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.

Amazing isn’t it that these deadly foods all come from the same source? WHO advocating for ISLAM? Well screw the WHO and their Bolshevik pronouncements! I buy this as much as the BS trans fats, cholesterol, coffee proclamations. I say eat more pig, offend more muslins as a way to start off each day twice as happy!

My personal theory is that the more we pollute our bodies, the more hostile the environment is for nasty things like cancer to take hold. So far that approach seems to be working, while my friends/family who have always lived “healthy” lifestyles have been the first to get serious illnesses.

Good bye cruel world...

This is wrong. 100% of us will eventually die . . . of heart failure. We die when our hearts stop. Whatever the cause, when our hearts stop beating, we dead! Guaranteed.

My Sierra Club remark was in response to this comment..

Islam controlled World Health Organization ?

I was being lazy, and didn't want to do the html tags and the cut and paste. Yes, just stuck out there w/ no context, it sounds wacky.

the ones I like are the fitness buffs who run miles every week, eat oats and nuts and exercise regularly then drop dead of a heart attack while reading a paper.

Yep, there was an Olympic athlete in the 70s and an Air Force general who were in that bunch of eating nuts, berries, and fitness advocacy who dropped dead of a heart attack, each while running.

If you think you have prostate cancer, it is good advice to eliminate any animal protein.

That's interesting. I am being treated for metastatic prostate cancer at MD Anderson, the top-ranked cancer center in the world and my doctor has made no mention of this. Did say to limit red meat, but never said to not eat animal protein; and my urologist there is just about the best in the country. In reality, going to a low carb diet is much more beneficial for prostate cancer patients.

Mine is to pray Gods blessings on the food before we eat...and fully enjoy what he's given us thereafter.

My personal favorite processed meat is Genoa salami.

It’s a good thing that it’s so expensive; otherwise, I would be having Genoa salami and sliced tomato on Italian bread for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day. lol
