I agree the research isn’t there to the same rigor as other fields. Thus I too don’t like to rely too heavily on it. My experience is N=1, anecdotal, but the subjective difference is astonishing. And although correlation != causation, it can imply it. It took a few months of eating consistently to see results, and taking detailed logs daily with subjective rating system made it as close to “scientific” for myself, to review change over time. Alas that isn’t true science, and I’m not sure how we can truly test nutrition, ethically. Studies in other animals have similar effects as epidemiological studies: they point to variables we should casually test.
