Of course you&#x27;d say that when you collaborate and get funding from the industry&#x2F;companies selling these animals products: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gtr.ukri.org&#x2F;projects?ref=BB%2FI006087%2F1&amp;pn=0&amp;fetchSize=10&amp;selectedSortableField=date&amp;selectedSortOrder=ASC" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gtr.ukri.org&#x2F;projects?ref=BB%2FI006087%2F1&amp;pn=0&amp;fetc...</a><p>You don&#x27;t get to talk about health when you&#x27;re supported by Nestle, Unilever, Coca Cola, Pepsico...

What a bunch of codswallop!<p>I pop pills for the nutrients that may not be provided in sufficient amount (or in poorly absorbed form).<p>My blood test and health are fine.<p>Maybe the UK should look at the US for inspiration and bring more freedom to the market for supplements.

Quite a misleading, borderline clickbait-ey title imo.<p>The first paragraph:<p>&gt; Young women who consume little to no red meat and dairy are at risk of developing vitamin deficiencies that could lead to health problems later in life, a scientist has said.<p>Besides that no study is cited and the scientist might be taken out of context, the claim refers to women in a specific age-range that eat neither (red) meat, nor consume any fish, dairy or supplements.<p>A more fitting title: &quot;Scientist says your health might be at risk if you don&#x27;t have a balanced diet including your necessary nutrients.&quot;, but nobody would click on that.<p>HN guidelines:<p>&gt; Otherwise please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait
