The Tohoku University study was published in the journal Nutrients. A wasabi company, Kinjirushi Co., provided funding, though the researchers say the company had no role in the study itself.

Yeah, that study is worthless.

Not necessarily disagreeing with you but almost all studies are funded by private companies.

Usually by someone with a financial interest in seeing that the study yelds a result that is beneficial for them.
