The deeply flawed study that linked less heart disease to fish oil relied on public health records and hearsay. That doesn't seem like such a deep flaw, at least not for fish oil, in light of thousands of other studies that may confirm the hearsay was right or right about something other than heart disease.
- makomk 12y agoIt's a pretty deep flaw given that Inuits apparently didn't have the same level of access to doctors as the groups they were comparing them to and therefore heart disease amongst them simply wasn't being reported in public health records, despite no actual underlying difference in the rate of heart disease.
