Thank you. There have been a few studies that have addressed this, mainly from the 70's. Every single one has either been inconclusive or has been thoroughly refuted due to lack of sufficient controls.

Look, I'm not trying to pick on anyone, nor am I saying everyone should be a scientist. This is a straw man argument if I've ever seen one. I am simply stating that there is no scientific evidence to back this claim. If you are able to produce some, please by all means do. If I hurt anyone's feelings by making this statement I sincerely apologize.

It was obviously a mistake for me to post here and I won't bother in the future.
