Your study is on rats and funded by the dairy industry. That ought to give you some idea of how desperate Big Ag is to exonerate the poisonous saturated fat.

You can't survive without saturated fat? I'm going to ask for you to provide a citation for that. I eat ~0g saturated and trans fat and have never been more healthy.

Please explain how they are logical fallacies. Most of the site's content is literal quotes from leading medical and science professionals. No stake in the low-carb game? You are kidding, right? Atkins is a for-profit, multi-million do

I can't help but draw parallels to the 60's, when the causal link between smoking and lung cancer was absolutely apparent. Yet, most doctors smoked, so few actually recommended people cut it out. As a result, millions of people pe

The only studies you will ever find supporting milk consumption are funded by the dairy industry. I challenge anyone reading this to prove me wrong.

Meat has heme iron which is actually quite bad for you. B-12 can be found in a weekly sub-lingual pill and it's the only vitamin which needs to be supplemented on an animal product-free diet. The dangerous of meat consumption far outwe

You don't need more than 10-15% of your calories to come from protein. Maybe a little more if you are a professional body-builder.

Fibre is carbohydrate. Protein isn't that important - WHO recommends just 10% of calories be protein. Fat isn't as scary? I assume you meat saturated and trans fat found in almost all processed and animal foods - avoid them at all

by noondip 11y ago
Just stop. You are giving dangerously wrong advice. Avoid all carbohydrates? So you mean, don't eat any fruit or vegetables, instead eat excessive protein and fat which are known to cause cancer, diabetes and heart disease? No, thanks!

Fine, but your comment has no substance and makes for trite reading. So what if I promote a vegan diet? Are you genuinely so threatened by this fact that you find it important to chime in to let readers know every time I post? If you find w

Humans aren't obligatory carnivores like the example of the wolf you've used. From a physiological standpoint, it's more accurate to describe ourselves as "dedicated herbivores".
