GM 🦁 This is Andrew's Apples, the 2-min health email the CDC and FDA do not yet know about. Aight, let's go.

🤕 Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch! The average American adult is battling at least four different health problems. Most notably, these include back pain, headaches, allergies, and bad sleep. The overwhelming majority of said adults have one or more "minor health condition" and experience significant discomfort. 🍎 Andrew's Take. I would bet the farm that these conditions could be reversed in a few months with 80% whole foods diet, 45 minutes of sunlight (the more naked the better), saltwater daily (drink for electrolytes and swim if you live near an ocean), stop porn, never sitting for more than 1 hour straight, strength training 3x a week, and walk 7,000 steps. No you don't have to eliminate gluten or sugar completely... this is cult-talk from unrealistic twitter health freaks. The FDA food pyramid is dead-on-arrival but the extremists on the other end are displaying antisocial levels of no-compromise.

🥩 Is plant 'meat' healthy? Hopefully GQ wrote the last piece on this topic for a while. The evidence, when looked at objectively - i.e. not through the lens of "equity" nor "access" nor "environment" - is that plant meat is a processed food and should be eaten as such. Meaning, sparingly, if at all.  🍎 Andrew's Take. The easiest way to debunk 95%+ of the health claims by these plant meat companies is to go to their website. You will notice that (a) the health claims are buried or absent altogether or (b) the health claims are somewhat prominent but the bread crumbs lead back to either a dated study and/or a puff piece "study" published in Vox or Vice, instead of peer-reviewed research on pubmed sans shady financial backing. I still buy M&Ms on occasion because it's an A1 candy!! What I respect about the old school junk food brands is that they seldom push propaganda on how, idk, you're getting good protein from the peanut M&Ms lol. In our new attention economy, feelings are everything and science be damned. Plant meat is not made of nutrients, it's made of bleeding red sentiment.
