IARC announces red & processed meat cause cancer
[quote]Red meat
After thoroughly reviewing the accumulated scientific literature, a Working Group of 22 experts from 10 countries convened by the IARC Monographs Programme classified the consumption of red meat as probably carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A), based on limited evidence that the consumption of red meat causes cancer in humans and strong mechanistic evidence supporting a carcinogenic effect.
This association was observed mainly for colorectal cancer, but associations were also seen for pancreatic cancer and prostate cancer.
Processed meat
Processed meat was classified as carcinogenic to humans (Group 1), based on sufficient evidence in humans that the consumption of processed meat causes colorectal cancer.[/quote]
[quote]The experts concluded that each 50 gram portion of processed meat eaten daily increases the risk of colorectal cancer by 18%.[/quote]

WHO and PETA have been all over [url=https://twitter.com/peta/status/658842554616578048]this[/url], as expected, however I feel like there may be overlooked factors in this, such as the feed used to raised the animals. The fact that this article does not specify exactly what is causing the cancer, such as nitrates or something, is troubling. Could be a correlation that is being made out to be a causation, I'm not sure, and I could just be speculative because I love me some red meat.
Here's the original lancet journal: http://www.thelancet.com/pdfs/journals/lanonc/PIIS1470-2045(15)00444-1.pdf

1 回复More people who drink water will become serial killers than people who don't drink water. Therefore, water makes people into serial killers. #banwater2016 [spoiler]This is the same logic. Seems idiotic. Correlation =/= Cause and effect. Most people learned that in what? 5th grade?[/spoiler]

Honestly, if the diabetes doesn't kill me, and I survive the probable heart attack, I'll probably die from cancer anyways. I'm not going to stop eating that delicious steak dinner just because I'm going to die in 40+ years. That's going to happen anyways.

1 回复You know, at this point I just assume everything you can possibly do causes cancer without moderation. Keeps everything well balanced under the false pretense of "Don't do that too much, you'll get cancer."

1 回复As any scientist worth anything will tell you: "Correlation does NOT equal causation." Most likely there is something in the meat that is highly carcinogenic. That something can get there from a variety of ways: how the animal was raised, what it was fed, it's stress levels, how the meat was extracted, how the meat was prepared, how the meat was preserved, how the meat was cooked are all a few options from where then carcinogen may have appeared. My personal opinion is that how livestock is raised has a significant impact on how carcinogenic their meat is. This is easily testable as well. Any organization trying to spin in this to their advantage is really at fault. Their focus should be on making the population more aware and vigilant of their own bodies. Early detection and prevention does wonders from saving you from any disease. PETA is only right in advocating for the better treatment of livestock animals. Livestock is raised in horrific ways nowadays, often time with the person raising the livestock having no option due to corporate rules/lobbying/set up. It is rather dreary. The best we can do as consumers is be smart shoppers and make informed purchases. Don't stop eating meat. We're predators, we didn't evolve front facing high fidelity colour binocular vision to look good; we evolved it to hunt other animals and eat them.

6 回复Its bullshiiit. It is merely a push to drive beef prices through the roof and reduce farming costs... 80% of the worlds grains are used to produce livestock feed. By their rationale it is the feed that makes meat carcinogenic. So all the -blam!-ing vegans are also getting cancer. Humans are omnivores. Tigers eat vegans.
