Sounds like you sure know how aliens make things.

It's arrogance because you think that your current system of science is relevant. Civilization has been around for only 5000 years. How do you know other planets do not have elemen…

Perhaps you should rethink the concept of "proven not being able to work".

Testing things is different than practicing things. You cannot test many things. You also cannot prove many things. Look at nutrition. Determining the cause and effect of a substan…

Well, in that case, heme iron may not be so bad. I'm not here to debate that. But the source has ground -- until someone gives me a better source.

Would love to see a better source. - Nutritionfacts.org is non-profit - Their conclusions are based on studies. - They're not trying to sell supplements or food products. Do they o…

Maybe "disastrous" is the wrong word. "An increase in heme iron intake of 1mg/day appeared to be significantly associated with a 27% increase in risk of CHD" according to one study…
