RE: Weight Loss: Is Detox a Thing?

in #steemiteducation6 years ago

I did not look at your study but:

  • This is basically a trade organization funded by the manufacturers of devises in the field. They fund what they want to see.
  • The first article of the first page says the fda is not allowing certain devices to be called hearing aides. This is a lobbying success for this group who wants to get the most bang for their patent buck.
  • Any "scientist" associated with this group who wants to study cheap remedies for the problems they care about will not get funded.

So you show me the exact reason I do not waste my time in places like this. If I had a family member with any of these problems, I would go to fb groups first to get an understanding of what works and doesn't work from others long before I would be coming to this site - even if I ever did.

Sort:  

This is an article about an 8th grader who at home, unfunded, discovered a way to make his hearing aid batteries last longer. You can find the story in a bunch of different places.

Hmm... Interesting that the trade group was unable to figure that out themselves with all of the money they've got at their disposal.

Uh-huh. We agree, as I've stated before, that corporations don't have the best interests of humanity in mind.
The whole point of this thread is to convince you that science isn't the villain, corporations are.
This human used science to discover something useful. I keep saying anyone can wield science and you keep saying, "no they can't" I am trying to demonstrate that "yes, anyone can use science."

Exactly as I said - you are wasting your time here for no reason. This kid is going to get no funding to spread the the word and the battery companies are already working on studies of all the reasons this is a bad idea.

This has absolutely nothing do do with helping obese people got healthy or anything about my post. But try to think of what you are feeding your family each time they eat the non-organic potatoes. If you decide to save them in that one area, I will have done my job. If you even glance at the GRAS list, see the warnings, and stop eating the toxins - more the better.

So... You acknowledge that anyone can do science?

Science is a broad term and I don't pay attention to it as I have said a good ten times now. It is completely irrelevant to my life and work.

You also said that not everyone can use it. That was part of your reasoning for its being irrelevant. I was first trying to provide you with information that would help you understand that everyone can use science. Once you understand that, we can move on to evidence that it is relevant to your work. One thing at a time because we're coming from such opposite points of view.

The best advice I can give you is that I have already given:

  • focus on you own health and that of your family. Your kids are eating toxic substances (per cdc) that were not even invented when you and I were growing up. If you are not paying attention - they might be eating significant amounts of these toxins in combinations that have never been studied by anyone.
  • review your own food sources over time, review the warnings and determine if you want to keep ingesting those substances or not.

I know from my own experience that this is a daunting task and can take hours to research even one substance. For that reason, I stopped researching and just do the best I can to "eat clean" and avoid all the man-made additives. But since you enjoy looking at this information, research might be a better path for you.

I would love to see you post about your results. Maybe you will find great news about potato toxins and maybe you will not. In either case, your family and steemit readers will benefit by your work.
