How can any correlation be attained without even knowing what foods were consumed during the feeding window?
Why is it that the time period they ate in caused heart disease, rather than the food they ate in that time period? Increased by 91% compared to what group, the general population? Possibly the average population had a healthier diet than this group. Too many questions unanswered for this study to have any value beyond click bate considering how popular IM fasting is becoming.
I'm repeating myself, but all such studies have *limited* value, and going directly to "no value beyond clickbait" heads us to a situation in which all epidemiological work becomes the subject of partisan rancor, rather than an incremental step towards better understanding. To be frank, I don't want to live in the world you are encouraging, whether you know it or not.
