10/31/2007: "Processed meat causes more cancer than smoking"

The World Cancer Research Fund study found strong evidence that eating red meat and processed meats such as pastrami, salami, and frankfurters can cause bowel cancer.

It also found a direct link between obesity and alcohol intake and the likelihood of falling victim to cancer.

"With smoking, we know that if you smoke you increase your risk, but most smokers in the end don't get cancer, so it's not a one-to-one relation," study author Sir Michael Marmot explained.

[ But processed, anti-biotic stuffed, hormone-fed, prion-nourished meat is cheaper and so makes higher profits. We don't want enough, we want more, when earning money's the issue. ]
