"Smoking correlated with high rates of permanent and total relief of lung and various other cancers and maladies" This scientific finding brought to you by Phillip Morris.
- or_am_i 1y agoYes, and the press release makes no mention of this extra context -- hardly good journalism.

- jmclnx 1y agoI figured that it was supported by the cattle people. Maybe true, but my instinct says probably not true. "High Quality Diet" is the reason. Maybe the "High Quality" by itself is enough :) Plus they do not say how much meat, in very small quantities I could believe this, but eating pounds of beef a month, I really doubt it.
- anotheryou 1y agohow bad must it be if all they came up with is still just "might be positive, at least nothing bad happens"
- zoeysmithe 1y agoAlso red meat is a luxury and if you can eat it regularly that means you're doing well economically, that most likely correlates with good healthcare access and a higher level lifestyle, which very much is correlated with better mental health. This is bit like saying people with expensive cars have less cavities. That doesn't mean driving a luxury car somehow benefits your teeth, its just if you can afford a $100k car, you probably can afford regular checkups and good teeth care.
