Red Or Processed Meat

Grilled red meat is famously responsible for releasing heterocyclic aromatic amines. They add to its taste but are proven carcinogens in cancer etiology. Processed meat like hot dogs doesn’t contain any of the actual food’s original chemical and molecular structure.

A healthier option would be to boil or bake red meat. For processed meats such as smoked ham, bacon, and sausages to stay fresh, producers “freeze” them with chemicals such as sodium nitrates, which eventually make them bad for your health.

Plus, processed meats also contain excessive amounts of salt, which is also bad for your health. A 2008 study published in the Journal Nutrition and Cancer suggests that eating processed meats might be involved in the cause of colorectal cancer.

You must also avoid excessive intake of red meat since it can lead to multiple risks of colon and prostate cancer. If you want to prevent those harmful effects of processed meats, substitute it with lean meat and cook your own food whenever possible.
