So the study was not really applicable to the general population. The other main
question is whether the intervention group was actually following the intervention.
There’s evidence, as pointed out by the editorial, that the intervention group did not
follow the intervention. Which makes you wonder, how reliable are the findings of the study?

For example, that study was trying to see if eating more fruits and vegetables would prevent cancer recurrence. One group of women ate more veggies than the other. And they tried to see which group had less cancer. But both groups ate more fruits and vegetables than the national standard guidelines! Confused? I was, until I read the actual study twice.

Hey — thanks for your suggestion! I’m actually not quite sure what exactly to do in that, the media got it wrong, but I think it was because the study they were reporting on was a confusing study. (in other words, I don’t think they were willfully misrepresenting — it was just incomplete reporting).

Yay!!! I’m so glad that you made a video response. Have you ever thought of calling the local news station to refute their broadcast? if you call your station and tell them that you have good reason to believe that the story misrepresents the truth, they will be happy to jump on the latest story.
