Unprocessed red meat is probably fine - my point is that Mediterranean diets contains processed red meat. Is the study counting that?
Alcohol is also consumed by Mediterraneans. Is the study covering that?
Is the volume of calories controlled for, or the ammout of red meat, or alcohol?
I’m being a bit facetious with my stupid 6000 calories example, but thats kind of my point. It is not clear what a Mediterranean diet is from the write up. So we’re both making assumptions without data.
You’re assuming moderate = good. I’m being flippant by pointing out that that isn’t what the write up says, because it isn’t clear what it is testing for.
Sure, all things in moderate is a valid point. But thats not what the study is apparently saying.
It is equally valid to say “exercise is good”. Sure, but what has that to do with a Mediterranean diet - which is the missing bit of info.
Anyway, not trying to piss you off. Enjoy your drink, in moderation of course ;)
Let’s skip meat. To each their own. Or sometimes, I like to say, to reach their round.
4 out of 5 blue groups consume alcohol regularly. Again, not good or bad, just is. Most do it in moderation, and that’s seemingly good or okay. These people are regularly living to 100+ years old!
I enjoy facetiousness. I enjoy you. I’m quite facetious myself.
Yes! Moderate is good. That’s the whole point. Moderation. Without moderation… Shit happens. Shit faced. Shit in the pants (literal). Shitting on people (hopefully just figuratively.) Which is not good. Unless you’re into that? Heh.
You can never take a single study as gospel. There are countless studies in the literature and we obviously will have some confirmation bias. I think the ultimate goal is figuring out what works for you/me. People have different genotypes. Some people do really well on high carb low fat while others do great on high fat low carb. But we all need protein… I think we can all agree on that.
I’m wishing you the best. Trust yourself. Be authentic. It’s appreciated.
Lol, ok. Interesting response.
