Travis Saunders selects several notable posts each week from Health and Clinical Research. He blogs at Obesity Panacea.
It seems that contrariness was the theme this week in Health and Clinical Research on Researchblogging.org! Here are three interesting posts that dispute popular myths and bogus health claims.
- Orac from Respectful Insolence explains why a new study will not lead to a cure for breast cancer in the next 2 years.
- Peter Janiszewski from Obesity Panacea discusses the myth of the “freshman 15″.
- Colin Hockings of Blue Genes examines recent papers suggesting that some claims about spinal manipulation are completely unfounded.
See you next week!
