Al Marsad newspaper: Studies have stated that eating a lot of red and processed meat increases the risk of bowel cancer.
The term processed meat refers to any meat that has been processed to add flavor or to extend its shelf life, such as sausages, salami, and bacon.
A recent study, published in the European Journal of Nutrition, found that replacing these types of meat with unprocessed meat reduces the chances of disease.
Researchers from Northumbria University found that this simple exchange leads to a significant reduction in intestinal genotoxins, which can cause bowel cancer, and increases healthy gut bacteria.
