Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.

that means obesity has to be mostly on the energy intake side that's where the big lever is that's where you get all your your you know that's where all the leverage is and um you know what is about the intake side well i you know for me i think it's ultra processed foods

if i had to pick the one biggest driver i would have to pin it on ultra processed foods
