I wouldn't trust a doctor compared to a bunch of eggheads who studied vitamin fanatics. Doctors are constantly misinterpreting studies. (Not to say I don't either.)
- TheCoelacanth 13y agoPeople obsessed with their health are healthier than people who aren't? That's a shocker.
- da02 13y agoI'm sorry. I should have linked to an English translation of the study: http://www.remedyspot.com/showthread.php/155664-Dietary-Supplement-Fanatics-Healthiest-Of-All http://www.remedyspot.com/showthread.php/155664-Dietary-Supp... "Nearly nine in ten multi-supplement users consumed 20 or more different kinds of supplements throughout the year... The results of the study are startling. Instead of anticipated side effects and overdosage, researchers found the following:" * Vitamin E levels among multi-supplement users were more than double that of non-users and multivitamin users. * Risk for diabetes was 73% less, coronary heart disease 52% less.. * Blood serum levels of carotenoids (beta carotene, lycopene, lutein) were three higher among multi-supplement users than non-users, and double that of multivitamin users. Except for the blood serum levels, I concede most of this does not counter your argument of correlation vs. causation.
