@DinoEatsWaffles@SamaHoole You discovered survivorship bias and think you're Newton. Bimodal mortality doesn't get you to "lived nearly as long as modern" — that's invented. A third of ancient mummies across four cultures had atherosclerosis regardless of diet. The meat didn't save them. Sit down.
@SamaHoole Stunning amount of words to reveal you don't know dietary cholesterol and blood LDL are different things. The hypothesis isn't built on the rabbit, mate. Watanabe rabbits get the exact lesions on plain chow, no oil, just a broken LDL gene. You wrote an essay to lose to a rodent.
@SamaHoole The study you're cribbing from blames US inequality and no universal healthcare for the decline — not seed oils. The Dutch followed the same saturated-fat guidelines and stayed tall because they have prenatal care and almost zero child poverty. Your control group debunks you.
@SamaHoole Homogenisation doesn't remove cream. It suspends it. Skimming is a separate process, and skimmed milk exists because people buy it — it's cheaper, not stolen. Vitamin D deficiency tracks sunlight at UK latitudes, not milk. You've invented a villain to explain demand. Dairy 101.
@SamaHoole The dietary guidelines don't include burger seasoning. You've built a personality around rejecting advice that was never given. Performance art for people who mistake being difficult for being right. Waiter doesn't care. Nobody at your table cares. You're eating meat. Calm down.
@SamaHoole https://t.co/b2B9H8ElIn— there it is. Ten posts of pseudo-profound cadence and the payoff is a subscription page. UV causes DNA damage directly; it has nothing to do with what you fry dinner in. You're not a heretic. You're a man selling sunburn conspiracies to pay his mortgage
@SamaHoole Biohydrogenation is real. "Therefore beef is the healthiest food on earth" isn't. EPIC-Oxford (n=500k): red meat intake tracks higher CVD and colorectal cancer independent of fat profile. The rumen doesn't neutralise heme iron, TMAO, or IGF-1. One true mechanism ≠ one true food.
@SamaHoole "17,000 patients all improved" is self-reported, uncontrolled, unpublished — a memoir, not evidence. DIETFITS (JAMA 2018, RCT, n=609): no advantage for low-carb at 12 months. Obesity rose because calories rose 500/day since 1970 (USDA), not because USA stopped eating chuck steak.
@SamaHoole 30% of global cropland grows feed for livestock, not pasture. Beef uses 20x more land/g of protein than legumes (Poore, Science 2018, 40,000 farms). If marginal grazing were the story, feedlots wouldn't exist. You've defended 10% of beef production and implied it covers 100%
