Your comment is fair. I definitely acknowledge you didn't deserve my trigger reaction, and yes it is a bit of a non-sequitur. Like I said, it's not about you, but just a pattern that I've seen in my years on HN and generally with many startup-types with unhealthy lifestyles.

To be clear I am not dismissing scientific research, I'm saying that often times the people who cite the strongest belief in science are completely subverting the science by selectively using it to justify eating what they want to eat.
