As I have always said people are different. What is good for one might kill someone else. This is why they use many subjects in a study and not just one. You're also right life isn't fair. I would never tell anyone they should follow what I do or eat. Everyone is different. This is also why people should work with their doctor to determine what is healthy for them.
