///@thecarnivorediet: Quote: “Public health officials for years have urged Americans to limit consumption of red meat and processed meats because of concerns that these foods are linked to heart disease, cancer and other ills. But on Monday, in a remarkable turnabout, an international collaboration of researchers produced a series of analyses concluding that the advice, a bedrock of almost all dietary guidelines, is not backed by good scientific evidence” https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/30/health/red-meat-heart-cancer.html

The anti meat story was cooked up by the carb industries. Specifically the sugar industry and the corn/wheat industry. They collaborated because they knew if they could reduce meat consumption, then people would eat more wheat and corn. And the sugar industry knew if they vilified fat, then people would start using more sugar and salt to flavor their food. This was happening at the same time the medical industry was discovering insulin and how carb consumption elevates that hormone, which when elevated makes you hungry. By pushing the cheep and easy to produce carbs, then people would switch to carbs for calories, and the insulin response would get them addicted and coming back for more. Together they came up with the now debunked "food pyramid", and got it in every classroom by buying fake science to back it and then paying health book publishers to put it in health text books, and medical journals. It was accepted as fact with no legitimate basis. The carb industry is doing it even now. You hear, for example oatmeal is "heart healthy", but you never hear compared to what. Yes, oatmeal is healthy if you compare it to a diet of candy coated cereal, and potato chips. Of course they also don't say you have to eat it plain with no brown sugar, raisins, cream or butter mixed in. Have you ever tried eating plain oatmeal? It's nearly inedible. That's because your body knows it's not food, you have to put food on it to make it edible. Sugar is a trick developed by plants to entice to into eating their fruits and thereby distributing the seeds. That trick was used by marketers to capitalize on your overpowering desire to get it. Your biology drives you to crave sugar because your ancestors survived by eating it when it was available in late summer so they fattened up to survive winter. Well now that same drive is being used against you and used year round by manufacturers concentrating it, and preserving it, so your body thinks it's late summer all year long. Always packing on the fat, but never using it up.
