the nih could decide to do nothing. Dont tell anyone how to eat. People then would eat however. for anyone who has gone carnivore for more than a month you know how ridiculous this is. They as medical professionals know it as well. So why the disconnect, why the effort to misinform? If tomorrow everyone switched to meat or nothing. There wouldnt be enough meat to feed the world. A very significant portion of the worl…

There's no way eating plants is good for the economy, it leads to obese, sickly and weak populace which has massive costs all across the board including, but not limited to healthcare. The amount of money trash food companies make is miniscule compared to overall damage to the US economy. The sheer incompetence of this whole ordeal is really hard to stomach.

"Eating fruits and veggies makes you obese, sickly, and weak" is probably the most American take I have seen ANYWHERE.

Clearly the fact that the US has so many diabetic and overweight citizens has nothing to do with being the largest per-capita consumers of meat and everything to do with not eating more meat

Explain please clearly the biologic/metabolic pathways of how meat consumption leads to diabetes. I'm listening.

Does eating meat spike blood glucose? No?

Does meat cause regular insulin spikes and subsequently development of insulin resistance? No?

Then how in the flying fuck eating meat would lead to developing diabetes type-2 (that's the common one fatties have)?

This is such an utterly deranged thing to say, do you even have like a barebones base-literacy level understanding of human biology? What is this? Am I on reddit?

How can you get fat eating meat? It doesn't spike blood glucose levels and doesn't spike insulin (a hormone primarily one responsible for lipogenesis - aka fat storage).

Do you know what the US is also largest per-capita consumers of?

Fucking sugar. ~126g of it per ... DAY... per CAPITA (which is insane). And there you have it.

P.S. Not an American.
