Yes. It shows again that marketing and personal fantasy trump science and truth in the USA and probably elsewhere too. But not eternally. Science will prevail

Science will prevail eventually, on that I will agree. Unfortunately most nutrition science today is complete garbage. The evidence doesn't back up the results they claim. Basically, at this point each person has to try various things and figure out what works best for themself.

    None of those are actual studies. Quoting from the first link: "In the case of red meat, the classification is based on limited evidence from epidemiological studies showing positive associations between eating red meat and developing colorectal cancer as well as strong mechanistic evidence. Limited evidence means that a positive association has been observed between exposure to the agent and cancer but that other explanations for the observations (technically termed chance, bias, or confounding) could not be ruled out." This is garbage science. It's all like that. Believe whatever you like, though.
