Yet even supporters of the research worry it could provoke a public reaction similar to the one that has limited the acceptance of genetically modified crops.

Is there any credibly documented case of anyone, at any time or anywhere being harmed by a genetically modified crop?

Not a case, V, but I can speak from personal experience.

A lot of the HFCS used in foods comes from genetically modified corn. Once I stripped it out of my diet, and the diets of my children, our health improved substantially.

FTR, ate healthy to begin with. Lots of vegetables, salads, baked chicken; not a lot of sweets. I'm 5'8 and weight 125 lbs. Don't drink (not even beer or wine) or do drugs.

It's used in a ton of foods. Ketchup, jelly (kids loved PB&Js), boxed juices for lunches, etc. Was amazed to see it everywhere. Took a while to weed it all out and find replacements.

Also, any sweets or treats my family wants now I bake from scratch.

Conclusive proof? No, I admit. But if you saw how ill I was last year versus the person I am today, you would be surprised.
