observer Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Seems the latest "no no" is processed meat - as it causes bowl cancer. So I guess it's a ban on spam butties in enclosed public spaces then?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Kennedy Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 I think it is all a question of eating and drinking in moderation, and having a varied and balanced diet.....together with some moderate exercise. PS I will be having a smoked bacon bap with some ketchup on in an hour or so before I go out, to keep me going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inky pete Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Another load of rubbish from a pseudo-scientific charity. Their claim is that we should all stop eating all processed, smoked or cured meats because the processing MAY introduce chemicals which are SIMILAR to some which are in turn SUSPECTED of being carcinogenic if a human is exposed to them in large enough quantities. On the other hand they are completely ignoring the fact that the Mediterranean diet, which is widely considered to be one of the healthiest and least cancer causing in the world, contains a high proportion of smoked meats, sausages, cured hams, salamis etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted August 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Guess your right Inky; but these pseudo-scientists never stop - they'e turning us into paranoid hypocondriacs, with a belief that (if you do the right things) you can live for ever. There's only one thing certain in life - that you will die, and the timing is a lottery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
