This is similar to the cholesterol issue, Lipitor is good, Lipitor is bad…
I would follow the authorities (doctors). Scientists make researches, but they don't really have actual clinical studies esp with patients. At the end, everything has side effects. It all comes down to taking everything in moderation, as once the health problem kicks in, then there's a possibility of a domino effect on the person's health, later on.

vested interests abound, lies, damned lies and statistice- the hydration lobby is funded by mineral water companies...as one of the Marx Bros said "if you don't like my principles, I have got some more" or when it comes to shifting units, none at all.. .

Hi I would believe the first study, I am building a website what is dedicated to alternative cures that work. I have come to realise that the pharmaceutical companies don't want these truths to get out there because it cuts into the profits for them. Thanks Alan

Believe the first study!

Exactly! I agree with Trialynn. My husband just told me this morning that he heard on the news somewhere yesterday that bacon and real butter is better for you than the low fat "healthy" stuff they have out these days. That also contradicts what we've been told that bacon and butter is not good for you. So what is right and what is wrong?

I would write a brand new article with the updated findings and then on the old one just say there has been an update and link it to the new findings. that way you get new content on your site, and you have updated your old content so that if anyone finds that they are now encouraged to stay on your site. it also shows that you keep up to date with the information you are providing to people

Tell your readers not to take all research at face value, that opinions change and that the truth is elusive. You can only base what you pass on to them on research and conclusions by people much more qualified than yourself!

I do like red wine and dark chocolate, whatever studies find out.

Everything you like, eaten in moderation, is good for you!

Research it more, then make your own decision in a current article (reference the one you posted previously). At least that's what I would do.
