Processed Meats Serious Health Threat, Says WCRF

Following a detailed review of over 7,000 clinical trials looking into links between diet and cancer, the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) recently concluded that processed meats are unacceptably dangerous for human consumption. This overly point-blank and momentous conclusion, not surprisingly, has the meat eating population in a flutter. In fact, the WCRF strongly urges everyone to quit buying and eating all processed meat products - for the rest of their lives. Processed meats like bacon and sausage that come in frozen prepared meals are typically manufactured with sodium nitrite, a carcinogenic ingredients used as a color fixer by meat companies to impart a bright red color so the products appear fresh. Unfortunately, sodium nitrite is also responsible for formation of cancer-causing nitrosamines in the human body leading to increased cancer risk. However, due to the considerable influence that big food corporations wield over U.S. government regulators, it's quite impossible to stop this dangerous practice. Still, you can protect yourself by following these valuable tips. However, your best defense is to completely discard processed meats.
