I follow Fuhrman (https://www.drfuhrman.com), McDougall (https://www.drmcdougall.com) and Greger. What gets me is some of these guys start selling supplements and "health programs" to supplement their income.. A necessary evil I guess.
Dr Greger has a website that has a ton of vid's all backed up by science... Real medical science using double blind placebo controlled studies done in university medical centers.
He posts the documentation to back it up. Real good stuff. https://nutritionfacts.org

Changing peoples minds it tough even with the science staring them in the face. Leading a horse to water kinda thing.
I have a long time buddy that is racked with diabetes, gout and heart disease you name it. Two heart attacks and he HATES veg. His idea of a vegetable is french fries. He would eat steak and potatoes with a coke chaser every day if he could.. He's a rabid conservative too.. Hummm.
