>>13622184"The U.S. study, sponsored by the American Cancer Society, added important information about the effects of long-term meat consumption. The subjects were 148,610 people between the ages of 50 and 74. Each person reported on his or her dietary patterns and health habits when the study began in 1982 and again, 10 to 11 years later. A high consumption of red and processed meats at both dates was linked with a substantial increase in the risk of cancer in the lower colon and rectum. Conversely, the long-term consumption of large amounts of fish and poultry appeared protective.
These two studies are impressive, and they don't stand alone. A meta-analysis of 29 studies of meat consumption and colon cancer concluded that a high consumption of red meat increases risk by 28%, and a high consumption of processed meat increases risk by 20%."
I'm not a nutritionist nor am I an epidemiologist, so I will not be doing my own research on the subject. I don't believe that I'm reaching very far to assume you aren't either. I will be trusting those who actually perform the studies, though, as they would trust me in studies on piezoelectricity--they don't have to be physicists to take my word on the findings.
And just so you know, reading articles from OAN and
worldtruth.org doesn't count as doing your own research.
