A dietary swap that could lengthen your life? - Harvard Gazette
Briefly

A recent study by Mass General Brigham and Harvard researchers indicates that daily substitution of butter with plant-based oils can reduce premature death risk by 17%. Analyzing data from over 200,000 participants over 30 years, they found a strong correlation between increased consumption of plant-based oils, particularly soybean, canola, and olive oil, and lower mortality rates from cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Conversely, higher butter consumption linked to increased mortality risk. The research emphasizes incorporating more plant-based oils into diets can provide substantial long-term health benefits.
Substituting butter with plant-based oils daily may lower risk of premature death by up to 17 percent, according to a new study. The results point to significant health benefits.
Researchers found that higher consumption of plant-based oils like soybean, canola, and olive oil corresponds with lower mortality rates from various causes compared to butter.
