Eating meat and living to 82 > not eating meat and living to 85.

Where did you find the numbers 82 and 85?

[/ QUOTE ]

nowhere, just a general observation

[/ QUOTE ]

lol a general observation of what? Have you observed a large amount of people both who have frequently eaten red meat and who have not done so and seen that one set has died at an average age of 82 and another at 85?

Or, by "general observation," did you mean that you just made those numbers up so you could pretend cancer doesn't exist or won't have any significant effect on you so you can continue living how you want?

I posted a bunch of links about this in bruisers thread. The difference is about a decade.

I saw those, thanks. According to this article (which could well be wrong), the results of the large-scale trial it's talking about weren't released until yesterday.

I know. Still this isn't really grounbreaking news. People have just studying this for a while. The "low meat" movement is just gaining momentum which sucks because I love cow.

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

[/ QUOTE ]

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.
