"Nutrition nonsense"? I beg to differ. I have at least over 1,000 pages of scientific studies showing a vegan (and less so a vegetarian) diet significantly reduces inflammation, decreases risks for about a dozen different major diseases, including ALL the killer diseases (heart disease, cancer, strokes, diabetes, obesity, etc), and significantly increases longevity, by avg. of 7 years. Among other things, it's why so many athletes have shifted to a plant-based diet, to radicaly reduce inflammation.

Here's a really fun one from two years ago that i just saw the other day:

Shah B, Newman JD, Woolf K, et al. Anti-inflammatory effects of a vegan diet versus the American Heart Association–recommended diet in coronary artery disease trial. J Am Heart Assoc. 2018;7:e011367

It was summarized here:

Vegan Diet Reduces Inflammation More than AHA-Recommended Diet


A vegan diet works better than the American Heart Association-recommended diet for heart disease prevention, according to a study published by the American Heart Association (AHA). Researchers randomized 100 participants with coronary artery disease to either a vegan diet (no meat, poultry, eggs, dairy, or fish) or an AHA-recommended diet (fewer servings of non-fish animal protein, more servings of fish, and only low- or no-fat dairy) for eight weeks. The primary endpoint marker for inflammation, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, improved significantly more in the vegan group, compared with the AHA group. The authors conclude a vegan diet should be considered to help avoid adverse outcomes among heart disease patients.
