Oxford/Harvard researcher · low-carb advocate
Real credentials, but diet claims rest on a single advocacy network; graded on independent evidence.
Evidence vs. their claims
Across 11 testable claims, where the weight of independent evidence lands — on their side, or against them. Their own research network is excluded as evidence.
Read relative to their stance: when they dispute a claim and the evidence supports that claim, it counts as against them. Each row shows their stance, so you can see which way the evidence cuts.
