Epidemiology, for or against, cannot prove causation, it can only suggest areas for further research. Be wary of anyone making conclusions from observational associations. If you see Causes/Bad/Shown to be/Unhealthy/Healthy/Science Says/Proven in association with a epidemiology paper or article, you can seriously question the scientific literacy of the author/writer.
