Why we cite it
The 15-year follow-up of the Seven Countries Study: across 15 cohorts, death rates were ”related positively to average percentage of dietary energy from saturated fatty acids, negatively to dietary energy percentage from monounsaturated fatty acids”, and ”All-cause and coronary heart disease death rates were low in cohorts with olive oil as the main fat”. The authors close: ”Causal relationships are not claimed”.
