Meat and Cancer Brochure

Research demonstrates that a diet filled with red and processed meat leads to a higher chance of obtaining colorectal cancer. And although it may not seem to be the most appealing news, this isn’t baloney! A correlation has also been shown with pancreatic, stomach, and prostate cancers as well.

Meanwhile, the average American is consuming 37 ounces of red and processed meat per week when the recommended amount is only 18 ounces—putting many of our citizens at great risk.

What do we do then!? Stay away from bacon? (God forbid). Eat only vegetables? (Eww). Exercise for three hours a day? (Ain’t nobody got time for that!). On the other hand, instead of trying to completely rewire our daily schedules and eating habits in order to prevent the potential of cancer from occurring, what we as Americans need to learn is moderation. Although this may be a foreign concept in our culture, eating less red and processed meats and consuming more organic and lean meats will lessen the amount of carcinogens (cancer-causing agents) that enters our bodies, and keep us away from the potential of obtaining cancer. Our brochure aims to further educate all Americans on these concepts and to help create a change in our diets.
