[QUOTE="PapiChulo, post: 233585, member: 44319"] I have noticed for decades bodybuilders, gym trainers, gym rats, etc quoting "studies" to support certain claims. While it is commendable people are reading scientific material, [URL='https://journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/article?id=10.1371/journal.pmed.0020124']most scientific studies are false.[/URL] People should be very suspicious of any scientific author making any claim whatsoever about anything. Demand excellence and, as already stated by others, the conclusions need to "reliable" (reproducible) and "accurate" (valid) before being considered as plausible. A thermometer is said to be reliable if it records the temperature of the inside of a refrigerator when it is running at the same time of day, day after day. However, the thermometer can be reflecting the incorrect temperature, which is to say it is not a valid reading. Thus the thermometer is reliable but it is not an accurate tool. For a study to be worthy of your consideration, it has to be accurate (valid) and reliable (reproducible). One of the most published and most cited scientific research authors is [URL='https://med.stanford.edu/profiles/john-ioannidis']Dr John Ioannidis, MD, PhD, at Stanford U[/URL].
