  • None of this is certain

    This is a statistical study, so it’s not meant to be. Nobody in the field expects it to be because it’s measuring relative risk to guide decisions.

    No part of the article does that. If you’re only reading clickbait titles, you’re doing it wrong. Quite the contrary, it’s fully transparent and reasonable in its purpose.

    No part of the article suggests that, and directly states the possible explanation is a change in eating habits.
