********CRITIQUES, RULES, AND NOTES********

Be aware of the following rules before posting comments:
- Please do not post summaries of the video in the comments - it damages retention on the video and YouTube is less likely to promote it (these videos cost me a lot of money to produce).

Critiques of my work are welcome! Please be aware of the following notes & rules before submitting critique:

The information provided in this study analysis is limited to the subject and outcomes detailed in the study analyzed [For example: “Consuming sugar (subject) raises insulin (outcome).”] and is not meant to be an all-encompassing education on every health outcome of the subject (unless otherwise stated). I welcome all respectful critique of the study as I may have missed a key detail that you may catch; if that is the case, I will make an ‘Amendment’ to the video and credit you (thank you for making science knowledge better!). Also be aware that I receive hundreds of YouTube comments per day, so the only way your critique can be considered is if you follow the steps outlined below. Finally, YouTube auto-deletes links, so I do not see most comments with links attached.

RULES:
If your comment is rude, you will be banned.
If your comment is not about the studies/topics at hand (i.e. extending to other outcomes not discussed) or offers critique with no scientific basis, it is unlikely to receive a response.

If you can follow these rules, I will try to address your critique and if there is merit, I will add an AMENDMENT to the content in question and pin it so everyone can see it.

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Avoid adding milk to tea to preserve vascular benefits

Adding milk to tea can completely eliminate its positive effects on flow-mediated dilation, a key measure of blood vessel health.

Avoid milk to maximize health benefits of coffee and tea

It is believed that proteins in milk bind to the beneficial polyphenols in coffee and tea, making them inert and unable to be absorbed by the body.

Avoid milk in coffee to maximize polyphenol absorption

Adding milk to coffee was shown to reduce the absorption of its most potent polyphenols, like chlorogenic acid, over a 24-hour period.

Evaluate long-term health outcomes beyond short-term data on milk

The evidence against milk is based on short-term measures, which may not reflect actual long-term health outcomes like cancer or cardiovascular disease rates.

Investigate long-term health outcomes of coffee and tea with milk

The speaker could not find any long-term studies over decades that tracked actual health outcomes for people drinking coffee and tea with versus without milk.

Drink coffee and tea plain for optimal health benefits

Despite weak evidence, if you want the best health 'bang for your buck,' consuming coffee and tea plain is likely superior to drinking it with milk.
