No amount of alcohol, sausage or bacon is safe according to a new global blueprint on how to beat cancer.

Even small amounts of processed meats and booze increase the risk of a host of cancers outlined in World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) guidelines updated every decade.

The respected global authority has unveiled a 10-point plan to cut your risk of getting cancer by up to 40%.

Brits have been told to banish favourites such as ham, burgers and hot dogs from their diets by experts who say they are a direct cause of bowel cancer.

Processed meats also cause people to be overweight which can trigger many more cancers.

Try a Bloody Mary with a crisp strip of thick bacon as a garnish.

My grandma, too. Married into a German farm family. They raised a lot of hogs and ate everything but the squeal. As a little girl, my mom’s job on butchering day was to pick blood vessels out of the pig brains before they were fried up. Can you imagine — cholesterol, breaded and deep-fried. Grandma started drinking black coffee almost before she could walk. Died young at 97.

It is possible her living to 97 was from eating organ meat.

But I hope not, because it sounds revolting.

Piffle.

My parents lived into their 90’s on a diet of lard, eggs, butter, ham and cured meats. They also drank beer and in mum’s case, vodka.

What is killing people is additives and chemicals along with plasticizers, junk food and bad diets. Too much fructose and corn sugars in everything and little to no physical activity. GIGO.

I must admit that I have not had chocolate with sea salt.

Its fake news. The research is bullshit. It is entirely based on statistical correlation which has given us nothing but stupid recommendations for half a century.

“Brits have been told to banish favourites such as ham, burgers and hot dogs from their diets by experts who say they are a direct cause of bowel cancer. “

In my own family, from parents to children, the rate has been one out of ten - with parents deceased without it, and seven of eight children still living at 60+ without it. One has had successful surgery for it, and continues to eat those foods, now at 77+, with no recurrence. One out of ten, or ten percent does not sound like “most”, yet the U.K. guidance is for everyone to quit those foods.

Life is a chance, no matter what you do and when it’s your time it’s your time and meanwhile it is logical to play the odds and not always think the worst of everything.

I think before too long they will do genetic studies and reduce their guidance from a warning for everyone to a warning for a much smaller population set with genetic markers related to digestion and the digestive tract representing greater vulnerability for bowel diseases. Then genetic tests at a very young age can provide a more meaningful warning, when warranted.

I seem to recall that the group reporting this left actual science behind a long time ago and now relies mostly on pseudo junk research for their findings.

As a little girl, my mom’s job on butchering day was to pick blood vessels out of the pig brains before they were fried up.

My mom grew up in a little rural town that was overwhelmingly Czech immigrants or first-generation American children of same, and I think those vessels were one of the delicacies she recalls being squeamish about (along with headcheese and pickled chicken feet).

My 99-yo grandmother was a widow whose husband passed away in his 50s; he probably ate little different than she did but I think we have genetic predispositions for susceptibility. Still, it just seems like when I was little, there were a LOT of old people (really old, not just my perception of them) who ate the sausage, the bacon, the lard, etc and washed it down with plenty of alcohol, yet they somehow survived. One of our neighbors smoked cigarettes into his late 80s and would probably have smoked into his 90s if he hadn't fallen off a roof while laying shingles and gotten an infection in the hospital. I guess if tetanus, rupture and being thrown from a horse (or a roof!) didn't get you, you stood a good chance of hanging around despite what "settled science" thought/thinks.
