Yes, this is a blow to the "GMO is safe" crowd. Thank goodness science is doing something useful once in awhile.
A study has indicated that the RNA from the foods we eat stays in the body and alters genetic expression. The example given is that the micro RNA from rice, via altering what genes turn on and off, causes the body to raise LDL.

"No fate but what we make"- Sarah Connor, Terminator 2
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, steak in one hand, chocolate in the other, yelling "Holy F***, What a Ride!"

Why I don't worry about cholesterol:
Lyon Diet Heart Trial
Get With The Guidelines admission data
Sydney Diet Heart Study revisited
INTERHEART Study
Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease with a Mediterranean Diet
The problem with modern medicine is that doctors don't view the prescription of drugs as a failure to keep you healthy
Link fixed (I think.)

Thanks. Apart from the broader implications, makes me think I need to reduce my rice consumption to keep the quacks happy

That is really interesting, will watch to see whatelse transpires, that could be significant.
"You are what you eat"
Makes sense. I'm mainly red meat and fat with some salt, and that's what I eat too, tho they keep saying it'll KILL ME.

The book, "Deep nutrition" follows along with this way of thinking. I'm reading it again now. Basically the animal parts that we eat correspond to our own parts as to benefit. I.e., animal liver helps our livers, etc.
Excellent book.
