Wow, it is interesting. It makes you think about what else we have been told is not backed up by any proof.

It does!  There are so many times I read claims and try to find the science to back them up and have to come to the conclusion that it's really just nutritional urban legend :P

Yes, fascinating read!  Thanks for sharing. Obviously it's impossible to question everything, yet a little critical thinking or a hard asked question often highlights how much B.S. and ignorance there is around us.
