Just look at some of those names in the authorship of that haphazard search link i included. Richards, Pullman, McElroy, Bhattacharyya, Pauling ... If you can't put trust in some of those folks then you won't find it in general. (whatever the hell "trust" has to do with good science, notwithstanding)

Pauling was a genius, great contributions to chemistry, but he also thought vitamin C was the cure for everything. I'm a "real scientist" and I can judge evidence for myself.\

Random searches on terms bring up a lot of stuff, but it takes time to evaluate everything. On the other hand, I'm already up to speed on the state of the art in protein chemistry, and I'm not seeing strong physical evidence from experimentalists supporting this.
