Um. No. submitted by Tee Chuan on July 5, 2012, 9:39am The author has some issues to work out regarding his family. I would suggest to the author to solve these issues before giving out advice. Plus, the author does NOT cite his sources! "Cutting edge research" should be backed up by sources! Where did he get these numbers? SOURCES please!
