Politicians vs Science; the Surreal War on Salt

[Centurion1]

I. Want.To.Judge.For. Myself.

Is that clear enough?

I don't want to be bullied by health officials who deny the excellent work of the Cochrane Collaboration, one of the few independent institutions left. For your information, Cochrane's meta-studies are famous throughout the world precisely because they cut through the science à la carte which pops up everywhere these days in support of health and food industries and government bureaucracies.

Have you ever looked into their work? Did you understand that scientific results can be counter-intuitive and that no amount of anecdote is going the change the outcome of evidence-based research? Do you even know what a meta-study is?

But but but you don't understand your wrong. I have friends who are doctors and they said salt is bad for you. Why do you keep listening to these "other legitimate scientists"? I know i'm right so you need to listen to me.
