MODERATORS
There are plenty of studies done by those wishing to push pseudoscience claims. We wouldn't have people like Andrew Wakefield otherwise.
And nutrition is one such field that has an outsized amount of pseudoscience pushers.
There are also a shit ton of studies done by food processing & manufacturing companies that are bogus. Knowing how your own body reacts to foods isn't pseudo science. You'd agree that nutrition is part of that, yes?
You sound like team cigarette! "It's made from all natural materials and plants and people have been smoking for centuries".
Oh no, I'm an actual scientist who knows molecular biology and the decades of research showcasing pseudoscience health claims to indeed be pseudoscience.
History check: it's the scientific community that showed cigarettes were bad for you years before the public ever listened to the facts.
So great, then you know that a small percentage of people can react to things that you can't explain. We're on the same page.
Interesting, I bet the cigarette companies didn't do their own studies to show everything is fine. And if they could have, go online and convince the scientific community is pseudoscience.
