Animal experiments mislead medical research and fail to predict human drug effects about 95% of the time.
Human-relevant methods—like organ-on-a-chip and AI modeling—are safer and more accurate.

The new Dietary Guidelines include progress but still reflect industry influence.
They promote meat and dairy linked to chronic disease instead of clearly prioritizing plant-based nutrition.
Science should lead nutrition policy.
