Bacon, ham and sausages 'as big a cancer threat as smoking', WHO to warn
The Telegraph - UK ^ | 23 Oct 2015 | Agency

Posted on 10/23/2015 8:04:20 AM PDT by amorphous

The World Health Organisation (WHO) will publish a report on Monday on the dangers of eating processed meats.

It is expected to list processed meat as a cancer-causing substance, while fresh red meat is also expected to be regarded as bad for health, the Daily Mail said.

The classifications, by the WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer, are believed to regard processed meat as "carcinogenic to humans", the highest of five possible rankings, shared with alcohol, asbestos, arsenic and cigarettes.

Maybe BBQ pork and pork chops are still OK.

I like the idea that you should eat a variety of foods in moderation.

I think that's the trick aw well. It's also smart to research foods. For instance fresh pork sausage (not the kind with preservatives) is very low in cholesterol. And I'm pretty sure our bodies needs at least some cholesterol.

A variety of foods - especially with an emphasis on vegetables, fruits, and nuts - is key, along with proper exercise of course.

How long until the demonization of “second-hand bacon” begins?

“This should not be dismissed so lightly. A very large scale experiment has validated this concern. During the civil war the Union Army was fed meat that consisted almost entirely of pork products - lots of bacon and smoked pork. Since then, EVERY SINGLE SOLDIER THAT WAS FED THIS WAY HAS DIED. Not a single one has survived.”

Abraham Lincoln said in a tweet that it wasn’t true and no one should pay attention to what they read on the internet.

I’m sure the fact that they are all made from pork has nothing to do with this pronouncement.

It is also true that EVERYONE who eats carrots has either died or will die. Sad but true.

I just saw a report within the last two weeks that eating meat (red meat) was ‘good’ for you.

Bottom line, I like bacon. I’m eating bacon. I like sausage. I’m eating sausage.

Yes, like everyone else who eats ANY food, including carrots, bacon & sausage, I will die .... but I’m going to die happy.

Same bullshit they were preaching about meat, bacon, eggs, sugar, etc back in 1975; 40 years ago nitrites in bacon, carcinogens in barbecued meats, cholesterol in eggs, etc. Before that it was fluoride in water.

Crap studies, one and all, disproved multiple times.

Funny how they zero in on non-halal meats.

Your tax dollars at work, paying the parasite busy bodies at the UN to tell you what to eat. Why aren’t they back in their own turd-world countries, where the majority of citizens would just like to eat something?
