Higher plant fat intake associated with higher deaths – Zoë Harcombe

Posted on by admin


Executive summary

* We’re looking at another population study this week, but there were some novel aspects to this one.

* A study of over 400,000 American retired people claimed that higher plant fat intake was associated with lower cardiovascular disease (CVD) deaths and lower deaths from any cause.

* The raw data found the exact opposite – higher plant fat intake was associated with higher deaths (from CVD and any cause).

* Those with the highest plant fat intake at baseline were the least healthy – higher BMI, diabetes, smoking, drinking etc.
