A "stranger in a newsgroup" claiming a low carb diet made their hair

Alleged anecdotal "claims" that cannot be vetted is what are made in
this newsgroup. They do not trump science. Ironically, the self
proclaimed diabetes experts in here use selective science research and
studies to support their opinions unless proven wrong. If no selective
research or studies that back them up can be found, or if someone
posts research and studies that contradict their opinions, they they
put their fingers in their ears and shout their anecdotal findings.>8

Seems to me every time we test anecdotal information, or research
claims, for that matter, with "test, test, test" WE are doing the
"vetting." While I make no claim to great scientific knowledge or
education, I did learn to read numbers -- and my meter has really
nice, big ones, to make it easier even for dumb ol' me.

Vetted, is usually for one participant in this newsgroup. Nothing wrong
with that so long as it is kept in context.
