I'm disappointed she has come out against GMOs, that's a very anti science position.

Had no idea you were active here. When you left Twitter, I thought you quit social media entirely because of your medical career. You could bring a lot of people from X to bluesky by tweeting you're active here!

Maybe one day the field will finally come around to admitting Jeanne Calment was a hoax, age "confirmed" via bullshit methods, and they went along with it because it bolstered their careers/field/funding.

There's no need for dietary saturated fat, although it would be extremely difficult to get to absolute zero since there's usually at least trace amounts in nearly everything. But the body can/does synthesize its own saturated fats as necessary.

Agreed. Tried eating flax seed and found it nauseatingly repulsive.

That's how I feel as well from what I've read. Would you extend this to include junk food, like pop tarts, soda, candy? Or do you think those have intrinsic toxic effects that do harm, separate from overconsumption or insufficient nutrients?
comment in response to post
So you'd say the direct cause of harm is due entirely to nutrient absence and over consumption effect? I'm just trying to distinguish between that vs smoking a single cigarette which is intrinsically toxic. Can UPF be directly toxic in this way?

Are they bad entirely due to the overconsumption effects?
