liver and kidney are super important to keeping our blood nice and clean. If they fail, you die. This makes me scared
