There's
good correlation between
Coronary mortality and
total fat intake, for
countries 15 to 7. For
countries 7 to 1, there's
no correlation between Coronary mortality and total fat intake, suggesting that other differences (e.g.
quality of health-care,
social stress,
antioxidant status etc) are
significant factors.

Of course, association ≠ causation.

In conclusion,
total fat intake,
animal protein intake,
sugar intake &
annual income are
all associated with
increased Coronary mortality, over a
certain range of values.
