Tbf unless you eat pulled pork daily I don't think it'll be a problem.
It's like that old saying ... "Everything in moderation".
I had to cut back on eggs. I have hens out back that I just let free roam but I hadnt been giving them away fast enough. So I hard boiled a couple dozen and was eating them throughout the day just as snacks to keep food costs low. After day twot I realized I needed to slow my intake. Just got to loop more people into my egg ring. Luckily people like free eggs right now.
Come spring I'll just put a thing down by the road so people can grab them when they drive by, but I do worry kids might have a field day with that lol
How many was too many?
I've got birds and while they've slowed laying I'm still eating 3-4 eggs a day and can't say I've noticed any ill effects
Too much!
this is not a reliable source
Why not?
he's a biased quack
He lists all his sources, what is your source for calling him that?
he still touts the china study.
And this is wrong? How?
Harriet Hall, writing for Science-Based Medicine, said that the book had references that do not support directly the claims made by the authors and that it did not explain the exceptions to his data, such as high rates of stomach cancer in China.
Stephan Guyenet reviewing the book for Red Pen Reviews commented that The China Study is a "scholarly and well-written book" but three of its key scientific claims are "not very well supported overall".
You discredit a webpage that cites all it's scientific sources and call Michael Greger a quak because two people think some aspects of a study he cites are inaccurate?! That's your argument? The study has pissed off the entire food industry, of course there are people who disagree with it. And even these two don't question the basic message: Whole food plant based diet is by far the best diet to heal our bodies and our planet. Is that his bias?
What are you fighting, Commie?
cherrypicking data to push an agenda isn't science.
What's the agenda?
selling books, I think.
Well, How Not To Die sold a lot of books, but he claims to give ALL book sales to charity and encourages readers to rent his books from libraries and to friends. Before his bestseller, he was on the road for years giving speeches, sleeping in his car. He doesn't sell any supplements, merchandise or snakeoil. This is not your typical behavior to get rich fast, is it?
Yeah he wants to spread a message, and this message is based on science. My public health insurance and even the states society for nutrition (Germany) shares the same recommendations by now, 10 years after How Not To Die was released. To me, he is more like the guy who discovered that leaded gasoline is highly harmful to humans and can't stop talking about it.
I didn't say he is trying to get rich fast
I think I made my point. Still not sure about yours. Maybe you're ... trolling?
I'm trying to make sure people aren't taken in by cherrypicked data masquerading as science.
Yeah, no...
You're no fighter for truth and justice here. You parrot Wikipedia, you cherrypick by citing only the two paragraphs from people who (don't even fully) disagree with him, you have obviously not read a single one of his books nor looked into the guys history. You don't reply to anything I said, you just repeat your false claim.
I told a guy who eats 3 eggs a day to not do it, linking a text which is completely backed by science. So please get out of the way, troll, you're slowing progress down.
calling me names doesn't change the truth
I'm only interested in the truth
given the labyrinthine website you linked it's hard to tell where the referenced papers are.
I'm fighting a people pushing agendas with bad science.
