It’s not surprising that the American Diabetes Association
now advocates a vegan diet. A recent study in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that a person had

Additionally, a study by the Harvard School of Public
Health found that a daily 100-gram serving of unprocessed red meat increased the
risk of Type 2 diabetes by 19 percent. A daily 50-gram serving of processed
meat increased the risk by 51 percent. To put this into perspective, two slices
of bacon are about 50 grams. Let that sink in for a minute.
