The last 5-10 years of my life where I may very well be too old and brittle to do any of the things I love anymore, see the people I love get sick and possibly die, live a life of sedentary reminiscing.. Or bacon.

..
Bacon it is.

I find the conclusions of the study to far overshoot the possible scope of the findings, and I think this is a perfect example of how a lot of public health experts are pretty much full of shit. More so than anything else, this study shows that eating red meat and living unhealthy lives happen together quite frequently, hence the higher mortality rate. So, given a proficient sense of self control and an understanding of basic nutrition, consuming red meat is absolutely fine.

Death it is then.
Also what is the mortality rate without the increase from eating bacon? Because if it doesn't say that then this is effectively useless. 20% of 1 is .2, 20% of 100 is 20, it helps to know which one we're dealing with.

So as I understand it, eating nuts provides you with a -6% chance of mortality, ergo, immortality? (with increasing life mind you)

Better start eating more nuts.

They had to do a study to realize that eating greasy, fat-laden, food increases mortality. What a waste of time. As if anyone though that eating bacon increased life-expectancy. What buffoonery. Maybe they need to do a study to see if eating two servings of cheesecake a day increases mortality rates.
Thank you bureaucrats for all your hard work, your commitment to public service and public good is essential to the lives of so many. Also, for Pete's sake can we please get some gun control already, no need for hand guns and assault rifles for the public

"Choosing poultry over red meat was linked with a 14% lower risk of dying."

I think you may want to check your numbers there


My own personal studies show that 100% of people who eats poultry die.

But really, now I haven´t made the effort to find the study and read it, but it sounds like an epidemiological study. And saying that such a study is the nail in the coffin is a bit of a stretch. So people who eat hot dogs and bacon more often live more unhealthily, I'm not surprised.

Im surprised there has been no mention of epic meal time.

Anyway, that won't change my habits of bacon strips and bacon strips and bacon strips and bacon strips...

In another study I read they found out that most vegetables are detrimental to human health because some of the fibers can not be processed and get stuck in the intestines, leading to intestinal cancer and such.
And chickens full of deadly bacteria ofcourse.

All food is dangerous if you exclusively eat that, just make sure you don't only eat red meat and you should be fine.

And removing toxins from your system is mainly a case of exersize, we have our livers for a reason, as long we don't drown them in alcohol or such they should keep our bodies clean from whatever bullshit they found in red meat this time, as the article never made a mention of what process this is all going by.

contributes substantially to premature death


It's a little off topic, but whenever I've heard something like this I wonder when a 'mature' death is supposed to be? What does it mean to die specifically of 'natural causes'?

Also, bacon > life

Bacon as a veggie?



Better switch to chicken, so I'm less likely to die!
