According to the listening, no food has super power to defend against disease in humans. This is contrary to information given in the reading.
The professor points out that research on blueberries give the wrong impression about their good effects on brain functions in humans as the reading mentions. The professor makes the point that we can’t prove that blueberries are really beneficial for our brain because the research have only verified this result in animals – rats and mice, not with humans.
The speaker states that information about tomatoes in the reading is unclear. Even though tomatoes are good for their nutritional value, they can’t promise people won’t get cancer. On the other hand, the reading mentions about tomatoes’ effect in reducing the risk of cancer.
The professor also discusses the misleading ideas about broccoli and garlic. For instance, a recent study shows that garlic balances cholesterol levels for only 3 months but its effect disappears after 6 months whereas the reading doesn’t even mention about that.
In conclusion, the lecturer maintains that the arguments about certain foods’ magic powers is just a big exaggeration and unscientific whereas the reading provides opposing information.
