I've seen an influx of articles providing "look over here" reasons for potential cause of metabolic issues. A quick search shows, in the last week: Fake sugar, marijuana, the flu, keto diet, and lack of sleep. Maybe it's just the media returning to its usual hysterics ... or maybe they're trying to distract from something else.

Two things can be true! Maybe there is evidence suggesting problems with all of those things and maybe it's just being heavily pushed in media to distract from something else. Personally, I think most of the food we eat and the environments we live in are poisoned and that's how companies like it because it means you can't blame any one of them for health problems they know they are causing since it's impossible for anyone to say which of the countless poisoned things we're regularly exposed to was the cause of those issues.
