[QUOTE="dnfuss, post: 123907, member: 15487"] Apparently, you're not willing to "plow through" any studies. You really ought to have a defensible intellectual position if you're attempting to refute someone else's. Based on what? Your statement is simply a conclusion. Your argument, such as it is, is utter [I]ad hominem[/I]. I.e., they must be wrong because they're kooks, at least someone I'm quoting says they are. And by the way, it is generally considered appropriate to cite your source when you quote multiple paragraphs verbatim from someone else's writing. Otherwise the reader might think you're actually the author of all that italicized material in your post. This is a very complicated scientific issue with extremely serious implications for both individual medical diagnosis and treatment and public health policy. A cogent discussion of the evidence mandates a thorough digestion of a very large number of clinical studies going back many decades. If you would like to be part of such a reasoned discussion, I'm sure everyone would appreciate the point of view you'd bring to the table. If you simply want to assert that the position cited in the reference in post #3 must be wrong because lots of people say it is, that adds nothing of value. [/QUOTE]
