I have wanted, for a long time, to do some studies on diets, health and other symptoms. I always wanted to do a trial of LCHF. But I am constant facing one issue. For it to be real research you would need some kind of control group.
How can I possibly ask people to stay on their high carbohydrate and low fat diets when I know it is harmful for them? How can I tell them to eat like that for 3, 6, 9, or 12 moths when that can slowly kill them? It shouldn’t even be allowed!
First do no harm is a well known fraise in medical literature but overseen by many. To have significant proof a control group is required… but where is the ethic in that when we know it is wrong? I don’t understand. Sure, if you have no clue of what is right and wrong and truly are testing one method over another without having a set goal already with it, like me, it would be ok I guess.
Off course we can now also argue that someone that is trying to prove a point, like me, can do so no matter the hypothesis… you can just simply deny to include studies that prove your point to be false. That is off course illegal – but yet we see it everywhere.
To me it is proof enough to see the groups I would love to work with (Diabetes, Weight Loss, Heart Health, and Skin Irritations) improve their own health. The health of others is my goal – not to really prove a point. The proving point part is just there to show when someone asks for it.
See, my dream is to become a certified nutritionist – open my own office – help people reach optimal health – and eventually I would go out of business because there would be no more people to help! That is my ultimate dream!
Anyone ready to sign up for any of my LCHF groups?
