What does this have to do with nutrition? Nothing. It’s just me responding to requests to use our research team to dig into other controversial areas like mammograms (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/9-out-of-10-women-misinformed-about-mammograms/) where there’s multibillion dollar industries pressing on the scales, making it hard to disentangle the truth. We’re doing what we can. Too bad there aren’t other websites like this to offer objective evidence-based analyses on all the important questions in life. If you want to support our work please consider donating (https://nutritionfacts.org/donate/).

The “Fairness Doctrine” example shows to what extent the purveyors of unhealthy products will go to keep the truth from the American public.

The trans fat story is an excellent example of this, which I just did two videos about, Controversy Over the Trans Fat Ban (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/controversy-over-the-trans-fat-ban) and Banning Trans Fat in Processed Foods but Not Animal Fat (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/Banning-Trans-Fat-in-Processed-Foods-but-Not-Animal-Fat).
Isn’t that Fairness Doctrine example amazing? Just goes to show how powerful the truth can be.

Potential culprits include the trans fat in meat, the saturated fat, cholesterol, heme iron, advanced glycation end products (glycotoxins), animal protein (especially leucine), zoonotic viruses, and industrial pollutants that accumulate up the food chain.

What a laundry list of a video! I know I just buzzed through those, but have more in-depth videos on each of the major topics:
Advanced glycation end products:
• Glycotoxins (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/glycotoxins/)
• Avoiding a Sugary Grave (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/avoiding-a-sugary-grave/)

• Pollutants in Salmon and Our Own Fat (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/pollutants-in-salmon-and-our-own-fat/)
The link between meat and diabetes may also be due to a lack of sufficient protective components of plants in the diet. That’s the subject of my next video: How May Plants Protect Against Diabetes? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-may-plants-protect-against-diabetes)

What happens when brown rice is put to the test in a randomized controlled crossover trial?
Subscribe to NutritionFacts.org's free e-newsletter and receive a recipe from Dr. Greger's brand-new cookbook, The How Not to Diet Cookbook: https://nutritionfacts.org/subscribe/
Here’s the link to the video I cited: If White Rice is Linked to Diabetes, What About China? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/if-white-rice-is-linked-to-diabetes-what-about-china/).

If brown is good, what about all the even more colorful varieties? See Brown, Black, Purple and Red Unlike White on Rice (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/brown-lack-purple-and-red-unlike-white-on-rice).
For another interventional trial with whole grains, check out Whole Grains May Work As Well As Drugs (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/whole-grains-may-work-as-well-as-drugs/)
What about the so-called “rice diet”? See:

How could the simple difference between whole and refined grains make such a difference? For a clue, you’ll have to wait until my next video Gut Dysbiosis - Starving Our Microbial Self (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/gut-dysbiosis-starving-our-microbial-self)
