********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:

Be mindful that this content is not all encompassing on the subject at hand and is self-limited for brevity to reach a wider audience. 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 (thank you!).

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Monitor protein intake to prevent muscle loss on vegan diet

The vegan group consumed less protein, which is also less anabolic, potentially leading to muscle loss that was not measured by the researchers.

Design omnivore diet to match vegan health results

An omnivorous diet might yield the exact same health results as the vegan diet if it were designed to have the same number of calories.

#nutrition

Measure LDL particle number for accurate heart risk assessment

LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) is a less precise marker for cardiovascular risk than measuring LDL particle number (LDL-P) or ApoB directly.

Avoid misinterpreting cholesterol data on vegan diets

You cannot conclude that HDL cholesterol went down or triglycerides went up on the vegan diet, because the changes were not statistically significant.

Question the validity of TMAO heart risk data from vegan diet study

The finding that the vegan diet lowered TMAO was only significant after researchers removed data from three participants, which is a questionable practice.

Discover vegan diet's impact on spontaneous calorie reduction

The vegan group's health improvements might be due to spontaneously eating fewer calories and losing more weight, not necessarily the diet's composition.
