Hi Yvonne, list! A citation like this is a starting point, but doesn't give us a *whole* lot, unfortunately...
The cite is at the bottom of a long page of info about CS that is a faithful rehash of what we've always been told. The only "reference" provided to back up any of what they say is "Article from Family Health News". We don't know what issue, or that it's not a company publication or otherwise commercially affiliated with the vendor. So a first step is to see if there is such a publication and find the referenced article. Then trace back to authors or sources if possible, to the actual test results, if they'll share them. *That* will begin to approach documented results! <GRIN> Which is to say there's a lot of work to do to really nail these things down. Marketers like this, in the absence of real data, tend to throw words at it until it looks real and just hope for the best. We know there's very little hard date to be found to begin with. So, this item shows that somebody claims to have bought some culture testing at a lab, and that the results were good. It at least jibes with what we know from experience. Good digging. Keep us up to date!
