    1. Over a third of the world's population exists on a diet which is partially corn. It's not the most nutritious, but not really harmful. Of course, the agriculture methods vary and pesticide use is an issue, as is genetically modified seed.
    2. On the other hand, if you're eating whole kernel corn, I'm not sure it digests that well. Usually looks the same in output mode as input.
    3. Your dog can eat anything. I have seen dogs eat unspeakable revolting food with no side effects. A diet of pure corn would lead to deficiencies.

    I think corn is good for your health but don't about your dog.

    Eating corn (raw) and spinach will help preserve your eyes (in other words your sight), as you get older! So eat corn, good and does you a favour as well! :)

    Corn is nutritious and one of the energy rich grain available not only for humans but also for animals. So, there is no problem in taking corn but mix it with some other grains to get all the nutrients available for your body :D

    A corn cob happens to be the perfect size to get STUCK in your dog's intestine, usually the duodenum. It isn't safe to feed your dog corncobs.

    Although, if it's just loose corn then it's not bad for your dog.

    Corn is great entertainment value. Just throw a few cobs on the fire and you have an instant firecracker session :D

    I like pop corn.

    I grew my own corn this year and it was a killer. You have to pick, cook, and eat corn as soon within a few hours, or the sugar turns to starch.

    If you've never grown your own corn, put it on your life achievement 'to do' list :p

    It infact is brilliant for you, although at times, it can lead to an upset stomach. For your dog it's very good too, but many a time, dogs don't like it (like mine :lol: )
