A researcher behind a study of wasabi's effect on cognition says he knew the fiery condiment had health benefits, but "the dramatic change" in memory was a surprise.

    Not necessarily disagreeing with you but almost all studies are funded by private companies.

      Usually by someone with a financial interest in seeing that the study yelds a result that is beneficial for them.

      And that’s why you should wait for independent confirmation before trusting studies with conflict of interest.

      Surely this depends on the field? In life sciences it is quite uncommon. Food science, sure…
