Nutritionfacts is ideologically driven operation. They only present one side of the argument. Plant based diet first, facts second. Being a nonprofit doesn't make you immune from bias. It's not just money perverting the field, but also ideology.
The whole field of nutrition is divided into camps, when they conduct meta-analyses of all the literature, they pick inclusion/exclusion criteria so that the side that they are championing wins.
Your comment is valuable, but at least Nutrionfacts seems to present one side of the argument factually.
There are operations like 'Brand Power'[1] which masquerades like consumer fact checking service but in fact they just 3rd party advertisers for brands.
When I first saw their Ads in India, I thought it's disingenuous and then I learnt that they do the same even in developed countries.

Metabolic syndrome is on the same spectrum of chronic illnesses as type 2 diabetes. It's not surprising that even non-diabetics can benefit from t2d drug metformin considering that only 11% Americans are fully metabolically healthy meaning they meet none of the criteria for metabolic syndrome.
But if you are one of these metabolically healthy people, you probably wont benefit from metformin.
>Did you really think you could say that “much of what was in that memo is fair to debate” and “portions of the memo violate our Code of Conduct and cross the line by advancing harmful gender stereotypes in our workplace” without me asking you to clarify which sections you found fair for debate and which portions violated which specific portions of your Code of Conduct?
I don't think google knows where to draw the line between what is fair and what is harmful in the memo. I think they are just reacting to the media outrage. If they tried to draw the line it would just get shot down by both sides of the argument, only fueling the outrage.
