According to the leaks it says eating more than 75g daily is bad. I'd say I eat that per meal. Will this effect your eating? http://www.bbc.com/news/health-34615621 | ||

I accept I am going to die and want to enjoy my life doing and eating what I can. I have no wish to be 80-100yrs old slowly watching myself die whilst doctors try everything under the sun to keep me alive whilst claiming I'm too old to have the mental capacity to decide what's best for my health and when enough is enough. I think most of the news/information recently about meat,eggs,five a day etc is all because there are far too many people living on the planet now (almost 7.5 billion) and the W.H.O and all governments know this and are getting worried about managing to feed and ever growing population. Added to the reason for promoting not eating red meat is because most livestock is now fed on corn and soya beans which are genetically modified because they cant grow enough in the world to feed both humans and livestock. Also they use up a lot of our water to grow which we are slowly running out of as well. http://www.worldometers.info/world-population/ Good book about water as a resource and how population is growing etc is http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0141976322?keywords=ten%20b... (other book stores and lenders are available) OFC I could be totally wrong and none of the report is true and its just a distraction technique used by the government run news agencies to cover up their latest crime,blunder,illegal war,etc etc etc ..... | ||

 Help me rescue my Insulina. Member 5366, 1090 posts | What DOESN'T cause f**king cancer these days. Also statistically speaking, In 2012 the UK population was 63.7 million. In 2012 16,187 people died from this type of cancer Thats 0.025% of the population and i think it's fair to say the vast majority will eat red meat. In contrast: In 2012 there were 23,000 people in the UK involved in road accidents who sustained life threatening injury/death. Thats 0.036% of the population. Statistically speaking you are more likely to f**k yourself up in a road accident than you are to die of bowel cancer. Will this change the way you get from A to B? | ||

 still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14374 posts | To add to Mr McLimerick's wise words - Estimates suggest 34,000 deaths from cancer every year could be down to diets high in processed meat. That is in contrast to one million deaths from cancer caused by smoking and 600,000 attributed to alcohol each year. From the WHO's own site - In 2012, an estimated 56 million people died worldwide. It needs a bit of perspective. The only thing I know of with a 100% mortality rate is life. Life is more dangerouser than sausages, and you can take that to the bank. | ||

Also think about how much water is actually used to make things for our use/consumption or even to purify brackish/sea water for our consumption... Making something like a cup of coffee doesn't just require the water you put in the kettle. Every item you use to make the coffee and the mug you drink it from has used water in the process of making/growing it. none of these processes would use sea water either. If however you still think any water can be used then feel free to drink sea water for a week and see what happens to your body there is only so much water in this world and it is not replenish-able. | ||

 I am a bench-only guy Member 3, 10034 posts SQ 185, BP 175, DL 235595.0 kgs @ 140kgs UnEq Administrator | Worth mentioning that the WHO ranks carcinogens by degree of certainty, NOT degree of risk. And they have only ever ranked one thing as "probably doesn't cause cancer". This is a decent article: http://www.compoundchem.com/2015/10/26/carcinogens/ The stories about being in the same group as cigarettes (and plutonium) are true, but that doesn't mean they're all the same danger, only that we've sure they carry a danger (however large or small). I will be having bacon and black pudding very shortly. | ||

All the water where I live is desalinated water. Obviously we can't drink sea water, but purifying and using it is fairly straightforward. | ||
