Dear teacher,
Dr. Benjamin Caballero, the director of the Center for Human Nutrition at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, said the study showed the problem with assuming that vitamins at least would do no harm.
"This reaffirms what many have already said," Dr. Caballero said. "The evidence for supplementing with any vitamin, and particularly vitamin E, is just not there. This idea that people have that even if it does not have any effect, at least it will not hurt, may not be that simple."
Q : I think "just not there" mean in the context that the knowledge about effects of Vitamin E we has known is not the all of it. It is possible that there is another effect, particularly side effects.
What do you think?
