You know the one thing that sold more PCs for IBM than anything else they did? They released the PC Technical Manual. It told how to build your own PC. Because of it, there were lots of clones. Because there were a lot of clones, a lot of software was written for it. And because there was a lot of software, IBM sold many more PCs.
Clones simulate the market and because of them, you sell more of the original than would be possible without them.
The reason you don't want to eat HFCS is because it can cause metabolic syndrome: obesity, heart disease & strokes, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
There is nothing wrong with bacon. Everyone thinks something is because the FDA lied to them. You don't remember the FDA, those folks who said trans-fat was good for you. Saturated fat has not been shown to cause heart attacks. That's fructose. So enjoy your bacon. It's good for you.
The only way to stop this kind of abuse is to sue any and all bogus takedown notices as copyright infringement. Issuing a DMCA notice for material you do not hold the copyright for is infringement and should be subject to statutory damages.
The way to fight takedown claims is for the copyright holder of bogus claims to sue for statutory damages for copyright infringement. A bogus takedown infringes on the copyright and should carry the same penalty as other infringements.
A recent study of people over 50 determined that the more saturated fat the eat, the less likely they were to suffer from heart attacks or stroke. The 'Merican burger is health food.
Sorry but there are _no_ clinical trials that back up your claim. And there just as many observational studys that a low-carb, high-fat diet reduces obesity and bad cholesterol.
"That means it's really about treating the symptoms, rather than actually trying to prevent problems."
Of course. If the drug companies cure you, you stop buying their drugs. If they only treat the symptoms, then you buy their drugs for the rest of your life. Guaranteed return business. And if their drugs have side effects, they can sell you more drugs to deal with them.

Fat is Good for You...
It's carbs, that is, sugars and starches that are bad for you.
