Hot Flash and Diet[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article appears to be a literature survey with the purpose of drawing a conclusion, which falls under the definition of synthesis, a form of original research that is disallowed at Wikipedia. The article's author goes so far as to conclude that the literature is "inconclusive and inconsistent", but then goes on to make recommendations about diet changes anyway based on an unreliable source.

I agree with the nomination that WP:SYN appears to be a problem with this article, but I'm not sure that deletion is the best option. Some of the content, if separated from its bias, could fit well in hot flash, particularly in the underdeveloped sections like Hot_flash#Lifestyle_changes. Someone knowledgeable could trim, merge, and redirect... Deli nk (talk) 09:50, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Merge into Hot Flash, cut right back and condense into a section on diet? Lifestyle changes there looks rather thin, and this could pad it out.AdventurousMe (talk) 15:40, 26 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
