Eat. fiber. Cut saturated fat intake from cheese. Stop eating so much carcinogenic animal product. Stupid reactionary memes about your cheese addiction and poor diet will not unfuck your body or make your diet any less stupid.

Sorry to contradict you. This is an article about a rise in colon cancer and cardiovascular disease. Cheese consumption is not associated with either of those. Actually it seems to be protective for both issues:

A valid criticism, and I can't knock solid information. People should be mindful of the amount of calories they are getting from cheese, as being overweight definitely will exacerbate colon cancer & cardiovascular disease even if it would otherwise be neutral or benefitial. The hormonal effects can also be no bueno for prostate or breast cancer.

Of course, I have motives beyons health to advocate away regardless, but I'll be mindful of avoiding any non-factual talking points. Kudos.
