Health effects associated with consumption of processed meat, sugar-sweetened beverages and trans fatty acids: a Burden of Proof study
Study title... CNN title is only about meat.
A meta-analysis of observational epidemiology
All of the issues with epidemiology apply
association is not causation
hypothesis generating only
healthy user confounders
people eating meat are often eating high carbohydrate diets
metabolic context of the participants
food frequency questionnaires filled out yearly or every 4 years.
