Let me get this straight…. Regular consumption of processed - TopicsExpress



          

Let me get this straight…. Regular consumption of processed cassava (gari) is apparently (strong correlation) causing color blindness, severe visual impairment, and blindness, especially among those aged ≥ 40 years. 8 researchers published a study documenting this problem, and speculate that the cause of blindness may be because of the cyanid levels in gari. A company that makes (processes) this product complains that the study is hurting their profits. The authors and journal then retract the study?!?!?!?! WTF? I wonder what kind of pressure was used to convince them to retract. I sure hope the Streisand Effect works here to spread this news far and wide. I almost never ask for this, but please Like and Share. This news needs to get out. retractionwatch/2014/05/19/wow-researchers-retract-paper-because-company-complains-its-hurting-profits/
