I have a whole another cadre of folks who were eating a lot of meat and a lot of fat. And they said, "I went vegan. I went low-fat vegan." And all my health issues cleaned up and I'm much better now than I was before.
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

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.
People come up to me quite often and say something like, "Professor Gardner, I know you're all into whole food plant-based diets, and I I was vegan. I was vegetarian. I was trying that, and uh I I had some health issues, and I switched to be more fat and more meat." And I'm I'm almost embarrassed to be asking you this cuz my doctor told me I shouldn't do this either, but all my health issues have cleaned up. I'm looking really good.
he said my daughter had all these issues i tried a carnivore diet for her and all of her issues are gone
