Well huh. I too had only read it in lay summaries, and when I tried to chase it down, this was the best thing I found: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1875801 which without reading the full text, seems from the abstract that it just assumes that as a given, like it's conventional wisdom among doctors too?
This comes from MIT sports medicine department, but of the four citations it gives, three are lay summaries and the last is an entire book, not particular studies.
