    A new study reveals that fertility rates can increase at high levels of human development. However, this relationship appears to have shifted after 2010.

    Not criticizing you! But the article is meatwash. Do nothing... just take a pill. Article is suggesting veggy + vegan diets are a third as effective as statins which is BS.

    91% of cardio vascular disease including heart attacks etc are removed by lifestyle changes. 80%strokes. 90% diabetes. And on.

    Statins added to blood pressure meds remove 20% to 30% CVD.

    25% only vs 91%
    Lifestyle change over 4 times more effective than statins + BP meds
    [Also an eggs fish and cheese cholesterol fest diet (what is often termed vegetarian diets) are indistinguishable from SAD diets anyway for CVD whereas on the other end of the scale approaching a WFPB vegan is vastly different in the cohort & population studies]

  9. πŸ“£ New #OpenAccess paper alert:

    "Women’s #fertility and allostatic load in the post-reproductive years: An analysis of the Indonesian Family Life Survey" is out now in #PopulationStudies.

    We show pregnancies not ending in live births associated with worse physical health in mid- to later life among women, possibly due to unsafe #abortion; or health issues/stress linked to #miscarriage.

    Joint work with T. Leone & F. Witolear.
