Ok, that makes sense. I mostly think that you run the riskk of being able to force the numbers to fit when you're testing qualitative sorts of hypotheses...
And can I just say, that video from the other thread with Dr. Luke M. is horrible, facile and outright wrong.
"Oxidative stress"? Is that interviewer serious? If eating anti-oxidants prevented HIV/AIDS, then sub-Saharan Africa, an area where the average diet is MUCH healthier than it is the U.S. and where people are FAR less likely to be exposed to mutagens/carcinogens and "oxidative stress" than Westerners are, would have the lowest HIV rates in the world.
Likewise with China versus the U.S. Newsflash people: food cannot and will not prevent you from being infected with anything. It might, in some cases, speed up your recovery. But as far as transmission goes: food is irrelevant to exposure/transmission of viruses.
When he said "I believe that people get infected with HIV all the time and their immune system fights it off" I almost pissed myself. Citations please!! That's ludicrous, beyond belief, just flat out wrong.
