The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
I know at least in me and again this is just the end of one there's a direct observational correlation between the amount of saturated fat and the amount of poly and monounsaturated fat in my body
my LDL was 126 128 milligrams per deciliter and I was eating more olive oil I was eating more monounsaturated fat and I was eating less saturated fat because I wasn't eating as much meat and I wasn't eating as much Tallow now if people have my story they know that in medical school I was fairly healthy but I had eczema which led to the whole carnivore diet Rabbit Hole etc etc but people have often looked at my lipids in the past and said Paul you have familial hypercholesterolemia they've often said that disparagingly but I can prove that I don't have familial hypercholesterolemia because my LDL has been 126 in the past it's actually been closer to 100 in the past
