Someone Ask Landis if He Eats a Lot of Millet

Another item from the speculative coincidence department:
apparently a diet high in millet is highly associated with thyroid dysfunction. Yes eating millet can cause goiter leading to hypothyroidism. But you have to eat a lot of it over a long period of time, exactly the sort of conditions I explained may be necessary to stimulate a dietary-based false positive on the IRMS.

I don't think you've addressed how diet can cause a false positive on the CIR test. You earlier cited a paper that shows that diet can increase the C13/C12 ratio in testosterone, but you did not mention whether it addressed the comparison to reference hormones.

My understanding of the T/E ratio is that the T was of normal levels, but it was the E that was elevated. The ratio was off but in the wrong direction to cause a performance increase.
