I'm glad they are finally getting around to finding out things that were supposed to be bad for us to eat are actually good for us. Some of that has to be because RFK is doing his thing publicly now. I knew the Covid vaccine was a bull$hit money making danger just because of how it was being pushed and given special immunity for damages...I mean really, children and young adults were never really at risk for Covid to wipe them out.
And autism is off the charts for children in this nation...what could it be? It's gotta be something that their bodies are exposed to which causes such a change. How is it a huge portion of children have their DNA collapse at the same time across a population if not (well, it could be DNA damage from something their parents were exposed to but that's the actually same thing right). I am aghast at all of the required vaccines for children and all of the chemicals pumped into our food...of course they are safe, right? I mean right? Right?
No one would jeopardize the children of a nation to make a buck. Right? Hell, we don't need the Chinese or Russians to kill us with the food and drug companies running amuck under government immunity regulations. Oh yeah, that and planned parenthood's whose founder Margaret Sanger included advocating eugenics to wipe out "defective" people.
Now there is a study that says coffee is good for you because it could prolong your life: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/06/250625075024.htm (https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/06/250625075024.htm)
Yet another study says that eggs are not the orb of doom for your cardiovascular system they once said they were: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10304460/ (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10304460/)
I don't call myself a scientist but I did fool around and get a masters degree in engineering which causes one to study and question like a scientist when necessary. Scientists study, study, study...they enjoyed school..practical guys usually don't enjoy school it's too restrictive. In fact, a lot of scientists are not at all practical and have tunnel vision striving way to hard to isolate their study to a particularly rigorous regime which is not practical for research. And don't get me started on the bulk of them who are sellouts to whoever funds their studies whether mindlessly providing restricted research which will have it's results misused by intentionally restricting the study parameters or because the funding body parrots only results it wants the world to see.
Ya'll remember how eating animal fat and butter was going to kill us all with heart attacks by the time we were 45 to 50? We had to eat all of the newfangled oils created from veggies which they now know causes all sorts of physical ailments up to and including cancer. Be practical. I "knew" that was bull$hit to because all of the old people who lived on butter, beef tallow for cooking oil, greasy pork, etc. lived quite well...they tended to die a bit young due to injury and untreated disease. Not that they did not get sick, it's at least a big part of dying young that they did not have antibiotics...my mom remembered the wonder drug of aspirin way before there were antibiotics which saved lives like now.

Pay enough and you too can get a study stating EXACTLY whatever you wish it to say.

"Who paid for the study or poll, and what did they want to prove?"
Just watch the daily political polls. Same question and 180-degree difference, depending on who's poll it is.

According to Autism Speaks https://www.autismspeaks.org/ 1 in 36 8 year-olds were identified with autism in 2020. And 1 in 31 4-8 year-olds were identified with autism in 2022. Did the rate get worse from 2020- 2022? Or is it higher because they included 5 times as many kids in the age group? There have been autistic people about as long as people have been around, but doctors are now slapping labels on kids left and right. This one's autistic, that one has ADHD, let's medicate them. I haven't seen any evidence that vaccines have anything to do with it, but I'm not really looking into it. Conspiracy theorists say it's true, so it probably isn't, but they have to get something right once in awhile. Like a phychic who makes hundreds of predictions and occasionally one comes true. Then they claim how they were right all along.

As an autistic I view so-called "Autism Speaks" with great skepticism. In their releases they use aggregated numbers across the entire spectrum from nofunctional all the way to Gates/Jefferson class, but they tend to ONLY present the worst experiences of low-functioning autism.
I live with (note I do not SUFFER) Asperger's, and while it can have its pain in the ass moments it is very much a double-edged sword IF you have the will and the "Stick-To-Itiveness" to focus on finding your strengths and learning to play to them. A great deal of our childhood mental-disorder industry is largely Big Pharma created... between children born from addict moms and placed in foster homes, teachers of a certain generation who couldn't understand that kids are naturally fidgety and demanded we be chemically zombified (*1980s overdiagnosis and mis-DX as ADHD has entered the chat*) and Karens who see their children as status symbols rather than family members and would rather rely on Mother's Little Helper than actually do the work of being a parent because their schedule is full with book club, wine club, PTA, the sausage on the side...
Granted, I was IMMENSELY lucky because the pshrink who was working with me was NOT a shill for Big Pillpushing and actually wrote me an Rx for extra Psych classes in college, and worked with my alma mater's Psych Department to plan and implement a Cognitive/Behavioral Therapy plan for me - and when The Now Ex came into my life, he looped in with my buddies in Campus Security and their friends in the Sheriff's Department to extend that to the range and ensure that it was done so safely. God bless you, Doc H, wherever you are... He sent me a strange angel in you but one that got results.

Not only due to administered FDA approved drugs but I also believe that RFK is right when he says much of this is the crap in our food supply.

Lemme just drop a relevant funny quote from a moldy TV rerun...
Isles: "Coffee, bad."
Rizzoli: "Death... WORSE."
