Wisdom Quarterly (COMMENTARY)
Avoid US corn and corn products (corn syrup, maltodextrin, chips, corn-fed beef, grain fed chicken, pig, and the countless other products that conceal cheap corn ingredients). Otherwise expect organ damage, cancers, obesity, persistent hunger, depression, mood fluctuations, migraines, fibromyalgia, and/or diabetes as the likely result of consumption. Even the best, most natural organic corn was considered a starvation crop, a starchy grass. It has been made into a dangerous frankenfood and gasoline substitute that, because it is so extremely cheap, is used in nearly all prepared/packaged foods.
