Maddy:

You're right. This is another example of stupid, inconclusive studies that
just futher muddy the water. They all fail to go back to paleolithic basics.

I saw another one recently trying to determine whether red grape juice was
effective as red wine in explaining the "French paradox" -- you know --
antioxidants, or some such bs. The fact that commercial grape juice is loaded
with sugar seems to have eluded these idiots, feeding at the government
trough. The French (and the Italians, Spanish, Greeks and Portuguese) simply
consume much less sugar than the Americans or British.

The fact is that Seely's data makes the most sense - 90% correlation between
sugar consumption and breast cancer, and 89% correlation with heart deaths.
Also note that modern fruits have been selectively bred to have a high sugar
(frustose) content, so they are not that great compared with paleolithic
"fruit" (small, tart berries).
