Statistical inference applied to groups does not preclude individual exceptions to statistical probability. I’m sure you do know teetotalers who had Alzheimers but what does that have to do with alcohol abuse correlating highly with dementia? Nothing, really.

If real statistics say so...fine. I have no problem with that.

Studies have said eggs and pork are bad for you, then all of a sudden Eggs were ‘the indelible, edible egg’, and Pork was ‘the new white meat. Depends on study, and WHO did it!

Is there a link?

Thanks.
