How many of these science papers are subject to repeated experiments? Without that you get the weekly flip on whether coffee is good for you or bad based on very thin data...

Are you throwing shade on the Word of Wisdom?

[Reily]

There’s a huge repeatability problem in academic publication world. The worst fields for repeatability are the social sciences and believe it not medicine.

Are you throwing shade on the Word of Wisdom?

His comment appears unrelated,

Coffee isn’t even mentioned in section 89 of the D&C.

The following is mentioned, and I find worthy of thought and action.

18 And all saints who remember to keep and do these sayings, walking in obedience to the commandments, shall receive health in their navel and marrow to their bones;

19 And shall find wisdom and great treasures of knowledge, even hidden treasures;

20 And shall run and not be weary, and shall walk and not faint.

21 And I, the Lord, give unto them a promise, that the destroying angel shall pass by them, as the children of Israel, and not slay them. Amen.

Verse 18 implies obediance to all of God’s commandments as well as “these sayings” for the word to be applicable.

Lastly, God in the beginning of the revelation to the Prophet Joseph Smith gives his reason for the “word of wisdom”.

4 Behold, verily, thus saith the Lord unto you: In consequence of evils and designs which do and will exist in the hearts of conspiring men in the last days, I have warned you, and forewarn you, by giving unto you this word of wisdom by revelation.
