Those weren't small studies, and the null hypothesis was accepted. The alternate was rejected. Not by opinion, but by hypothesis testing (statistical analysis).

It was a retrospective study of existing information. I don't know what could be more informative.

> There is another problem with these studies. They are testing levels of antidepressants within the blood of suicide victoms. This type of study is not geared to reveal any great association because you have a large group of untreated people pooled in which may downplay an association. There needs to be a double blind trial comparing suicidal tendancies induced by placebo vs. active SSRI.

Did you read the full-text studies I linked with? The third one answers that question.

No, it shows that excess omega-6 leads to homicidal violence.

Dude, Tracy recommends these oils:

Refer back to my first post in this thread, and go to the quotations numbered 16 and 18. Her treatment is called aromatherapy. These are not dietary fats.

Nothing against aromatherapy, but it isn't going to heal serious mental illness.

And, by the way, sesquiterpene oils rubbed on the feet do not clear that gummy gooey stuff out of the brain, as she claims.

I'm done with this thread.
