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.

I like the “thick sliced” bologna. If I don’t have time to fry it, I nuke it! ;-)

I also read that a glass of OJ per day neutralizes that problem.

Yep, that brings us back to it's best to eat/drink a variety of foods. Especially nowadays that foods aren't as nutritious as they once were due to nutrient depletion in soils and processing.

Note that it’s not just pork products being put into this category. Alcohol is in there too.

Good point.

Strengthens the argument that it is just a sneaky way to gradually implement Sharia.

Water is MORE dangerous than smoking!

(when taken in too large a quantity)

Idiots at WHO are getting on the sharia bandwagon...

I think it wasn’t the entire chain, just a franchise or two.

All the Subways around here are ME owned. I don't patronize them. Last on my 'go to' list.

Yes, it’s so deadly that the average lifespan has gone from 38 years old to now over 80 years old (Yes, I know many things are involved in life expectancy averages- however, we’re still living longer and healthier even though we eat the same shtuff we’ve been eating since pork was taken off the forbidden list)

Wine and Golf are good for you. Here’s a testimonial....
..........

Silvio, an 80-year-old Italian goes to the doctor for a check-up. The doctor is amazed at what good shape the guy is in and asks, ‘how do you stay in such great physical condition?’

I’m Italian and I am a golfer,’ says Silvio, ‘and that’s why I’m in such good shape. I’m up well before daylight and out golfing up and down the fairways.
I have a glass of vino, and all is well.’

“’Well’ says the doctor, ‘I’m sure that helps, but there’s got to be more to it. How old was your Father when he died?’

‘Who said my Father’s dead?’

The doctor is amazed. ‘You mean you’re 80 years old and your Father’s still alive. How old is he?’

‘He’s 100 years old,’ says Silvio. ‘In fact he golfed with me this morning, and then we went to the topless beach for a walk and had a little vino and that’s why he’s still alive. He’s Italian and he’s a golfer, too.’

‘Well,’ the doctor says, ‘that’s great, but I’m sure there’s more to it than that. How about your Father’s Father? How old was he when he died?’

‘Who said my Nonno’s dead?’

Stunned, the doctor asks, ‘you mean you’re 80 years old and your grandfather’s still living! Incredible, how old is he?’

‘He’s 118 years old,’ says the Old Italian golfer.

The doctor is getting frustrated at this point,
‘So, I guess he went golfing with you this morning too?’

‘No, Nonno couldn’t go this morning because he’s getting married today.’

At this point the doctor is close to losing it. ‘Getting married? Why would a 118 year- old guy want to get married?’
‘Who said he wanted to get married?”

very funny- had me laughing-

I also avoid chewing gum at all costs- I’ve witnessed a person die from eating bubble gum- they were standing In traffic unwrapping the gum and was hit by a vehicle

I’ll never touch gum again

(I joke- didn’t really witness this)

By tradition, I have a steak any time I read propaganda from the vegan pansies. I’ll go with a T-bone tonight.
