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.

people are looking at you know vegetarians are taking in lower amounts of protein and they're all cause mortality and they're cancer mortality and they just study after study after study and they have a lower all-cause mortality lower cancer mortality but but only in those individuals who are not obese not sedentary sorry are sedentary are smoking or you know they had some unhealthy lifestyle Factor so in other words the people taking in higher protein animal protein uh who were basically healthy had a similar cancer-related mortality all-cause mortality as these vegetarians
However, when you start to look at the largest observational studies that have been done, those studies that have looked for any like unhealthy lifestyle factors or confounding factors have found that, oh, actually, people that have no unhealthy lifestyle factors, so they're not obese, not sedentary, not smoking, not excessively drinking alcohol, they have a similar all-cause mortality as a plant-eating person.
