Steve, you forgot reason #5 (though I'd make it reason #1) for not relying on scientific health studies - they really mess with your head! There's so much (often contradictory) information floating around out there that, if you rely on it, you get trapped in a perpetual aim, aim, aim, aim...
P.S. Jontillman, Wikipedia is far from the only source for the rates of harm from medical errors. If you don't trust second-hand sources, just look at the number of successful malpractice suits.
