(3:00) One of the more recent articles was centered around red meat causing T2 diabetes.Another article claims intermittent fasting will cause cardiac death. (4:15) She shares a recent experience at a conference and addresses intermittent fasting. (7:00) She points out the details and explains how information was gathered.The headline is based on 31 people; however, the starting numbers of the study were significantly higher. This means that the entire study only used 1.5% of the information gathered. The report is then based on skewing the numbers. The next headline has to do with breast cancer screening. (27:00) There are very specific instances where highly extensive treatment may not have been necessary for some women. (33:00)The problem with this is that chemotherapy is toxic as well.Things like having the BRCA1 gene are not included in this, and shouldn't be; that is a different circumstance.
