Big bank’s $10b profit snubs millions + Sour reaction to sweetener study

Thursday Headlines: The coalition has slammed Anthony Albanese for his decision to recognise a state of Palestine, Commonwealth Bank urged to repay fees of 2 million low-income customers after recording $10b profit, Netflix star Matt Wright’s trial will hear from more witnesses today, young men Australia's biggest phone addicts, and an Aussie teen chasing his NFL dream has gone viral for a tearful homesick message.

Deep Dive: A new study that suggests artificial sweeteners increase your risk of diabetes has received criticism online, despite being carried out by one of the country’s top experts.

Critics argue it doesn’t meet the medical research gold standard, while media coverage lacked important context and nuance.

So how do us regular folk tell scientific fact from fiction, when even the experts can’t seem to agree?

On this episode of The Briefing, Tara Cassidy speaks with Dr Evangeline Mantizioris, Director of Nutrition and Food Sciences at the University of South Australia, about what makes a study credible, and how to treat such research when making decisions about your own health.
