What? What exactly do you expect dekhn to cite? You expect them to prove a negative? How do you propose they do that?
GP asserted that some scary chemicals cause problems (no sarcasm intended; I find phthalates and bisphenols a bit scary myself), but provided no supporting evidence. dehkn asked for evidence. Pretty simple right?
- cryoshon 9y ago>You expect them to prove a negative? How do you propose they do that? they do this all the time in the pharma space. just arrange experiments on mice where they're subjected to higher and higher levels of whatever chemical until they're subjected to a level several orders of magnitude beyond any realistic hypothetical human exposure. then you cut up all the mice and see if they're different from unexposed mice.
- KekDemaga 9y agoI've had 6 pet rats in my life and each one had tumors at the end. I wonder if that effect is properly controlled for as well.
- zaphods-towel 9y ago...yes, it is controlled for. Read the comment above you again. They compare exposed rats to unexposed rats. That accounts for your concern.
