    I looked at the first couple links you pointed me to. This is hardly cherry picking.

    The author themselves write their review include low quality study, acknowledging it weakens the conclusions. It’s the author’s assessment, not mine.

    Should I ignore the 2 first links, and look a another, specific one?

      Looking at 2 out of 8 links provided is the definition of cherry picking. Nowhere did I say that you have to ignore anything. What I gave you is a broad example of many different studies. You zeroed in on two examples, ignored the rest, and then started making wild claims about the quality of research. If you had any genuine interest in the subject, you would’ve actually gone through all the links provided and then examined the available evidence before making further comments. But obviously you just wanted to confirm your existing biases and that’s what you proceeded to do.
