LOL, if Oliver Crangle only had a brain?

The Science of Natural Health

In the 20th century, the science of Natural Health was epidemiology.

In the 21st century, the science of Natural Health is environmental
epigenetics.

In regards to evaluating exercise and other mind-body treatment methods,
placebo-controlled trials and randomized controlled trials (RCT) are used to
determine effectiveness.

Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials can be used to test
nutritional supplements.  But, they are not all that essential, 
lacebo-controlled trials and randomized controlled trials will do in most
cases.

While science is immortal, people are not.  Therefore, as new information
comes in smart people have to learn to move on limited information generated
from less than perfect randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
research.

Of course, epidemiological research is still being conducted in the new
millennium.

In all cases,  statistical methods are used to minimize the effects of
confounding variables.


The non-existent persons know as Jan Drew, carole, or any of their socks need
NOT reply. Brain dead zombies, like Oliver Crangle, should get a life. Science
Imbeciles should likewise give it up.
