I don't know about this study, but yes, Numico did pay the professor that did a
previous PCB study (dr. Sauer, who actually was/is a commisioner at Numico
board). He hesitated, but as a scientist had to admit that allthough breastmilk
did contain dangerous-high amounts of PCBs, the children that were fed by it
didn't do worse, and often even better, neurologically spoken, than the
artificially fed counterparts.
