- gus_massa 3y agoThis is a common misunderstanding of how science works. For life changing decitions people should wait until the study has been replicated a few times, and preferabely destiled to a general advice by the FDA or whoever is in charge. Isolated papers are better than blogpost in allcaps, but they are not "setled" science. The problem is that the press release of the universities and the report by science "journalism" present these single paper result as a definitive result.
