They lose me right off the bat when they compare it to the “benefits” of the Mediterranean diet. I don’t think there is any value at all in restricting red meat and fat intake.
Anyway, I suspect that even if the correlation is causation, it’s not clear that it will work for everyone. If coffee has no discernible effect on me (which it doesn’t) other than making me brush my teeth more to get rid of the foul aftertaste, then it seems unlikely that I will derive any health benefits from choking the swill down.
I wonder if this is Olive Garden policy, or just that restaurant?
Anyway, I’m sure that the same people who demand that we agree with their mental infirmities also demand “trigger warnings” if we’re going to say something they’ll disagree with.
