A member asked:
One minute it seems certain foods are good for you & the next they're somehow linked to disease. how do we make sense of conflicting study results?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Our ignorance: The food pyramid gets turned on its head every 10 to 15 years. Food and health experts quote medical news articles and poor studies that are usually done in animals. Remember, people want interesting things, it doesn't matter if they are factual. 90% of what I know is True, is probably False. don't look for miracles, look for common sense.
