The problem I have with the chart you posted (and what I read all the time) is that it could be the GMO corn that is an issue or it could be the Roundup.

If you read the footnotes, the Non-GMO was planted in soil that had not had any Roundup on it for 5 years. The GMO corn was planted in soil that had had Roundup for 10 years.

In the businessinsider article that was posted, the rats were subjected to both GMO corn and Roundup.

So, is it the corn or the Roundup.

My bet is on the Roundup, that stuff is very deadly.

There is no such thing anymore as natural corn. By the time the Spanish hit the Western Hemisphere the Indians had already been manipulating corn for thousands of years. To the point that there was no wild corn. GMO is pretty much the same thing in reality just going directly against the DNA instead of selectively cultivating.
