Obviously we don't know that it is causal. I mainly posted this because of constant "but they eat a lot of rice in Japan". Maybe, but they eat less now and they're healthier.
Would def be interesting to see if they ate less generally, ate differently, or smoked less or something.
Do you have more articles on Asian eating habits over time? Really enjoyed the last one you dug up, notwithstanding the fact that I couldn't read it haha
Guessing they ate more protein (fish, mostly) as Japan got rich.
