Bacon, ham and sausages rank alongside cigarettes as a major cause of cancer, the World Health Organisation has said, placing cured and processed meats in the same category as asbestos, alcohol, arsenic and tobacco.

The report from the WHO’s International Agency for Research on Cancer said there was enough evidence to rank processed meats as group 1 carcinogens because of a causal link with bowel cancer.

It places red meat in group 2A, as “probably carcinogenic to humans”. Eating red meat is also linked to pancreatic and prostate cancer, the IARC says.

This was the top story on the local news here in Wisconsin. They interviewed the president or head or whatever of the Wisconsin Beef Council, and his response was hilariously stupid. Basically it was "well lots of things cause cancer, maybe it was their lifestyle or genetics or something. They can't say it was definitely meat"

Beef guy actually has an understanding of stats and is correct. That's why it's "linked to" instead of "causes"

If you take those figures together, eating an extra 100g of red meat per day and an extra 50g of processed meat per day will increase your risk of getting colorectal cancer from 0.042% to 0.059% (0.042 x 1.17 * 1.18), assuming these figures stack.

An article published in The Lancet in 2008 based on an NIH-AARP survey shows that lung cancer incidence is 20.3 per 100,000 in non-smoking men and 25.3 per 100,000 in non-smoking women. For people who smoke two packs a day, lung cancer incidence rises to 1,259.2 per 100,000 in men and 1,308.9 per 100,000 in women. This means that a smoking heavily increases your lung cancer incidence from 0.020%/0.025% (men/women) to 1.259%/1.309% (men/women).

This is a much more significant effect than what we see from red meats and processed meats. Put another way, eating more red meat or processed meat increases your risk of colorectal cancer by 17% and 18%, respectively. Heavy smoking increases your risk of lung cancer by more than 5,000% for women and more than 6,000% for men.

one of my neighbors growing up was a kind man who had been a submarine sailor in the US navy in WW2 and when he got colon cancer the doctors chopped up his colon and served it to him and he ate it and died

And patients can do anything they want afterward, Hyman notes. Colostomy appliances poo poo bags are clean, closed systems. People can go swimming at the pool or beach or jump in the hot tub. For extra coverage, women may opt for a one-piece swimsuit and men may decide to wear a T-shirt with their bathing suit – or not. Doctors advise avoiding situps or lifting anything heavy for several weeks after surgery. Otherwise, patients can ramp up their endurance, balance and strength by walking, jogging, yoga and other types of exercise.

By time you face the effects of even the most acute meat-induced cancers you'll probably be at the stage where a colostomy bag is more convenient anyway. Prepare now for your nitrated future.
