Processed meats may increase stomach cancer risk, study saysPosted Aug 2nd 2006 4:06PM by Nick VagnoniFiled under: Science, Pork, Europe, Meat, Health & MedicalThis is the part where I plug my ears and mumble "bacon is healthy, bacon is healthy, bacon is healthy." Swedish researchers have reviewed 15 different studies and concluded that eating an extra ounce of salted or smoked meat a day can increase the risk of developing stomach cancer by 15 to 38 percent. The data comes from figures taken from over 4,000 individuals in the last 40 years, Reuters reported. The study appears in the current issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. An abstract is available here.
