Again, as I said it is older but I would be interested in reading newer articles contradicting this one.
I do. Here's a challenge for you. Find one peer reviewed paper that links the use of commercial PINE bedding to documented health issues - not anecdotal inferences to elevated hepatic function.

Reading such articles is pointless unless you understand what, for example, the data means in relation to hepatic function. As I said before, these opinion papers published by bunny and rat aficionados have been torn apart for years.
