"Don't ask me to prove it, or how I know. Just take it on trust."

I'm sorry Zul, but instead of this statement, I really feel the best interest of fact-finding and research would be better served if you just say "In my opinion" or "My own personal theory" so trusting readers don't think things like this are proven fact. I'm not saying your theory has NO merit, just that it's not proven yet, and the statement you made sounded WAY too much like what the people trying to dis low-carb say!

I know you don't intend it to be harmful in ANY way, and you're just trying to help. I've just been frustrated when I've asked you for proof of some other statements you've made and I feel I got an evasive answer at best, with a link to an article that doesn't definitivly answer what was asked. (IE the "CA's react to fiber" statements.)

Just adding "in my opinion" might seem nitpicky to you, but it would really help separate the fact from theories here.

Thanks.
