Park88 1st Gear June 17, 2011 Share June 17, 2011 Not only the processed meat are dangerous. The commercially farmed livestocks and aquaculture products are also dangerous. There is over-usage of enzymes, growth hormones and medication, including regular dosage of antibiotic, in the livestock industry. They are constantly increasing the cycle output and animal nutritionist are constantly under pressure to add new additives to the feeds or injection to promote body mass growth of the livestock. Fast mass body growth means shorter production cycle and increase profit for the farmers. Eat meats in moderation and at your own perils. Processed Meats Declared Too Dangerous for Human Consumption The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) has just completed a detailed review of more than 7,000 clinical studies covering links between diet and cancer. Its conclusion is rocking the health world with startling bluntness: Processed meats are too dangerous for human consumption. Consumers should stop buying and eating all processed meat products for the rest of their lives. Processed meats include bacon, sausage, hot dogs, sandwich meat, packaged ham, pepperoni, salami and virtually all red meat used in frozen prepared meals. They are usually manufactured with a carcinogenic ingredient known as sodium nitrite. This is used as a color fixer by meat companies to turn packaged meats a bright red color so they look fresh. Unfortunately, sodium nitrite also results in the formation of cancer-causing nitrosamines in the human body. And this leads to a sharp increase in cancer risk for those who eat them.A 2005 University of Hawaii study found that processed meats increase the risk of pancreatic cancer by 67 percent. Another study revealed that every 50 grams of processed meat consumed daily increases the risk of colorectal cancer by 50 percent. These are alarming numbers. Note that these cancer risks do not come from eating fresh, non-processed meats. They only appear in people who regularly consume processed meat products containing sodium nitrite. Sodium nitrite appears predominantly in red meat products (you won ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueray Hypersonic July 2, 2023 Share July 2, 2023 Ultra-processed food may be linked to poorer mental, physical health: Study Quote SINGAPORE – Heavy consumption of soft drinks, packaged snacks, canned meat and mass-produced bread could increase the risk of depression, according to a new study. Researchers from Deakin University’s Food and Mood Centre in Australia have discovered that indulging in ultra-processed food (UPF) likely increases the risk of depression, particularly among people whose daily diet comprises more than 30 per cent of UPF. The January study of 23,299 patients in Melbourne found that those with a higher dependence on UPF suffered increased odds of elevated psychological distress and are at an increased – by as much as 23 per cent – risk of mental illnesses. https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/ultra-processed-food-may-be-linked-to-poorer-mental-physical-health-study ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
