Try what?I think it would have been nicer to report the mean and range rather than the median, but I don't know enough about the usage of statistics in this type of study to understand their significance. The application of logic and common sense does not guarantee accuracy. Empirical investigations can serve to test the logic of hypotheses and the validity of the information they are based upon. Perhaps Morganator is on the right track in identifying the need for a concentrated source of those substances that might act as cancer preventatives. How many red grapes can one eat?
