I want to talk about the problem with

research studies the first point I want

to bring up is just the assumption that

medicine is scientific okay because

medical doctors were white lab coats in

so do scientists so therefore its

scientific right but medicine has become

the management of symptoms using drugs

which then give side effects which then

you add more drugs and just keeps going

around around to me that’s not science

now I’m not talking about emergency care

you break a bone I’m talking about just

the amount of medication given to people

I think it’s like four billion

prescriptions every single year that’s

thirteen drugs for every man woman and

child to me that’s a bit too much now

the first problem with research studies

is the interpretation very few people

can actually interpret what they mean

because it’s encoded in a special

language and you also have to have some

basic physiology to be able to

understand it as well so now you’re

relying on someone else interpreting it

for you and of course who knows if

they’re biased if they’re taking an

objective view will exactly what was

shown in the study but I think it’s even

third hand information because you have

the researcher that’s doing their

interpretation of the data and then you

have someone interpreting and then you

get this this funnel effect you know and

then some people actually get their

information from the media

interpretation of the study so it gets

watered down even more you can probably

get the opposite finding if you listen

to the media but the point is that very

few people can interpret and really

understand what the study says and let

alone actually read the study very few

people even read the study they they’ll

just get their information from someone

else who read it online or something

number two I don’t know if you realize

this but seventy-five percent of the

studies and journals are funded by big

pharma so right there that really lowers

the credibility of the study number

three data can be manipulated you could

make a study basically say whatever you

want okay I’m going to put an article

down below with more data on that it’s

actually quite fascinating but a lot of

the studies out there have data that’s

been manipulated okay like let’s just

take the Framingham study and that study

they omitted some real key pieces of

data they just took it out and so the

the data that they wanted to prove their

theory so when you have a researcher

going into a study already knowing the

conclusion which is very common by the

way they’re gonna they’re gonna

manipulate it how they want it okay

there’s also corruption going on all the

time so in 1965 the sugar industry paid

off some really key credible Harvard

researchers okay to downplay the effect

of certain research to kind of ignore it

and suppress the effects of sugar on

cardiovascular and also sugar on dental

decay and emphasize the cholesterol so

there’s a lot of corruption going on as

well number four it’s very difficult to

do studies in general and prove

something because there are so many

variables how do you isolate something

especially when you’re dealing with food

because the combinations of food you you

know you’re isolating a nutrient you’re

taking this out there’s so many

different compounds so it is very

difficult to do studies especially if

you’re doing in on complex food groups

and things like that now I just want to

let you know I’m not against studies I

just think you should also include this

other thing called experience okay which

is firsthand you experiencing a diet or

a combination of foods to see if it

works on you of course you have to have

the correct knowledge but if you apply

it okay to yourself you get the

experience then you personally will have

the certainty firsthand and you’re not

going to be distracted by maybe some of

these sites studies that will oppose you

because you actually got the results

like in the ketogenic diet for example

there’s not a lot of research but we

have a lot of people have gone through

it with amazing results incredible

results life-changing results no one’s

gonna tell them it didn’t work on them

so don’t forget about using your own

personal experience especially where

relates to diet and exercise and

intermittent fasting alright guys so go

ahead and comment below and tell me what

you think about this topic hey guys so

there’s a whole bunch of people that

really need this information so press

the share button and let’s get it way
