We are all told that red wine if consumed in limited amounts every day is very beneficial for health in the long term. Of late, I heard that this scientific marketing was also sponsored by the alcohol industry and high chances that this notion is fake and preposterous.
There seems to be no safe dose for alcohol. https://nutritionfacts.org/video/is-it-better-to-drink-littl...
The statement is probably true, but the provided source is one you should be skeptical of. The author is somewhat of a vegan quack.
Meat industry smoke and mirrors siezed upon by people that want to feel good about eating thier bacon, unfortunately: https://youtu.be/MsFWeC-DeLo If what you say is true then why are people born with exceptionally low cholesterol levels basically immune to heart disease?
I don’t know from where you get your ideas, but as a matter of fact low LDL is associated with heart disease !
You could, you know, actually watch the video I linked.
Numerous direct intervention studies have shown the clear causal link between dietary saturated fat and blood cholesterol levels. You can obscure this fact by playing games with population meta studies because individual baseline levels vary a lot and are genetically determined. https://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-saturated-fat-studies-s... Anecdotally, I and several people I know have dramatically dropped our blood…
There is no link between high cholesterol and heart disease, I.e. correlation is not causation. If we are speaking of anecdotes, I eat a lot of fat, I’m on a keto diet and my cholesterol dropped to normal after I began keto. And this is actually consistent with the claims of high fat proponents... that it’s insulin that triggers the metabolic syndrome, causing problems with LDL too, and insulin levels and resistance…
Fats and protein also stimulate insulin release and a steak triggers a bigger insulin response than a bowl of white pasta. Check any chart of insulin responses to confirm this.
Losing weight by any means will lower your cholesterol. But the typical high fat low carb keto diet has the highest mortality rate of any popular diet.

Ethanol is in many of foods that we consume from yoghurt to bread and even fruit.

An "industry-funded study" is an oxymoron. That's about as compelling as sports players also being the referee. All the studies that have shown that alcohol is not negative to health have been funded by the industry. To continue my analogy, the player/referee signaled for a touchdown when he wasn't even on the field. This is all propaganda bullshit pushed by alcohol companies to sell more shit. And really, anyone who stops to think about such ideas that a glass of wine a day--in other words a small addiction to alcohol, the most devastating commonly used drug in the world--could be beneficial, and doesn't question the validity by using his common sense is a fool who believes what he wants to believe. To sell addiction to the masses through manipulated studies is both genius on the part of alcohol companies and something that should be punished severely, as in disbanding the company. Except that nih and other federal departments are too dumb/corrupt themselves to not take the money. In the meantime, millions of people are and have died, gotten cancer, cirrhosis, and other problems because of their incompetence and willingness to sell the alcohol companies' take that a little alcohol addiction is not bad. Of course, for people that trust such government institutions, there is no hope and their trust, as we can see, has been the downfall of millions. But that's another issue altogether.

Obviously. Do you really think a little addiction to alcohol could be beneficial given all the ill effects we've known about it the last 8000 years?
There's an order of magnitude difference between the marketing and lobbying budgets of the animal agriculture industry and the others you mentioned. There is no "big broccoli" funding dodgy nutrition studies.
Well, there is Monsanto working for selling roundup and GMO monocultures with questionable cherry picking of evidence.
Monsanto is now Bayer
Which (not who) will likely retire the name
in a branding whitewash.
On one hand that's bad. On the other hand, not eating them might actually increase your risk of cancer. Perceived risk from harm due to pesticides on food is overestimated by many people, and the risk of not eating more fruit and vegetables is underestimated. "If just half the U.S. population were to increase fruit and vegetable consumption by a single serving a day, an estimated 20,000 cancer cases might be avoided…
Well, if you’re already getting your vitamins elsewhere, eating a grape might not be terribly different from eating sugar. It is very odd fruits and veggies are mixed together like this when they have such a different nutritional profile.
The point of fruit is the fiber, not just the vitamins.
