Sadly Larry I am not html proficient but I have indeed read several studies.
One was recently posted on another recent GMO thread regarding bT and it’s effects on human kidneys. Our overall health is greatly due to the health of our gut bacteria, how putting spliced viruses and pesticide producing crops in that mix could be healthy is beyond me.

Study: Bt Toxin Kills Human Kidney Cells

… Bt has been used for years as a naturally-derived pesticide; the big difference here is that Monsanto’s gene-splicing wizards made corn and other food-bearing plants grow the Bt internally. When it’s used in organic agriculture you can just wash the Bt off with water; you can’t do that when it’s inside ever cell of the corn you’re eating.

...A new study shows that low doses of Bt biopesticide CryA1b as well as the glyphosate herbicide, Roundup, kill human kidney cells. The Bt biopesticide conferring insect resistance and the glyphosate tolerance trait tied to the use of glyphosate herbicides account for almost all the GM crops grown worldwide.

… These studies, along with the observation that Bt protein is present in the blood of pregnant women and their babie
