'Non-GMO' Labels Don't Make Food Safer; Airhead Actress Peddles Useless 'Natural' Tylenol

from ACSH Science Dispatch · host ACSH

The cause of death remains unclear. But there's an interesting lesson here about the uselessness of "non-GMO" food labels. Actress Jessica Biel sells all-natural Tylenol—which is identical to plain ole' Tylenol. Another case of dubious health marketing? Yep.
