This statement from Dr. Casey Means is full of so many falsehoods I don't even know where to start. Here is a small sampling, with my responses in bold. “I did not learn that for each additional serving of ultra-processed food we eat, early mortality increases by 18%." I've

Big wellness has people convinced that eating any “artificial sugar” is poison and somehow maple syrup and honey are infinitely healthier for weight loss because it’s “natural.”

1. Even buying people “healthy whole foods” won’t fix obesity. 2. Actually my medical school always promoted that lifestyle is first line treatment for lifestyle related chronic disease. 3. I literally have a podcast called Docs Who Lift and promote lifestyle heavily.

What’s shameful is that this individual can’t come up with a logical argument against my original tweet & resorts to personal attacks. Different day, same tactics for Big Wellness shills. For the record, I ALSO advocate for improvements in our food environment.

For all of you people who are defending maple syrup & honey as healthier than non nutritive sweeteners, please try to understand my original point about weight loss. Honey & maple syrup have way more calories per serving. You wanna eat honey & maple syrup, you do you boo!

On Monday, Ron Johnson used our tax dollars to host anti-science personalities to parrot lies to Congress claiming to be advocating for “health & nutrition” NONE of the panelists have relevant expertise. All have financial motives to erode trust in credible science & health. 1/

Here’s a tough truth we ALL need to face: while a healthy lifestyle is important, it alone may not be enough to prevent medical conditions for many people.
