To: caveat emptor

*sigh*

I’ve learned a long time ago that people pick up all sorts of health-related nonsense and latch onto it like a religious belief.

All I do is attempt to spread the facts, the most reliable we have, which are those learned through actual controlled research, published in peer-review journals. If you choose to reject that in favor of... I dunno where much of that stuff floating out there comes from, but whatever... there is not much I or anyone else can do about that.

When I told how you can verify what I said through Google (and by being selective about the “hits” you look at, such as choosing to look at Mayo Clinic instead of some vitamin manufacturer), that goes for EVERYTHING I have said. In fact, even when I’m sure of the facts I’m saying, I still Google them to double check. If you doubt ANYTHING I have said in any post—Google is a quick way to check it.

While you’re trying to look for discrepancies in what I said, let me point out that I was being very clear when I said “our” lifespans (as in, the lifespans of anyone who is likely to read this, which would be a citizen of a first-world country, most likely the US), and when I said that I read that the leading cause of death (up to 3 years ago) is still infectious disease, where I used no adjective to specify any particular group.

Finally, let me point out that I did not initiate any posts to you. All of my posts have been responses to yours.

You must work for a vitamin company...otherwise, you wouldn’t be so threatened by the idea that people should try to eat healthy diets instead of popping handfuls of pills in an attempt to compensate for poor nutrition and lack of fitness. After all, Big Vitamin is a multi-billion dollar industry...

Phew.

"Finally, let me point out that I did not initiate any posts to you. All of my posts have been responses to yours."

Well, firstly, it wasn't finally. You had to sling more mud before you could finally sign off.

You seem distraught and delusional - so verbose, prattling on and on, sometimes incomprehensibly.

What could anyone make of this gibberish?

Pffft.
