Its just like Nutrasweet causing cancer in rats. Those rats were fed their body weight in Nutrasweet. Of course it fugged them up. Thats just common sense. |
Yes, you are very correct. It seems that, in the interest of proving their hypotheses right, many researchers are using the following method in order to conduct experiments about whether or not a material may be hazardous to one's health:
1. Determine how much water you can give a certain animal before it will die.
2. Multiply the result by pi.
3. Administer that dosage of substance X to that animal.
Their conclusion, when the animal dies, is that substance X is hazardous. This, however, is a fallacious conclusion. The correct conclusion would have been that tremendous quantities of substance X are hazardous to the particular animal used in the experiment. Any other conclusion is incompliant with the fundamentals of science.

First... re the guy whose takes 5 pills a night.... WTF!
Now seriously... The practice of upping dosages in clinical studies is to shorten the time scale. Instead of doing a long term study on E, which should take at least 10 years, the researchers just upp the dosage and say its the same as a long period of time... but this is not so. Anything, anything in large dosages will kill you. You can die of water OD, in fact CNN has been following a story of a girl who dies of just that recently.
Also it should be noted that none of those animals lived beyond the experiment. To examine brain cells, you have to kill the subject and remove the brain. So, this is an extremely short term study on the effects of high dosages of E, on an animal who has a different reaction to E than do humans. 1 in 5 died... to the best of my knowledge no human has died from just E, it has been from OD on E+ other substances, or from heat stroke (which kills completely healthy, non-drug using people standing on street corners ).
There is a risk in everything. I'm willing to assume that risk... for science of course. From a purely altruistis motivation, I must... it's really for all of you out there. I just hope you all appreciate what were out there doing for you people. 
Cheers,
Fats
