One problem I have with such stzudies, that they are extremely focussed onto one thing, leave out other things for the sake of being focussed on just one thing, and by that focussing on one thing (maybe two ;) ) they completely miss systemical interactions and links with other factors. That way, the study probably saw some things from the Tomatoes, but missed the very high content of sugar, salt, etc.
a study being done with a focus on sugar or salt, maybe would warn you to eat ketchup, but like the first study would recommend to drink tomato juice. and a third study focussing on sunburning maybe would complain about tomatoes having no positive effect of preventing them. :-?
as one of my professors used to say back in those days: "conduct examinations with sharper and sharper tools and methods - and you end up with finally finding just anything, even unimportant things, non-harming somethings, no matter how useless the finding is."
On TV they once showed an indian study, financed by an Indian business man, who used cow's excrement to dry it, pulverize it until it was fine as powder and looked like cinamon, and then to sell it pure, or using it as main ingredient for: hair shampoo. anti aging cream. And, best of all, tooth powder - what he demonstrated himself, rubbing the light brown powder in his mouth and over his teeth. :dead: Really, just dried, pulverized cow excrement, nothing more done to it.
He complained that he found it difficult to raise a market in the West. :dead:
P.S. nice signature quotes, Steed - just noted them.
