The entire piece only states the reason *why* I have no direct
experience with ABC products---because I was very unimpressed with my
two initial exposures to ABC, namely 1) through an extremely flawed
piece put forth as "fact" by one of their representatives, which leads
me to doubt their nutritional knowledge in any other area, and 2) their
ABC brochure, which I also find full of marketing hype, rather than any
reasonable amount of factual information based on clinical trials or
empirical research (which does exist, but sadly tends to contradict
rather than support the claims in the brochure).  I used the example of
using that treatise as an extra credit product to point out that a
number of undergrad students also had no problem finding the flaws, so
it's not just my personal opinion that the information being
disseminated by ABC is less than impeccable.  There are *some* companies
whose recommendations I'll accept at face value based on their past
track record, but ABC ain't one of them.

Candy, if you like the products, fine by me.  But I tend to judge a
company based on the information they put forth, and ABC just doesn't
impress me.  As far as my having no knowledge or experience...well, I'll
be happy to stack my credentials against yours, if that's what you're
asking for.  There are a number of highly qualified people from the
scientific community that lurk on this list, but so far, I haven't heard
any disagreement from any of them (though I have gotten several
agreements privately).

Use whatever product you like, Candy.  It doesn't matter to me, and it
very likely won't change my opinion.  You, of course, are welcome to
yours.  Ain't America grand?
