Is nice if you want to eat a certain way, but the way they act is like the progressive libs, with threats, etc.
(When someone doesnt agree w/ them). Retards...
-----
- Recently conducted meta-analysis concludes link between red meat and cardiovascular disease/cancer too weak to make blanket recommendations to consume less
- Major studies publication "Annals of Internal Medicine" editor-in-chief received lots of hate mail before study was published and had to shut down inbox
- THI (The Health Initiative, a non-profit org) directors asked editor in chief to retract this study
- One of the directors of THI is a guy named David Katz, you might know him from appearing in the fake news documentary The Game Changers
- Demand to retract study from THI violated embargo policy (stating that press officers are prohibited from circulating studies before they are published)
- Katz dropped from list of journalists able to receive studies before published, by now he is probably mad
- PCRM, another pro plant-based diet group files a complaint to the FTC and District attorney of Philly (lol?) for Annals of Internal medicine trying to spread fake news about red meat
- Katz called the study "a great debacle of public health and akin to information terrorism" because he doesn't like or agree with study results (lmao at information terrorism)
- Conflict of interest brought up as potential issues of the authors, however only received 1.5% of funding from beef industry
- When Katz confronted on his own studies (and that of his colleagues) being funded mostly by plant-based organizations, he plays verbal gymnastics and says it isn't the same
- Texas A&M University (where this study was based out of) writes a letter to Harvard (the alma-mater of most of the THI directors) basically telling them the actions of their alumni are very unethical, borderline defamation, and for them to get their chit together
- Several nutritionists drop THI as a sponsor due to this mess
