Mashup Score: 33Bad Health Journalism: ultra-processed edition - 17 day(s) ago
Ultra-processed foods are the hottest subject in nutrition. Is it too much to ask the journalists writing about them (and the researchers studying them) to think critically?
Categories: General Medicine News, General HCPsTweet-
The concept of ultraprocessed food has always struck me as more pseudoscience than science. Why don't other journalists share my skepticism? Bad Health Journalism: ultra-processed edition https://t.co/MLBdusIouh https://t.co/sqGh0bvJvV

Mashup Score: 66As obesity rates skyrocket, Dietary Guidelines go from being pro-vegetable to anti-meat. How'd that happen? - 1 month(s) ago
Watch carefully and you can see the sleight of hand built into the creation of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (courtesy of the Harvard School of Public Health)

Ever wonder why the USDA’s famous Dietary Guidelines for Americans keep promoting variations on the same mostly-plant diets, as the population it serves just gets ever fatter and more diabetic? https://t.co/t2jRPh3Qze https://t.co/u1YO5IwkZ5

Mashup Score: 42Bad Health Journalism, an addendum - 2 month(s) ago
The Atlantic defends seed oils on the basis that Americans “stopped cooking with tallow for a reason.” But a good reason? I have to take exception.

Mashup Score: 35A Substack update, MDs reinforcing failure and ill news about sugar (a clever study!) - 3 month(s) ago
What’s the problem with nutrition education in medical school–quantity or quality? And will sugar consumption in early life cause disease decades later? Economists (not nutritionists) find a clever way to ask that question?
Source: unsettledscience.substack.comCategories: General Medicine News, General HCPsTweet-
The military has a term for it: reinforcing failure. Is the problem with nutrition education in med school one of quantity (not enough) or quality? & economists (not nutritionists) find a clever way to study early life effects of sugar consumption. https://t.co/aUEREnOL7l https://t.co/LH4OfAbItV
