Who knows but odds are MAHA won't actually clean up the food supply.

We'll find out from @foodfixco.bsky.social, but I expect Betteridge's law applies and any U.S. push for better labels & reformulation will hit the same obstacles as in Europe, per @alessandroford.bsky.social for @politico.eu:

Europe’s biggest dietary problem? Lobbyists, says Nutri-Score creator.
France’s Serge Hercberg warns that disinformation is shortening the lives of consumers.

5/ Bottom line:

Yoga might help with CRF after treatment—but current evidence doesn’t let us say for sure.
If you're considering yoga, go for it—but don’t expect it to be a cure-all just yet.

4/ Why the uncertainty?

🧪 Small sample sizes
👁️ No blinding (hard to blind yoga!)
📉 Missing long-term data
📋 Varied outcome measures

3/ After treatment:

🧘‍♂️ CRF: Yoga probably helps in the short term (moderate certainty).
🌱 QoL: Small potential benefit—but the evidence is still very uncertain.

No strong data on long-term effects.

2/ During cancer treatment:

📉 CRF: Evidence is very uncertain. Yoga may have little to no impact in short, medium, or long term.
🙂 QoL: Yoga may help slightly in the short & medium term—but again, certainty is low.

Bottom line:
🧠 Facts help
💬 Peer pressure (the good kind) helps more
🎯 Changing minds ≠ changing behavior

These findings aren’t just about COVID—they could shape better communication for future health crises too.

✅ Education & info campaigns increased vaccine uptake significantly (RR 1.23)
✅ Social norms framing worked even better (RR 1.28)
🤷 Most strategies didn’t shift intention much
📈 Slight increase in confidence with gain-framed messages

das Gesundheitssystem durch nicht-übertragbare Erkrankungen (zb Adipositas) finanziell stark belastet ist 🚐

🔍Wo sind die effektiven, evidenzbasierten Maßnahmen, die darüber hinaus auch von der Bevölkerung akzeptiert werden? (Werbeverbote, Tabak-Kontrolle, Steuersenkungen auf gesunde Lebensmittel..)
