Question
The Framingham heart study was an observational study that went on for 20 years. The following data were produced.
[Source: adapted from Gillman et al., Margarine intake and subsequent coronary heart disease in men.
Epidemiology, 1997 Mar; 8(2): 144–9]
Which conclusion can be drawn, based on these data?
A. It is better to eat margarine than to eat butter.
B. The more margarine consumed, the greater the incidence of coronary heart disease.
C. Butter is a natural product whereas margarine is hydrogenated vegetable oil that leads to coronary heart disease.
D. Margarine causes more heart related deaths than butter.
