[cancercured] RE: Taking vitamin supplements to prolong life may have the opposite effect

It was seriously remiss of Bjelakovic and his team to not emphasise that; a) the studies they used to condemn these vitamins were nearly all performed using synthetic forms of the vitamins that behave in the body in remarkably different ways to the natural forms and b) to not make clear the effects their study selection approach would have on the final results.I don't know if this is a case of misinformation, but I was wondering who sponsors Dr. Goran Bjelakovic.

Research: Vitamins may increase risk of death.
Story Highlights

Taking vitamin supplements to prolong life may have the opposite effect. Researchers find no evidence that antioxidants are key to a long life. Health specialists say research is 'flawed' and pills are safe.
