62 million patient records is a pretty impressive study. Hard to argue with results from those numbers. I wonder if they checked for other possible diseases at the same time while they were there. Certainly beats those 'Trust me Im a Doctor' sample sizes 😉

On the flip side you generally die if you don't have it removed...

Well that’s great but there 100% likely to Die if they don’t.. 😂 waste of money that study
