I know exactly what you mean about studies skewing the information to serve their purposes. One huge example I always refer to is a lot of the information about the 'health benefits' of soy products. I'm sure ADM doesn't fund this stuff, right? haha... Hey Joe – believe it or not, I only JUST figured out how to reply to comments 2 minutes ago…

The problem with most “science” and “studies” in health, especially weight loss is that it’s mostly marketing. It’s easy to find a correlation and then paste a favourite idea about why… but it’s not science. It makes it hard to discern truth from fiction; quite a disservice to the reset of us. :(

However, that doesn’t mean that it’s not interesting.

Thanks for the brain ticking session. :)
