"Scientists believe a pigment found in red meat damages the DNA of cells lining the digestive system – and DNA damage is one of the first signs of cancer. Burning meat is also thought to increase the risks. In addition, some studies suggest that preservatives used in processed meat could increase risks. "

Well, what are most people eating? Meat from unhealthy, grain-fed animals, no?

I want to see a real study on healthy, grass-fed meats..

I'm not scared.. although I don't even eat much meat.

Not that it means anything to me, but here was a headline from just yesterday..

I am really starting to dislike almost any studies and reports on health. Anything can happen, find what's best for yourself.
