Secret Monsanto Genetically Engineered Potato Study Suppressed for 8 Years

In comparison the rats in the “control groups” which were fed on normal potatoes or on a non-potato diet were healthier, and had much less organ and tissue damage. This research, fully supported by Monsanto through the provision of the GM potatoes, was conducted at approximately the same time as Arpad Pusztai’s research in the Rowett Institute.
