that's incredible
oh they also found
>Obesity doesn't decrease life expectancy
delete /fit/ NOW
that study does not say what you think it does...
not only does including something in multivariate regression equal controlling for it
but they conveniently exclude education at some parts
and it's ALL ecological data, the weakest there is
you can conclude literally zero causation out of this

>Did they control for wealth?
kinda, but only on a national level (like the rest of their data)
personal wealth differences were not accounted for
in essence they correlated more "advanced" society with longer life expectancy and higher meat intake
it's still interesting
but has absolutely nothing to do with the question "is meat healthy?"
all they use are averages over whole countries
