Reply to comment by syzamix in ELI5. Why is honey and lemon a popular cure for cold like symptoms. What makes lemon more effective than say an orange or lime? by alexkid_in_realworld

Hey I'm not really interested in debating this any further. If you want to find evidence supporting your belief, you're going to find it. This doesn't mean it's real. The fact that you took my "vinegar cures cancer" search (which is just a fake claim I made up) and now believe there's merit to it because you found a search result that glances at the idea sideways is an example of the problem.

Talk to your doctor if you want medical advice, not social media.

>initial strong claim that it doesn't do anything

I did not make this claim. I said there was no significant evidence that it does anything.

>I can actually find reputed sources (top tier universities) saying that it does.

I strongly recommend you have this conversation with your doctor.

>Unlike you, I do have a good science education and I like to learn.

Awful bold of you to assume you know anything whatsoever about my background, education, or professional experience.

>You are either just dumb
