Don't listen to him.

If researchers believe that chemical X is harmful, potentially,

the ethics review board would not allow them.

Even if this is ubiquitous in our food supply, the ethics review board might say, no, you can't, we're not gonna allow you to do this study.

If your hypothesis is correct, and this is a harmful substance, you're gonna harm half of the people in your study.

We can't have you do that.

So it's not allowed in the study, but it's allowed in the food.

It would be allowed in the food because it hasn't been proven dangerous.

But if you're exposing people to a danger and there's no benefit to them, the ethics board is looking out for the research participants.

And if I'm a research participant, you know, you want to test the hypothesis that cyanide is bad for humans.

I'm going to give half the people cyanide and half of them not and just see what happens.

The ethics boards will say, no, you can't do that study because your assumption is that this is a harmful thing.
