Daily consumption of red meat (pork, pork, sheep) and minced meat may increase the likelihood of intestinal cancer. Researchers at Oxford University found this.
The study was conducted for 6 years. For this purpose, the experts collected data from 500,000 patients. During the study, bowel cancer was recorded in 2 609 cases between 40-69 years of age.
The research found that the risk of developing cancer was 20 percent higher in people who consumed red and processed meat at 76 grams a day compared with 21 grams or less per day.
Also, according to consumers of 8 grams, the risk of cancer is 15 per cent more than 54 grams of red meat per day.
Those who consume 29 grams of processed meat a day are estimated to have a 19% higher risk of illness than those who consume 5 grams a day.
