Am I getting this right?
1. MANY studies over many years show red meat consumption is bad
2. This study shows that it's bad, but not a lot
3. This is ONE study we're talking about
4. This study invents a new statistical methodology
- tony_cannistra 4y agoUnfortunately, you don't have it quite right. This "one study" is a meta-analysis, which considers many studies. Furthermore, meta-analysis methodology is very important. Doing it wrong is bad. Working to make it better is good. They did that.
- boxed 4y agoThis isn't the first meta analysis though...
