RE: Scientific Studies into The Cancer Causing Effects of Eating Meat.

in #health6 years ago (edited)

Hey @ura-soul, this is the first time we met. First of all, I was shocked after reading this. I sat out there for about 2 minutes wondering - is it really a serious concern?

Then I moved my ass and searched over the internet to confirm what you said. And hell yeah, it turns out to be so true. It's damn true that W.H.O classified processed meats such as ham, bacon, and frankfurts as a Group 1 carcinogen which literally means that it can, later on, turn out to be a serious thing called cancer.

However, I want to add something here that I researched on my own.

Cancer council recommend us to eat 700 grams of red meat in a single week to stay on the safe side. Moreover, some research also showed that charred and burnt meat can increase the risk of cancer. How? Well, there will be the formation of heterocyclic chemicals which directly leads to an adverse impact. By the way, I love your post man. Now I am following you for more such great content. Keep the good work up! See you soon ♥

Greetings - If you watch the videos linked in the post here, you will see the advice regarding 'harm minimisation' - however, since there isn't generally speaking a need for most people to eat meat anyway - I see no reason to eat it in any amounts. Some say that it is not possible to obtain Vitamin B12 without eating dead animals - however, that is a position that denies numerous things, such as that modern farming practices cause both depletion of B12 from plant foods and also kill off B12 in animals too. Additionally, the issue is not so much the amounts of B12 involved anyway - rather it is the ability to absorb it that is the issue.. This can be improved through correct protocols.

I agree with your statement brother. There's no point in eating meat. However, for some people like this

it's just about taste where they can't resist. It's good that for such people, there's some line that they shouldn't cross. An indication that can help them to survive more on this earth ☻

Well, karma always has us moving towards balance. Those who refuse its lessons will eventually go beyond their ability to participate in life.
