It was erythritol, not stevia, that showed the clotting effect in specific cultures cells and mice. Erythritol is a common bulking agent for packet stevia sweeteners (tho not all) but stevia used in drink formulations often does not have erythritol ( it is on the label if it does). Poppi/Ollipop don't have erythritol.

You've built an entire straw man - I've never argued for 'protecting ppl from information'. I criticized his moralized take on people's health due to a lack of 'virtue' and not using his platform to give MORE information about barriers to public health beyond and interventions that have been actually shown to work in trials. You claim to have agency but have knee jerked defending someone from a criticism that was never made - you might want to audit that supposed agency.

Genuinely hope you sleep well at night knowing you provide a bunch of protocols that havent been tested in any meaningful clinical research and don't use your platform for any real interrogation of issues that we face in public health beyond the lack of available protocol education. Providing people information and shaming them as lacking virtue for not following is the basics of failing health advocacy but as you said, it'll go great in the new 'climate'. Looking forward to your methylene blue brand deal.

Health fitness and wellness have grown massively as industries as chronic disease prevalence (esp obesity) has increased. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps and become virtuous (while buying my supplements) has never been serious public health policy, just grifter logic. This is fairytale level 'return to the good ol days' that never existed.

@NutritionNerd I love that in reality, I'll just go from my PhD level job where I collect mouse poop and pipette 50 different ways to an entry level RD job that'll pay the same. Take that, elites!

You've seen nutrition epi confuse the public about eggs, be used by merchants of doubt climate change deniers, now it's being used to argue for defunding NIH. Talk about 'broader impacts'!

@evolutionarypsy Money will def be the only thing that talks. Universities would be better off spreading propaganda level fear about the economic devastation of this to make the stock market dip cause that's the only thing 47 will care about.

@sguyenet @TamarHaspel Came here to say the same, tho I'm 100% sure the OP only made this point as a pro meat argument.

Last year, $9B of the $35B that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) granted for research was used for administrative overhead, what is known as “indirect costs.” Today, NIH lowered the maximum indirect cost rate research institutions can charge the government to 15%, above what many major foundations allow and much lower than the 60%+ that some institutions charge the government today. This change will save more than $4B a year effective immediately.

Pretty certain this administration favors the 9- and 13-cis isomers 😅
About to click "submit" on my new grant proposal, "Diverse signaling mechanisms engaged by systemic all-trans retinoic acid." Wish me luck!
