I think this is really sad. The person only asked a simple question, was not selling or making any claims and gets trashed. From what i have read its water which is treated by ionization to remove impurities and makes no claim to fat loss but improves dehydration. The referred clinical test was to see if it assists in cancer therapy not fat loss. As for research funding all research is funded by commerce and government else it would never happen. People do get hung up on research from their peers and even when it is given it will be Poo pooed as there is always another peer with another view. How many people can actually understand and quantify the results of a clinical trial. At the end of the day you won't be halmed drinking it, if you like it and feel ok with it then carry on. And stop calling people names, iits childish, it achieves nothing and detracts from the actual topic
