Researchers looked at nearly 4,500 adults and found that cat ownership was related to a 40% lower risk of suffering a fatal heart attack.

Maybe it's the toxoplasmosis.

Parasites like to keep their hosts alive...

Thanks for sharing your blog. I've read Taubes and it has changed my way of looking at food.

Maybe it's related to catattractiveosis, which, as I have already hypothesized, is caused by keeping a steady supply of tasty morsels cats like. So people who stock up on tasty meats, poultry, and seafood have a lower risk of heart attack AND a higher Cat Attraction Index.

Maybe we should dump the Glycemic Index and replace it with the CAI.

(The health benefits of carnivory might, however, be counterbalanced by the stress of always trying to keep a determined cat off the counter when one is preparing dinner. Bad kitty!)
