It looks like healthy fats are together in a 'category' with olive oil > avocado > butter > nuts. I would swap butter and nuts but it kinda makes a bit of sense, just is very unclear especially to a layperson. The oil needs to be specifically labeled 'olive', the yogurt needs to be Greek unsweetened bc 99% of yogurts add a shitload of sugar, and red meat should be way further down

    Fair point, but i dont think it's entirely unreasonable to use class syllabus + guidance from lectures as part of the grading criteria. The professor makes references to the goals of the class itself to justify the grade, so we as 3rd party observers cant be too critical as we're missing important context.

    Is there any study that compares health effects of an ultra processed diet to a minimally processed one that actually keeps calorie consumption the same? Every study i see ignores this or links UPF intake to weight gain but doesnt go beyond that. Ie if i track my macros, I dont see any reason why i cant eat UPFs besides maybe more hunger.

    Except for Trump we have infinitely many documented cases of him lying about much more significant things, like bringing jobs back and prices down and $2000 tarriff dividends and Jan 6 and not being a pedo and making mexico pay for the wall etc etc etc

    Not disagreeing, but it's a drop in the bucket

    "same amount of calories"

    I think this is too big of an assumption. Ultra processed foods are generally less filling and easier to digest. Eating 1000 calories of cereal or potato chips is easy. Eating 5 chicken breasts at once borderline impossible for most people. Whole foods tend to make is harder to overeat. There are exceptions ofc, like nuts, but i think the general trend holds.
