Subtitle: Japan’s rate of strokes fell during a period when it began eating a bit of meat Article is paywalled, but the subtitle appears to make a correlation between the consumption of meat in Japan and the decline in the rate of strokes. At face value, this seems dubious.

It seems plausible to me. A small amount of meat could fix a vitamin B12 deficiency.

  a small amount. Not the obscene amounts we eat here in America

  Not killing off the bacteria in soil that produce B12 would also help reduce B12 deficiency, a condition that is also common among meat eaters in the US.
