Headlines are often misleading

Here's an example of a headline that seems to suggest that eating meat helps people to live to 100. 

The commenter at the bottom makes an astute observation that causation and correlation are being confused in the headline. Does eating meat cause one to live to 100? Or is it a correlated factor?

Never stop being a critical thinker!  

And anyway, that's not really the point of the article itself.
