Red meat, Processed meat, and Cancer risk

What the Study Says - A podcast by Dr. Study

For years, scientists have been studying how the foods we eat might affect our chances of getting cancer. A major area of focus has been on red and processed meats. Research around the world has looked closely at how much of these meats people eat and whether it changes their risk for certain types of cancer. Studies examine the connection between eating different amounts of red and processed meat and the likelihood of developing various cancers. These include well-known ones like colorectal cancer, as well as cancers affecting the stomach, esophagus, breast, and pancreas. Researchers often compare people who eat the most meat to those who eat the least. To understand this link better, scientists carefully account for other things that could influence cancer risk, such as age, gender, weight, smoking, drinking alcohol, how active someone is, their education level, and what else is in their diet, like fruits and vegetables. This helps provide a clearer picture of the relationship between diet and cancer prevention efforts.
