'inversely associated' means people who ate more of it lived longer or the opposite? I'm hella confused

  Double negatives are hard to read but yeah more meat less chance of death.

    Isn't there like a 100% chance of death?

      > Isn't there like a 100% chance of death? Not, just 99.99999%. Clonal cell lines are basically immortal. (And the chance of death at a given age is not 100% necessarily)

      I mean only 93% of humans have died so who knows for certain.... https://www.prb.org/articles/how-many-people-have-ever-lived-on-earth/ https://www.prb.org/articles/how-many-people-have-ever-lived...

  "inverse association" is a standard way of saying that when X goes up or down, Y does the opposite.

    I have never seen mortality used to mean lifespan. I assume it is a clickbait title technique intentionally misusing words to pique interest.

      It's not being used to mean lifespan. It's being used to mean death.

      Mortality is often used when talking about the likelihood of dying.
