A paper published in Nutrition Journal investigated the link between the prevalence of ramen restaurants and stroke and heart attack mortality in Japanese prefectures.
Meanwhile, the Kinki region and southern Kanto region have low stroke mortality rates.
This stroke mortality distribution corresponded approximately with the prevalence of ramen restaurants in these regions.
“The prevalence of ramen restaurants in Japanese prefectures has a significant correlation with the stroke mortality rate,” the study concluded.
They point out that ramen consumption isn’t restricted to restaurants and they didn’t consider instant or homemade ramen at all.
