Study Links Processed Meat Consumption to Increased Cancer Risk

A study by EPIC indicates that increased consumption of processed meat is linked to a higher risk of stomach cancer and esophageal adenocarcinoma. The research tracked over 450,000 individuals for 14 years, finding that daily consumption of an additional 30 grams of processed meat raised cancer risks significantly. The findings align with existing classifications by the World Health Organization regarding processed meat as a carcinogen.
