Let's ask him then! If I hear back from him, I'll ask him what he uses as a reference. I read years ago that he was intensely interested in the therapeutical effects of plants & had previously been a herbalist or something similar. But he wanted to learn more about the science behind it & went back to get a doctorate. So he has a natural bias in favour of plants. That's not necessarily a bad thing as I do too, but if one isn't completely objective about so-called benefits, more can be credited to plants than is true, or at least known now.
