Given that this study was made in Brazil, I can't not imagine the social consequences of not eating meat (exclusion from barbeques, etc) and how those also affect mental wellbeing.

I would love a cross-culture study of this, especially with India or Japan.

Properly designed studies for food need to be done in every single population to determine what genetic lineage differences there may be.

More of a curiosity given how different it is culturally and culinarily. Obesity is socially shumed more, which I'd imagine correlates negatively to health issues from a vegetarian carb-rich diet.
