THREAD ALERT 
Let's play the game where I call out all the dogma in an editorial against meat consumption from a plant-based proponent
I wish I was joking, but "environment/TMAO" both mentioned in the paper

DOGMA #1
"The absence of RCTs on this topic is explained by insurmountable challenges"
We have plenty of trials with ketogenic diets, rich in red meat that improve glycemia and metabolic syndrome.

DOGMA #2
"The time frame is daunting due to the nature of chronic diseases that develop over decades before they present as incident cases."
Thankfully we can use CGMs & not dogma to demonstrate that glycaemia in DM2 is immediately ameliorated by adding meat & removing carbs

DOGMA #3
"The sample size needed ... is in the thousands."
Wrong. You can prove the opposite quite easily and elegantly. Take 10 poorly controlled diabetics and feed them meat versus your vegan progananda, wait 12 hours, follow for as long as you need, days, weeks, months....

DOGMA #4
"Accurate monitoring of adherence is beyond the capacity of currently available assessment tools"
Wrong, remotely monitored weight, CGMs, breath ketones and serum ketones could easily monitor adherence. Some of us already do this.

DOGMA #5
"RCTs of red meat consumption and incident chronic disease clinical outcomes have never been conducted, and likely never will."
So, stop publishing shit trials, confounded by healthy user bias, to peddle dogma and start publishing trials that will matter

DOGMA #6
"Mechanistic plausibility of beneficial effects on glucose and insulin dynamics, or inflammation, from substitution of specific comparators for red meat..."
bullshit. Eat meat, use a CGM, check crp, not hard to disprove, its been done u are just ignoring the data

DOGMA #7
"It is beyond the scope of this editorial to build an evidence-based mechanistic case for each comparator based on the unique differences each one has in the set of nutrients and dietary components listed above."
Because its all lies and dogma.

DOGMA #8
"Another relevant line of evidence—planetary health"
PEOPLE's NUTRITION BEFORE YOUR DOGMA
Children IQ benefits from meat, MetS/diabetic patients benefit from meat (see Virta), plant-based dogma associated with poor mental health, osteoporosis/sacropenia.

DOGMA #9
"CG received gift funds from Beyond Meat in 2019 that were used to conduct an RCT comparing red meat to Beyond Meat products."
Lets be clear, I am biased. I heal people with meat. Lets also be clear. You are biased.
