14 problems with the red meat type-2 diabetes study
Dr. Zoe Harcombe regularly reviews the studies that come out in the media. She often points out the flaws in the reporting and the studies themselves. This week she eviscerates the study that’s hitting the news about red meat increasing the risk of type-2 diabetes. Anyone with any sense and knowledge of diet knows there…

It’s costing more to remain keto?
They say meat prices are rising. I was in Costco today and bought a ribeye roast for $12.50/lb. and beef eye of round for $3.50/lb. That’s relatively the same price I’ve been paying for awhile.

How can you take a 24 hour eating period and extrapolate that out 15 years and assume people kept eating the same way over 15 years? In the study, researchers asked more than 37,000 adults in the United…

More baloney on eating meat
Each week it seems we get a new study on the effects of eating meat. Last week meat is great and this week meat is crap. Who knows what to believe anymore!! What I do know is that I’m not going to put much stock in a study that uses diaries to record what people…

Why science is never settled
Nina Teicholz wrote an op-ed in the LA Times today that talks about the new analysis of scientific studies surrounding red meat and how there is no conclusive evidence, one way or the other, as to red meat’s benefit or harm. It’s important reading because it highlights what is prevalent in all science lately. The…
