  • Full of misinformation and half truths

    These women are completely out of their depth. I was so excited to listen but was quickly let down. They don’t cite data. They don’t provide research. They aren’t experts in anything. “Doing research” is not reading Instagram posts about vaccines from a chiropractors. Do better.

Why America Is Sick: The Truth About the 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines
