I agree that your speculation is likely.

Hi Sharie, 

Why people in Africa? Was there a lack of people with iron deficiencies in
the USA or Europe?  Probably some sort of experimentation with a little
"extra" something added.

The article states only one "researcher".  It would be good to see more
evidence or such studies. . One case of Agaria is does! not make a case
against CS...or does it.. I looked for more studies citing similar
conclusion to the article but found few if any.  One mentioned iron
deficiencies of a study done on children in Vietnam and Australia.

I find this researchers statement highly suspect.

Would be a good to research these studies and who performed these studies.
