"While Ms Morano had been increasingly spending more time sleeping and less time speaking in recent weeks, she had eaten her daily raw eggs and biscuits that day"

"She defied health advice, Dr Bava said on Saturday. Some doctors had warned her against eating three eggs daily, which she did for years, but she ignored their advice"

Obviously the eggs killed her. She'd been warned :emoji_spy::emoji_thinking:

Let's look at the evidence. :writer:

- She ate 3 eggs per day.
- She eventually died.

Sounds like a classic case of cholesterol poisoning! Case closed. :cool

Afraid not. See there are actually two possible cases in our analysis. It might have been the eggs, and it might not have been the eggs. That's a 50% 50% chance. Not statistically significant. Knowledge is relative and the world is an illusion. We thus conclude with a 95% confidence level that she just had good genes and got lucky. Our findings offer insights and hold promise for anti-aging, materials science, oceanography, and world hunger, and we strongly deserve to have our grant confirmed for another 5 years.

She was obviously obsessed with consuming eggs because she couldn't find a man to give her own eggs to

Doctors had been giving diet advice to a woman over 100 years old?!
