WHO: Processed Meat Linked to Cancer; Red Meat Is Risky, Too
Hot dogs, bacon, cold cuts and other
processed meats raise the risk of colon, stomach and other cancers, and
red meat probably contributes to the disease, too, the World Health
Organization said Monday, throwing its considerable authority behind
what many doctors have been warning for years.
WHO's
cancer agency analyzed decades of research on the subject and issued
its most definitive statement yet, putting processed meats in the same
danger category as smoking or asbestos, though that doesn't mean, say,
salami is as bad as cigarettes.
