Reply to comment by Wagamaga in Inadequate pollination has led to a 3-5% loss of fruit, vegetable, and nut production and an estimated 427,000 excess deaths annually from lost healthy food consumption and associated diseases, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and certain cancers by Wagamaga

How does the lack of pollination directly correlate to the reduced consumption of healthy foods and the rise in disease? There are a hell of a lot of confounding factors for both consumption and disease prevalence.

My assumption is they are implying less access to healthy produce because of less production.
