Genetically modified foods research...

[Flaxbee]

I'm doing some research on GM foods, and have, as you might imagine, come across a lot of info on Google. Anyone here have info on any particularly good sites/articles/research? I'm trying to find a shortcut through all the info on the web, and hope some of you guys can give me a few good places to start.

Thanks!

3. You're welcome

FYI, most of the skeptical research (and debate) on GM food is being done in the EU, so I think you will find more information there:

4. Book: Seeds of Deception

by Jeffrey Smith

excellent book

contains a good discussion of the questions about the instructions from, and behavior of genes that should be answered BEFORE this stuff is let loose on the market.

Be sure to acquaint yourself with the story of Dr. Arpad Pusztai - found damaged immune systems; damaged thymuses and spleens, less developed brains, livers and testicles, enlarged pancreases and intestines, proliferation of cells in stomach and intestines in rats after only 10 days of feeding them GM potatoes. Puztai found this was caused by the methods employed in modifying genes.

This was a huge story in Europe. Puztai's was ruined, his work altered and then hidden. The story is in Seeds of Deception
