And that's a very valid point too. If you wanted me to completely give up my entire diet and consume just one product for the rest of my life -- here's what you need to do:

1) Have some (at least one) long term, large cohort, controlled studies proving the efficacy of this diet.

2) Be someone I can trust with being careful and honest with your scientific method over a long period of time.
