WHO says processed meat causes cancer

WASHINGTON, DC — The American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR), the nation’s leading cancer research organization focusing on the role of diet, weight and physical activity on cancer risk and survival, welcomes a new report from the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). Today’s report supports AICR’s analysis of the research on red and processed meat’s role in increasing colorectal cancer risk.

The new IARC report places processed meats (hot dogs, bacon, ham, sausage, cold cuts) in Group 1: Carcinogenic to Humans, the same category as cigarettes. Red meat (beef, pork, lamb) is assigned to Group 2A: Probably Carcinogenic to Humans.

AICR strongly supports the International Agency for Research on Cancer's report classifying red and processed meats as carcinogens, and we hope it will spread the message that what we eat plays a role in cancer risk.

If loving steak is wrong, I don't wanna be right!

Cancer means disease....we will all eventually die of a disease. So don't listen to these bundle of stickss. Eat what you love and love what you eat. A happy life is better than a longer miserable one.

WHO?

Sounds like it's the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer that's saying it.

I've never heard about red meat causing cancer. On the other hand I wouldn't rely on much from WHO either.

But to be fair, you pretty consistently ignore science.

I don't find eating healthy leads to misery. Your taste buds change if you eat healthy. Then junk food or over processed food tastes bland. Besides, I feel better, look better and have more energy.
Food alone doesn't make for a happy life anyway.

Do you think obesity and the epidemic of Diabetes Type 2 makes anyone happy?

That's precisely what I am getting at...if that's what you love to do then do it. Be happy, don't let someone else make you feel guilty about how you're living your life.
