About the study (these details aren’t included in the client/patient-friendly Scoop, it’s for your info as a research-based health professional):
- This study is part of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study.
- Researchers wanted to look for “co-benefits” of both nutritional health and environmental health standards in a more holistic way. This includes the impacts of shifting toward diets that are more sustainable that can “improve population and planetary health.”
- The researchers followed 443,991 participants for about 14 years (these big numbers make this a strong study), asking them to report what they ate. They also cross-checked the participants’ medical records for cancer diagnoses, other diseases, and death. Then, they took the reported food intake, split them into 4 groups (“quartiles” based on how closely they ate compared to the EAT-Lancet diet), and estimated the greenhouse gas emissions and land use for each quartile. They looked at all of these numbers and estimated impacts to health and the environment if more people ate a diet that was closer to the EAT-Lancet diet.
- They found that, if people ate an EAT-Lancet diet over 20 years, “all-cause mortality and all cancers could be substantially reduced, together with reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and land use.”
- Conclusion: “Our results indicate that shifts towards universally sustainable diets could lead to co-benefits, such as minimising diet-related greenhouse gas emissions and land use, reducing the environmental footprint, aiding in climate change mitigation, and improving population health.”
- Every study has limitations (there is no single perfect study, so see the study strength I noted in the last bullet below), that’s why I give more weight to stronger studies, and more weight to evidence that is independently corroborated in multiple strong studies. For this study, the participants reported their own food intake, which makes it easier to get information from hundreds of thousands of people (good!), but it isn’t the most accurate measure of real food intake for each individual person (not so good!). This study was done in several countries in Europe, so that means the greenhouse gas and land use estimates are likely more accurate for European food than the would be elsewhere. Also, this study didn’t take into account the entire food system, so future studies could look in more detail at the processes, infrastructure, institutions, waste, etc. when it comes to the environmental impact of food, including the impacts of production, processing, distribution, preparation, and consumption of food. Another thing to consider is that there are important factors that go into how people choose the foods they do (e.g., social, ethical, economic, cultural, and food safety) and these weren’t included in this particular study. There are other environmental impacts that weren’t included (e.g., water use, acidification, loss of biodiversity, etc.). Despite all of these, this study included hundreds of thousands of people and lasted 14 years, and that’s what makes it a pretty strong study. More research is always recommended to dive even deeper into these issues and answer additional questions. 😀
- Because this was an observational study, we can’t say that eating closer to an EAT-Lancet diet “prevents” death and cancer, just that it appears to reduce risk or it’s associated with a lower risk over time (correlation does not equal causation). Here’s a blog post I wrote on this concept: https://leesaklich.com/health-research/correlation-does-not-equal-causation/
- Study strength: 5/7 according to this chart (this is a prospective cohort study): https://www.compoundchem.com/2015/04/09/scientific-evidence/
