linoleic acid is the leading cause of blindness in the United States That's How Strong the evidence is there

The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

in this paper we've taken um data from um 20 Nations and we plotted that versus seed oil because average seed oil consumption for a period of 25 or more years so if we didn't have 25 or more years data we weren't plotting those two together and this is in the book um but but anyway and then and then we analyze that data to look at you know the correlation and using the r Pearson correlation coefficient the the number is 0.78
there are more countries where there's more age-related macular degeneration than you would expect rather than countries where there's less age-related macular degeneration for any given amount of polyunsaturated fat consumption
so we have a paper that's that's slated to be published I hope um and uh another paper and in this paper we've taken um data from um 20 Nations and we plotted that versus seed oil because average seed oil consumption for a period of 25 or more years so if we didn't have 25 or more years data we weren't plotting those two together and this is in the book um but but anyway and then and then we analyze that data to look at you know the correlation and using the r Pearson correlation coefficient the the the number is 0.78 so that's a very high correlation between vegetable oil consumption and macro degeneration
the Pearson correlation coefficient is 0.78 which is a pretty strong correlated correlation
