The three major questions to always ask when getting research results
said by whom
on what basis
in the context of what
Whom: a PR person (mentions a study exists but doesn't name it)
Basis: unnamed epidemiology (weak, confounders)
Context: standard Americans diet (heavy processed foods, carbohydrates)
Epidemiology is famous for being used in junk science, it cannot inform on cause and effect only correlations - to be used as the basis falsifiable experiments. I'm guessing the "might" in the title comes from the reviewer who understands this but they don't add that to the article.
