    Which specific things is he correct about? And for the ones that are supposedly correct, what is he doing about them?

    So far, I see no real evidence that seed oils have any problem whatsoever. The pearl-clutching over things like high fructose corn syrup - meh. People should avoid soda at least as much as they should avoid alcohol (and meat and dairy).

    So far, I’ve seen him talk about “highly processed foods”. Okay, kudos for that. But add in the hysterical takes about seed oils, ivermectin, HCQ, and his anti-vaccine horseshit…well, he can take a flying leap. The amount of damage this guy will do, including killing people, is way too high.
