A note from Dr. Greger:
I am thrilled to introduce Dr. Kristine Dennis, our Senior Research Scientist. Dr. Dennis is an experienced nutrition and public health scientist who joined NutritionFacts to expand our research capacity — diving deep into the research, writing scripts, and now, narrating her own videos! You’ll continue to see videos from both of us interspersed in no particular order. I’m so happy Kristine is with NutritionFacts to help expand our capacity and perspectives.

The cause of sarcoidosis is unknown, but new research indicates that mycobacteria, like MAP bacteria found in dairy and meat products, are likely involved in some sarcoidosis cases.

In the video, I mentioned Does Paratuberculosis in Meat Trigger Type 1 Diabetes? (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/does-paratuberculosis-in-meat-trigger-type-1-diabetes/). Check it out.
