The ‘Science’ Is ‘Settled’: World Health Organization Says Meat Causes Cancer [Jude]
PJ Media ^ | 10/26/2015 | Michael Walsh

For now, it’s just processed meats. But you know they’re coming for that steak on your table and maybe even your Thanksgiving turkey or Christmas ham. Because fascists gotta do what fascists gotta do, and first they use “science” to get the ball rolling: Processed meats – such as bacon, sausages and ham – do cause cancer, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Its report said 50g of processed meat a day – less than two slices of bacon – increased the chance of developing colorectal cancer by 18%. Meanwhile, it said red meats were “probably carcinogenic” but there was limited evidence.

But the WHO said meat did also have health benefits. Maybe that’s why human beings have been eating meat since the expulsion from the Garden of Eden. Meanwhile: Processed meat is meat that has been modified to increase its shelf-life or alter its taste – such as by smoking, curing or adding salt or preservatives. It is these additions which could be increasing the risk of cancer. “For an individual, the risk of developing colorectal (bowel) cancer because of their consumption of processed meat remains small, but this risk increases with the amount of meat consumed,” Dr Kurt Straif from the WHO said.

Remember –if it saves just one life… unless you’re talking abortion, in which case by all means murder away...

DiHydrogen Monoxide is also highly corrosive. DiHydrogen Monoxide will dissolve more substances than any other compound.

Pretty scary stuff.

If you really want to end all the pain, its dinitrogen monoxide.

Wasn’t there a story recently about some person over a hundred who ate bacon every day?

And yet we continue to gulp down the most toxic, most corrosive element known to man — oxygen. You can look it up. Bam!

We have known since the 1960s that the nitrates added to the meat are carcinogenic, the meat itself, not so much. Attacking animal agriculture as a cause of cancer says WHO while saying little about the big 3—smoking, alcohol, and obesity. Latest research in a high profile journal with excellent credibility shows that 2/3 of all cancers are simply spontaneous events, the luck of the draw.

>> Dihydrogen Monoxide is the one that scares me the most.

That’s why I NEVER eat food made from chemicals.

Dihydrogen Monoxide is the one that scares me the most. If Americans knew the facts about this lethal chemical, I am certain it would be banned in all 50 states. It is one of the primary ingredients in virtually ALL pesticides and herbicides and a study was conducted showing that EVERY known serial killer in American history was exposed to dihydrogen monoxide as a youth.

True, and it is often used as a substitute for natural fruit juices, as well as a filler in meats, while at high levels it has also caused millions of deaths. It has also been implicated in the demise of the dinosaurs.

However, it will not be found at all in Hell, where it is considered a priceless commodity.

And that part is no joke.

DiHydrogen Monoxide is deadly. It kills people. It takes only a very small amount. Some of us are immune to Di-Hydrogen Monoxide. I have been known to consume as much as a gallon a day at times. It oxidizes steel. Fish swim in it...and then they die.

Breathing causes death. One hundred percent of all dead people spent a life time breathing, and look what it got them.

Ask W.C. Fields why he doesn't consume DiHydrogen Monoxide.

If, as I heard on TV about 2 hours ago, this is a correlation and not a causation, then we’re saying that people who eat processed meat are more likely to get cancer.

But people who eat processed meat might also be more likely to do any number of other things, and it might be one of those other things that causes cancer.

IIRC, the correlation was about .18. If that’s true, then it’s not that strong as a correlation.
