Doing some personal research a while back revealed to me that diet studies in general have ridiculously low standards. The vast, vast majority of them are volunteer, self-journaled data based that would be laughed out of any other scientific context. Controlled group studies are almost entirely non-existent and are typically limited to very specific conditions and goals, such as diets for epileptics. I hope at some point we'll sit down and do a proper broad study on different diets where all meals are controlled for x amount of time and get a range of data that you could further divide and conquer and figure such a crucial part of our existence out.
