my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

Listen to me y’all: Always fit a protein into your depression meals.

ALWAYS

Plant-based, animal, idc. Your brain NEEDS protein to deal with what you are dealing with

If you are dealing with triggers & traumas, put a protein in all your meals to reduce the cortisol (stress hormone) in your body

The guidance — including a new food pyramid — emphasizes red meat, whole milk and other animal sources of protein, while downplaying plant-based offerings.

But top nutrition experts question the protein push, saying Americans already consume more protein than they need.

*animal* protein, not plant-based protein
The U.S.’ new dietary guidelines make notable changes to the country’s prior guidance about healthy eating, placing a higher emphasis on protein and full-fat dairy while advising people to avoid sugar and highly processed foods.
The 6 biggest changes in the new dietary guidelines
The updated recommendations invert the food pyramid to emphasize meat and dairy over whole grains.

Successful animal agriculture lobbying:

EAT MORE 🥩 #PROTEIN ‼️

NOW W MORE PROTEIN 🙌🏻

PROTEIN 🥚 PROTEIN 🥚 PROTEIN 📢

Simple facts:

Protein deficiency is near unheard of, fibre deficiency widespread

Human breastmilk has lowest protein content of any mammal on 🌏👀

PLANT BASED PROTEINS ARE COMPLETE 🌱

For the first time ever, plant based foods are now cheaper than meat.

Act accordingly. It may be where you get your protein.

Protein across plant-based milks varies widely. Some plant milks are naturally high in protein, providing as much protein as cow’s milk.

I’m watching a report that says most protein powders contain more lead than is medically safe. Apparently plant-based protein powders contain 9X the lead dairy-based products do.

Fascinating and deeply satisfying resolution to why adenovirus-based vaccines produced blood clots in 1 out of 200,000 people.

Two factors interacted:
a mutation in an antibody gene + weak similarities between a viral protein & a human blood-clotting protein = induced clotting cascade.
Five years after the rollout of Covid-19 vaccines started, it seems the mystery of why the Astra-Zeneca and J&J vaccines led to a rare but deadly side effect of unusual blood clots and bleeding has finally been solved. 

It's a fascinating case of molecular mimicry that may help make vaccine safer.🧪
