Default Re: So red meat actually does increase the chance of cancer...

am i the only one who thinks the words "Big Study" make the study look less credible (although obviously it's credible)?

No, I can't believe they'd have such a pathetic headline in such a widely-circulated, mainstream newspaper.

Those who eat two portions a day - equivalent to a bacon sandwich and a fillet steak - increase their risk of bowel cancer by 35% over those who eat just one portion a week

Hmmmmm, comparing two servings A DAY to 1 serving A WEEK, seems like to fairly extreme ends of the spectrum.

The key phrase, as always, is all good things in moderation and pass the steak.

Increases risk of cancer... Reduces risk of living your life as a pasty-faced, emaciated little vegan freak. And it tastes soooo good.
