Funny how a shitty study about how butter is good for you funded by the meat and dairy industry is lavished with praise, but any study that says your bad habits

Funny how a shitty study about how butter is good for you funded by the meat and dairy industry is lavished with praise, but any study that says your bad habits are bad for you is met with "oh I am unconvinced. Probably p-hacked. Too small a sample size."

Actually, the thing I thought was funny is that some comments here interpret the study as saying "red meat is bad for you" and others interpret the study as saying "red meat is good for you." I actually couldn't quite figure out wtf it was saying about red meat's impact on you. And given the conflicting interpretations here, I feel like I am not the only one.

  They didnt test for Vit D3 levels, and d3 has been shown to reduce the shrinkage of the telomeres during cell replication, but before you all go out and get some sun to raise your d3 or consume some d3 supplements, as Vitamin D Receptors (vdr's) also have a zinc finger as do Vitamin A receptors, make sure you increase your zinc intake otherwise the body will try to load balance the zinc between the different parts of the body which need zinc. Some enzymes have also been shown to increase the length of telomeres so it takes more time for the cell to reach the Hayflick limit. I also ask myself, does having cells with long telomeres benefit me? What if the genes have mutated in the cell, it could then be faulty like cancer cells, so then what? Is my immune system capable of spotting the faulty cell and killing it off (apoptosis). If it is, is the removed cell replaced with a stem cell mobilised to replace the removed cell? Melatonin increases the release of mesenchymal stem cells, but what if the wifi from my laptop is detroying or degrading the bone marrow in my femur so the stem cells are destroyed or reduced so theres a deficit whereby only essential cells are replaced with stem cells? As you can see, we are more complicated than a study of sorts which looks at one part of the body in relative isolation in order to draw a conclusion. Perhaps this study is being used to get people to eat less red meat as the planets ability to produce it en-masse is limited which could explain burgers grown in test tubes and the UN's call to start eating insects as a protein food source, whilst no one really wants to admit global human population is putting some resources at unsustainable levels.
