The distinction that resolves most of these threads is between what is true on average and what is true for one person.

No disagreement with Dr.LipidDallas. One condition attached. Yes, and the corollary is less popular: if the reasoning holds, it also holds where it produces an answer we do not like.

Bookmarking. The distinction being drawn above is the one nobody else makes.

This is where I part company with the consensus forming above. Pushing back on the anecdote-stacking. Twenty people reporting the same thing is twenty samples from the same self-selected pool, not twenty independent confirmations.

Happy to go further on any of that.

One concrete data point for the thread. The boring version of this is the one that works, and the boring version is: measure a baseline, change one variable, wait, measure again under the same conditions. Nobody wants that answer and it is still the answer.

I would rather be corrected than agreed with, if it comes to it.
