I don't think you understand how scientific studies are performed.
Inducing change is what the study is accomplishing. Monitoring the changes and what changes occur is what the study sets out to document.
Both of those goals are accomplished in the study. Correlations between schizophrenia and bipolar disorder patients with high glucose mice brains were readily recognized.
Science isn't a god. Science is a method of study. We follow the method so that others may perform the same experiments in the future and reach similar conclusions, for proofs.
The methods we use for testing such things have been in place for decades now, and they've served us well.
If you don't understand why mice models are utilized, and why testing is done with such high percentages, then perhaps you should read more into pharmaceutical testing and development. Like I said, we've been doing this for decades now, and it serves us well.
- ivalm 5y agoI’m no against mice models, but I do think that relationship between amount and outcome are important and non-linear and what happens when 2/3rd of your calories come from something is not indicative of an effect when you consume a smaller percentage. That said, your ad hominem attacks on me are not appreciated, do better.
