'New research links meat with cancer' is de kop boven een artikel van MSNBC. 'People who eat a meat-laden diet have more than triple the average risk of esophageal cancer and double the risk of stomach cancer, while people who eat a lot of dairy products had double the risk of both, researchers reported Thursday [201201].
THE REPORT, to be published in the January issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, adds to several studies that link eating meat, especially red meat, with certain cancers. Colon cancer has been most strongly linked with a high-meat diet. A study of people living in Nebraska found that those who ate the most meat had 3.6 times the risk of esophageal cancer and double the risk of stomach cancer when compared with people eating what the researchers considered a healthy diet. Mary Ward, Honglei Chen and colleagues at the National Cancer Institute, Tufts University in Boston and elsewhere surveyed 124 people with stomach cancer, 124 people with esophageal cancer and 449 people who did not have cancer.
[...]
They said 33 percent of stomach cancer patients and 35 percent of esophageal cancer patients ate either the high-meat or high-milk diets.'
