    This is a highly suspect conclusion, and is discredited by the lack of control for variables and comprehensive nutrient/lifestyle analysis in this study, and by study I mean the analysis of undefined questionnaires some people filled out over a period of three decades.

        The same hemisphere maybe, but not really the same direction.

        That video rhetorically asks whether plant-based diets are healthier for type 2 diabetes than literally the unhealthiest meat-based diets in an unhealthy country. Their groundbreaking conclusion is yes.

        Not really the same as saying that by virtue of questionnaires, without any qualifiers or controlled data, that eating two servings of red meat raises your risk of type 2 diabetes by 62%.

        Any other sources beyond YouTube links? I don’t consider videos on the internet as evidence and since we’re talking scientifically, some actual sources beyond webpages and YouTube links might make it a more compelling argument. Instead of “meat bad slurp up your soy products “ global push.
