New Study: Grilled Meat Linked to Kidney Cancer

Ari Solomon November 11, 2015
New research highlighted
by USA Today is giving meat eaters
some serious food for thought. It reveals that grilled, barbecued, or pan-fried
meat may raise our risk of kidney cancer, which is one of the 10 most common
cancers in both men and women.
This news comes on the heels of a WHO report
that puts processed meat in the same carcinogenic category as cigarettes and
asbestos.
For years, studies have shown that meat consumption is bad
for our health. It’s been linked to diabetes, stroke, and the number one killer
in America—heart disease.
But meat isn’t just bad for people; it’s also bad
for animals
. Each year, more than 8 billion farmed animals are brutally
slaughtered just so people can eat them. They are kept in windowless sheds
where they never see sunlight or breathe fresh air, and many are forced to live
in spaces so small they can’t even turn around.

health and help stop animal abuse. Visit ChooseVeg.com
