I've been a big critic of the medical profession, feeling that doctors get little if any dietary/nutritional training. They just prescribe the same drugs that the FDA approves that are sold to them by the drug company salesmen that knock on their doors.

And then, in their defense....

I look at all the various "studies" that are out there about how certain foods are good for you one week, then will contribute to your demise the next. Look at the roller coaster ride we've been on, for example with just two foods- coffee and eggs- over the past what? 40 years? Good God! And those are just the tip of the berg.

And this leads me to believe something else. These government funded studies are pretty lucrative. You propose to do a study for hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of dollars to investigate a product. How many, I wonder, come out inconclusive? Well I don't think that's an option we'll ever hear about because there is ALWAYS an end result that has to be reported, and that is what you see and hear on tv, in newspapers and on the net. You can't do a study and not have an end result. Might be hard to get a grant to do another study if you don't have conclusive "results".

I might sound like a conspiracy theorist with that last paragraph, but money controls everything in this world, and it often masks the truth.
