...research analyzes 206 studies on the health effects of juice, milk, and soft drinks - all of them published over the five-year period ending Dec. 31, 2003, and archived in the National Library of Medicine's online database, Medline. Ludwig says his team focused on beverages because they provided a discreet, easily analyzed sample to test the hunch that nutritional science might be skewed by industry dollars. (More studies would be needed to assess the impact of sponsorship on food research, which the study did not address...

...farmers and breeders voluntarily agreed not to sell any meat or milk from cloned animals to the public. They were willing to wait until the FDA could determine whether these foods were safe for human consumption, and wouldn't pose any health risks to people. This FDA report does not change that moratorium...
...Breeders are constantly looking to produce the highest-quality, highest-yield animals they can. Just as crop farmers create hybrid strains that can resist drought and disease, animal breeders want to target healthy animals that are good milk or meat producers. Cloning such elite stock is one way to maximize their yield...
...Probably not, according to the data the FDA analyzed. That's because even if the FDA eventually gives the go-ahead, meat or milk from the cloned animals themselves will likely not be what is for sale. Instead, breeders will almost certainly use cloned animals as they use prize bulls - they will mate them in the natural way, and it will be the offspring whose food products will end up on supermarket shelves. Based on studies of cloned cattle, pigs and goats born so far, any genetic defects generated by cloning seem to be limited to the clones themselves...
