✓Well SupportedRaw milk from cows or goats is beneficial for children after breastfeeding, and studies associate raw dairy consumption with lower rates of asthma, eczema, and allergies.✕Not SupportedObservational epidemiology studies on plant-based diets are flawed due to user bias and do not account for other healthy behaviors.✓Well SupportedRed meat does not cause health problems when tested with interventions, as it is a food humans have historically consumed.◐Partially SupportedVegetarians and non-vegetarians with healthy behaviors had similar low mortality rates in the UK Shopper study.Partially Supported

Interventional studies are needed to confirm the health effects of raw milk against allergies and asthma.

◐Partially SupportedEpidemiology regarding raw milk and its protective effect on allergies and asthma is more likely to be true than vegetable epidemiology because it is harder to identify confounding factors like healthy user bias.

◐Partially SupportedInterventional studies are needed to test the benefits of vegetables and the health effects of meat in the human diet.

◐Partially SupportedInterventional studies on the inclusion of fruits and vegetables in the diet often suggest they do not necessarily have a protective effect for humans.

◐Partially SupportedRaw milk may be protective for humans due to probiotics it contains.

✕Not SupportedThe nutrition community widely ignored the finding that fish consumption may increase melanoma rates.

◐Partially SupportedObservational research can increase faith in an association but cannot draw causative inference.

◐Partially SupportedPotential explanations for fish consumption increasing melanoma rates include microplastics, PFAS, heavy metals, or PCBs in fish.
