ah, and last message ending this from friend (looks like the other continued messages are almost hidden in client Primal, gotta manually hit cloud button, kinda went out of order a bit)

Friend: Fair points about artificial sweeteners. I have accepted that the more mad made and processed an item the less likely it's good for us. Human bodies have evolved over thousands of years and there is inherent biological learnings to what's good and what's bad for the body. And the seems like the man made and processed stuff is just not something our bodies are designed for.

However, I would say like understanding of economics, science also evolves. And like economics, I am sure science also has influence from predatory sources. So the question is how do you pick and evaluate your sources of information and derive your own opinion.

At least going back to the topic, the show highlights few things that have been known for a long time... such as cholesterol is bad for you, and having visceral fat deep in your organs is bad for you. Red meats have more of these fats. The study also highlights how meat is raised, the energy needed to raise the meat, and hygiene involved in meat farms. I don't think there is much spin in the information, in face a lot of is not even new information. What's new is the fact that the study compared twins so that you can see the nature versus nurture (essentially same body, but different controlled variables). The results essentially show what is already known, but highlight the impact of nurture... the choices we make. Again, not something new, it's just something that's getting more attention now that we have paying acute attention to physical health and environmental sustainability.
