Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that a majority of Native Americans are lactose intolerant?

Yes. A peer-reviewed 1988 review reports lactose maldigestion in approximately 79% of Native American adults, and a nutrition textbook states the majority of Native American adults are lactase nonpersistent; a separate peer-reviewed source cites 75%. These sources directly support the claim that a majority of Native Americans are lactose intolerant.
