roommate, who pays for half the food, you
really can’t afford to lose that chance.
On that note, however ...
Refer to “scientific evidence” cautiously.
We’re not saying you shouldn’t research
and cite the conclusions of scientific studies.
What we are saying, however, is that for
every science-y article you find that talks
about, say, how dairy can create hormonal
disruption ... there are a hundred just as
science-y articles that will say the exact
opposite.
Our recommendation? Unless you’re
totally up to speed with scientific references
and able to smartly refute the opposing side
on the fly, don’t let the scientific research be
the only leg you choose to stand on. Lead by
example, the first line of defense, and cite
real people who have had real results. Which
brings us to our final point ...
