Previous to that I watch the Joe Rogan podcast and on his podcast he talks about people in the sugar industry hiding how much damage sugar does in your diet, he cites various sources, I watched what the health and it said the exact opposite. Sugar is fine, the meat industry is blaming sugar when it is in fact meat that's to blame for things like diabetes and obesity.
In general I try not to go overboard on sugar and processed meat anyway so I'm not all that worried.
There's general areas where I think people prop themselves up as a specialist expert when they're really just taking shots in the dark, especially when it's something as vague as an expert in sexual relationships, which is another podcast I was listening to but just finding it annoying listening to someone who is just so sure of themselves in a topic where I don't think it's reasonable for anyone to be so sure.

‘What the Health’ is an unscientific, unobjective, cherry picked load of crap. Documentaries like these are exactly the reason we need public trust in experts. Many people are of the opinion that nutrition science is the one field where experts can’t be trusted, and anyone with an opinion and access to the internet can be an expert. As an RD, it’s maddening.
