Alcohol's DARK SECRET: questioning the timing of the latest warnings
Hold on to your tinfoil hats.
Dr. Philip McMillan has posted a video about the recent surge in warnings (since January 2nd) of the link between alcohol and cancer. He questions the timing of all of the warnings. In his video he repeatedly asks - Why now? He suspects that the government will be releasing new data in the next few weeks or months revealing an unexpected increase in cancer.
The thought is that the experts and the news media are have begun conditioning us to accept that our unchecked lifestyles are the blame.
The impact of the third leg of the triangle will not be mentioned.

RE: NotebookLM Podcasts about Peat's articles
@yerrag - For a battle of the AIs, here is my go-to.
Peatbot.com: The context provided from Ray Peat's newsletter discusses resveratrol in the context of its purported anti-aging effects and its ability to mimic calorie restriction. It highlights that resveratrol is being marketed as a longevity-increasing drug, with claims that it can prevent obesity, cure type-2 diabetes, slow aging, and increase longevity. However, the newsletter also points out that the mass media and some medical journals may not be providing a balanced description of its biological effects.
Resveratrol is described as a defensive fungicidal antibiotic and a phytoestrogen, which suggests it could be perceived as a stressor by yeast. The newsletter implies skepticism about the broad claims made regarding resveratrol's health benefits, particularly when extrapolating findings from yeast to humans.
In summary, while resveratrol is marketed with various health claims, the context suggests that these claims should be approached with caution, and the biological effects of resveratrol may not be fully understood or accurately represented in popular media.
