If you want to live healthier, step away from these 10 foods and general food categories.

Let’s get this fan-favorite out of the way first. Bacon is not good for your health.
“Many don’t know that the World Health Organization has classified bacon in the same category as tobacco when it comes to carcinogenesis,” says Reyzan Shali, MD, referring to the process by which normal cells are transformed into cancer cells. “We have done a good job asking people to give up tobacco, but how come we have not done a good job asking people to not eat bacon?”

people have to eat...if nothing else for calories, and calories are the MAIN reason to eat, not nutrition....
nutrition is very important but the body must satisfy the calorie dept first...
the caveman looked for food to give them energy, not to make their skin and hair shiny...
Sigh. They had to include mouth watering pictures of the prohibited food.
I’ve replaced bacon with sliced pork belly grilled, broiled or pan fried. It is just as tasty as bacon, but without the processing.
And homemade sausage is better than store bought.
They're delicious.
I don’t care what can kill me. I’m not eating bugs
Same here. Our butcher can barely keep it in stock! Love it!
In true FR tradition I won’t read the article.
So are eggs good or bad this month?
