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.
how much sacran those rats were being fed to develop these liver tumors um and again I I think it's just it's a very slippery slope to then say oh well then these things are poisonous because it's sort of like well but look by that logic I mean I told you that even if you took 20 times the dose of Tylenol you'd be dead and by the way you'd be dead like much quicker than you would die from this cancer um and here we're talking about 800 times the dose over the entire duration of a life so you you know at that level just to be glib Nick Like Oxygen is toxic to people right we have 21% oxygen in the air that we're breathing if I put you in a 100% oxygen environment indefinitely uh the the amount of free radicals you would develop would kill you so uh everything gets toxic at some point
