About the video. They claim a bunch of studies show this and that. But there are studies that contradict those studies. There are studies showing eating a very healthy diet will not increase your lifespan that much, maybe a year or two... Of course, every system has its best before date, be it cardiovascular, insulin /blood sugar, deteriorating telomeres and loss of cells (alzheimers/parkinsons), mutation of cell DNA causing cancer, shit just gets rotten whether you eat good or not.

Charcuteries increasing incidence of colorectal cancer by 18%. The grammar here is misleading. The lifetime prevalence of colorectal cancer is 1/21, which is 4.7%, the probability increases to 5.62%, or one in 18. Just a quick fact I googled. So if you are genetically predisposed to this the chances are high already and get a little higher with charcuteries. If not then you are more likely to die from something else before colorectal cancer catches up to you, charcuteries or not.

The dietary cholesterol theory has been disproved many times.

Salmon is now not good for you? In the beginning of the video they claim the corporations win when they instill doubt in you. And then they claim salmon is not good for you. LATER (nice grammar here!) they claim it's farmed fish.

The rhetorics in the video are good. The grammar has its holes. The logic is imperfect. Why do they want to sell this video for money though? Why does someone believe taking your money will make you healthier? Can't you just write up the articles, present your argument, and do the public good?

Also a big minus for the speakers not making a thorough comparison of charcuteries in general. High vs low quality. The sausage made in your grandmas old village where they just use flesh of the cow vs factory made. Cheese? Are we talking about a $10 per lb chevre or that plasticy sliced "cheese" in vacuum packs in the grocery store, for cents? Wow, they first present to you how instilling doubt makes them win, then they make you doubt everything. Then they interview obese people in the 3-400lb range about how they "gotta take all deez meds".

Garbage.
